‘Kansa’ (pronounced kahn-zah) means bronze - bronze is a combination of copper and tin and is known in India as the healing metal. The Kansa Wand, an Ayurvedic facial massage device, is made of wood and bronze and is designed to balance doshas, align Qi, chakras and the skin’s pH level. Because of the metal’s alkaline properties, the Kansa wand treats the skin on an electro-magnetic level. The result is the pulling and drawing of heat, acidity, inflammation and toxins out of the body.
Kansa works easily and effectively with the body’s subtle electric fields and the piezoelectricity that runs in the collagen layer and fascia. The micro particles of copper also support healthy collagen, resulting in plumper, firmer skin.
The Kansa Wand is used on the marma points, or energy points, of the face, similar to acupressure. This stimulation of blocked or closed marmas can help reduce dryness, congestion, extra oiliness, sensitivities, discolouration.
