It can also be used on the head reducing headaches and improving hair growth. In ancient China, people use to comb their bodies and keep themselves fit and healthy.

Katie, who is 47, teaches Chinese well-being techniques and is the claimed she lost an entire inch of fat and cellulite from both her thighs after regularly combing them with jade comb day and night. She also added that ‘It draws blood up to the surface of the skin.’
She continued, “You free up the movement of the circulation for toxins to be eliminated as heat, using the normal excretory function of the skin. The results are smooth, svelte-looking limbs.”
