Garshana Massage Gloves

$21.99 Pair

These premium raw silk gloves have just the right amount of texture to exfoliate dead skin without the harshness of a hard bristle brush or rough exfoliating beads. Garshana—dry massage—helps to unclog pores, optimize sweat gland function, and improve lymphatic circulation. 


Benefits

Garshana (Sanskrit for "friction by rubbing") is an ancient Ayurvedic massage, done with textured, raw silk gloves. Manual massage with garshana gloves stimulates the lymph directly under your skin to carry toxins out of your body at a more efficient rate. Can be used before abhyanga to prime your skin for oils to be readily absorbed. Massage with these gloves daily to: 

  • Promote detoxification of impurities, and stimulate blood flow
  • Improve lymphatic circulation
  • Promote liver health and assist with detoxification (massage releases impurities in the skin & blood vessels)
  • Minimize the appearance of dimpled skin
  • Promote the appearance of smooth, youthful, glowing skin.

Apply medium pressure on clean dry skin. Vigorously massage back and forth over the long bones, and in a circular motion over the joints. Avoid the heart and chest. May be followed with a light oil massage (Abhyanga). Massage daily in the morning for maximum benefit.

These are the softest garshanna

"These are the softest garshanna massage gloves I have ever used! They still do a superb job of dry brushing, and can be used every day before showering. The gloves are of higher quality, compared to other garshana gloves I have purchased in the past. They leave my skin looking and feeling very nice."

"Well packaged. The material is nice. The texture is little rough as it should be for the raw silk. It helps warm up my body after massage. I feel good flow of energy with regular use."

My body has CHANGED!

"It is amazing what using this for just a few weeks has done. My body is so much more toned and I've made 0 other changes. It's immediately different to touch and there's a clear visual glow. This is amazing and I think it should be more widely known and used!"

Garshana gloves

"Very useful; you can do a dry massage on it’s own or follow with a warm sesame oil massage. The massage direction is always towards your heart, and these gloves though quite gentle, improve circulation of the lymph fluids, aiding in detox."

Q&A

Will there be some exploration into producing this without harming/killing silkworms, if not already so? Opposing mass production, there are revived practices to make Ahimsa Silk in India for sarees. I am vegetarian, but we, like vegans, do not partake in animal harm for our food and clothing materials, etc., though it is less publicized from the vegetarian perspective. If these gloves and other silk products are produced using sustainable and ethical silk-farming methods, then wonderful! Just wanted to pose the question.
At this time our gloves are non-vegan, however, we are continuously working to improve our sourcing to ensure the lowest environmental impact.
