Old school facial massage vs my new gua sha tool... no contest honestly

I used to swear by doing lymphatic drainage with my hands. Did it for like 6 years straight. Then my aunt gave me a jade gua sha last Christmas and I figured why not. First time using it on a client I saw way more lift and she even commented her jaw felt less tight than usual. Hand massage is nice and relaxing but gua sha just gets deeper into those knots around the cheekbones. Has anyone else had clients prefer one over the other?

Yeah the depth of pressure with gua sha hits different for sure.

Is it really about pressure or more the tool's angle hitting those fascia lines?

Read a PT say the angle is what gets the deeper fascia layers to release properly.
