Kansa Wand - Facial Massage Tool

Kansa - the Ayurveda secret. Firmly anchored in Ayurvedic teaching, Kansa sticks were used in India as early as 5.000 years ago.

A Kansa massage stimulates the blood circulation and lymphatic system. This removes toxins from the tissue and reduces swelling. In addition, the Kansa bar has a padding and firming effect, skin elasticity is improved and fine lines can be minimised.

• Promotes blood circulation and oxygen supply to the skin – which can contribute to a natural glow and firm skin. 
  
• Can help reduce swelling (e.g. after waking up or due to stress)because the skin is gently stimulated.
  
• Supports energetic balance  - according to Ayurveda, it affects the three doshas (Vata, Pitta, Kapha) and chakras – which has a holistic relaxing effect. 
  
• Made from an alloy of copper and tin (“Bell Metal”) – the metal can become slightly warmer on the skin and thus, according to tradition, has a calming effect. 
  
• Ideal as a ritual addition to facial care: For example, use with a high-quality facial oil or serum to optimize gliding and effectiveness. Michelle Ranavat recommends that Brightening Saffron Serum.

In addition to mechanical stimulation, the "healing" metal has antibacterial and wound healing properties, which promote skin balance, can enhance the effect of oils and serums rich in antioxidants and are supposed to combat redness and inflammation. 

Michelle Ranavat: "Our Kansa Wand is handcrafted by a family who have worked with the sacred metal for over 900 years. I love not only the effect on my skin (copper is incredibly good for the skin), but also the history and deep-rooted traditions this wand represents. My recommendation: the Kansa Wand together with our Saffron Serum to apply" 

The Kansa stick is not only intended for the face, but can be used for the whole body. According to Ayurvedic teachings, the Kansa massage stimulates vital points on the body in order to release stagnant energy, which can help against insomnia, tiredness and cramps.

Application

• Use the Kansa stick as you like it best. Here are some recommendations to get you started:
• 1. Use the stick to massage five times counterclockwise in a circle around the center of the forehead. Repeat the process five times clockwise.
• 2. Draw a figure eight five times on the forehead. This calms the mind and emotions, stimulates memory, and improves concentration. It is also helpful for sinus headache relief.
• 3. Massage the forehead five times with gentle pressure in a zigzag pattern.
• 4. Clench your teeth so you can feel the jaw muscle. Massage this point with pressure in a circular motion. Repeat this five times.
• 5. Circle the cheekbone five times with firm pressure.
• 6. Under the cheekbones: massage up and down with firm pressure, moving the kansa stick from the corner of the mouth to the earlobe and back to the corner of the mouth.
• 7. Move the wand down from the ear, along the jaw to the chin, and from the chin back along the jaw to the earlobe.
  
• if pollutants leak through the massage, the skin can turn gray. This means that your skin is detoxified, the effect can easily be rinsed off with water.
• Head Massage: You can also use it on the scalp, the entire head area, and the back of the neck for stress relief and relaxation.
• Body massage: apply a little pressure to the tense shoulders, back or neck.
• Foot massage: According to Ayurvedic teachings, feet contain many energy points that are connected to almost every part of the body. They connect us to the earth, give us stability and grounding and, in the truest sense of the word, carry the weight of the day. A foot massage with this wand will help you slide into a state of relaxation. The soft contour of the dome relaxes the entire foot and helps you feel light and energized. 
• Care:
• For daily maintenance, simply wipe the pen after each use or use soap and water on the metal part only.
