For the 10pm scroll you keep meaning to replace
A wind-down that isn’t another screen.
A warm Bian stone, a little oil, and ten slow minutes on your calves and shoulders before bed. The Exoh Glow Sculpt board runs red light at 620 to 750nm, which is the far end of the spectrum, a long way from the blue your phone is throwing at you.
- Warms and Loosens Tight Muscles
- Supports Circulation and Lymphatic Flow
- Red Light, No Blue Light
- Ten Minutes, Then Bed
Be honest about the last thing you touch
You don’t need more willpower at 10pm. You need something else to pick up.
Nobody scrolls in bed because they think it’s a good idea. They scroll because it’s the thing on the bedside table and there’s nothing else there. Every plan that starts with “stop looking at your phone” is asking you to do less. That’s the hardest kind of habit to build.
Putting a different object within arm’s reach is easier. Something warm, that takes ten minutes, that gives you a reason to sit still. The light it throws is at the opposite end of the spectrum from the one on your screen.
How much a light source can push on your body clock depends on its colour. Two independent studies mapped it in 2001 and found the effect peaks in the blue range, around 464 to 468nm, and falls away sharply. Above roughly 560nm, the potential to suppress melatonin is very low. This board sits at 620 to 750nm. Bar widths are illustrative of the published action spectrum, not measurements of these specific devices.

What the research actually found
Where red sits on the spectrum, and what nightly use does to skin.
Three published findings, with the journals and the numbers behind them. We’ve included the study that argues against us, because leaving it out would be the dishonest version.
Two teams published action spectra for melatonin suppression in the same year and landed in the same place: the peak sits in the blue range, at 464nm and 468nm respectively. Sensitivity drops away steeply after that. The white marker shows roughly where this board’s light sits.
Brainard GC, et al. J Neurosci, 2001;21(16):6405–6412. Thapan K, et al. J Physiol, 2001;535:261–267.
A 2006 paper called “High-intensity red light suppresses melatonin” tested exactly this. In humans, 90 minutes of very bright red light produced about 18% suppression, which did not differ significantly from the no-light control. Red isn’t a magic pass, but it took extreme intensity to move it at all.
Hanifin JP, et al. Chronobiology International, 2006;23(1–2):251–268.
This is the argument for making it a habit rather than a novelty. Volunteers treated twice a week for 30 sessions showed better skin complexion, lower measured roughness and higher collagen density on ultrasound, against untreated controls. It used panels rather than a handheld device.
Wunsch A, Matuschka K. RCT, Photomedicine and Laser Surgery, 2014;32(2):93–100.
These studies investigated light wavelengths and red light therapy as categories. No clinical trial has been run on this specific board, and none of this research tested it as a sleep aid. Individual results vary.

Ten minutes, three to five nights a week
Oil on. Board on. Long slow strokes. Phone face down.
- Put the phone somewhere else first. Not face down beside you. Across the room. The board is the replacement for it, and that only works if the old thing is out of reach.
- Oil, so it glides. Whatever body oil or moisturiser you already own. The board needs slip, or it drags and the whole thing stops being relaxing.
- Warmth on, lights down. Red light, warmth and vibration, together or on their own. Turn the overheads off and let the board be most of the light in the room.
- Long strokes, always towards your heart. Ankle up the calf, wrist up the arm, shoulders and the back of the neck last. Five to ten slow passes each, gentle pressure. Ten minutes end to end, then bed.

Early reviews
This one is new. Here is what the first customers said.
The board launched recently, so there aren’t hundreds of reviews yet and we’re not going to pretend otherwise. Word for word, below. The 30-day refund exists precisely because you’re early.
“Wasn’t really what I expected. It’s heat to so soothing and the vibration is nice. I use it on my neck after a long day in front of the computer”
“I just recieved it. Looks like good quality, good vibration, gentle heat. I think I will really enjoy using this. Thank you”
“love the size and the power! I bought another for a gift.”

Honest expectations
What tends to happen, and when.
- Night one It feels good, and that’s all Warmth, a bit of vibration, shoulders letting go. Pleasant, not dramatic. The only thing that matters on night one is that you liked it enough to do it again.
- Two to three weeks It becomes the thing you reach for This is the real outcome, and it’s a behavioural one. The board is on the bedside table, so the board is what you pick up. Most people notice the change in the habit before anything else.
- Six to eight weeks Around 30 sessions in Three to five nights a week gets you to the mark used in the skin research in roughly two months. That’s where any change in texture would show up, if it’s going to.
30 days is plenty of time to know if it’s for you

Give it thirty nights. If you’re still reaching for your phone, we’ll refund you.
That’s the honest test. Not whether it changed your skin in a month, but whether it changed what you pick up at 10pm.
If it didn’t, email hi@exohwellness.com within 30 days and we’ll refund you in full. You don’t need to argue your case. We do ask that the board comes back in its original packaging, so keep the box somewhere safe while you’re trying it. Every electrical component is covered for a year on top of that.
Before you ask
The questions we get about the evening routine.
Will this help me sleep?
We’re not going to tell you it will. This is not a sleep treatment and none of the research on this page tested it as one. What we can say is narrower: light in the red range sits at the end of the spectrum shown to have very little effect on melatonin, unlike the blue-rich light from a screen. If a warm ten minutes helps you put the phone down and sit still before bed, that’s the benefit, and it’s a behavioural one. If you’re dealing with genuine insomnia, please see your GP rather than buying a gua sha.
Will the red light wake me up?
The published action spectra put the peak effect on melatonin in the blue range, around 464 to 468nm, dropping away sharply above that. Red is at the far end. One 2006 study did find some suppression from red light, but only at extreme intensity over 90 minutes, and the result wasn’t statistically significant against a no-light control. You’re using this on your body for ten minutes, not staring into it.
Do I have to do it every night?
No. Three to five nights a week is the recommendation, and it beats one long session on a Sunday. Skipping a night doesn’t undo anything. The habit matters more than the streak.
Do I really need the oil?
Yes. Without it the board drags on dry skin, which is uncomfortable and defeats the point. Any body oil, serum or moisturiser you already own is fine. This isn’t an upsell, it’s the difference between a nice ritual and an annoying one.
Can I use it on my face?
This board is designed for the body, and it’s larger and heavier than a face tool. Neck and the tops of the shoulders are fine. For the face itself, use a proper facial gua sha with very light pressure.
Does it hurt, or leave marks?
It shouldn’t. Traditional gua sha uses heavy pressure and intentionally raises redness. This is not that. Light, consistent pressure with plenty of oil should feel like a warm massage. If you’re bruising, you’re pressing far too hard.
Who shouldn’t use it?
Don’t use it on broken skin, a rash, sunburn, an open wound or a healing scar, over varicose veins, or on any area of unexplained swelling. Speak to your doctor first if you’re pregnant, have a history of blood clots or lymphoedema, have a photosensitive condition, take medication that increases light sensitivity, or have a pacemaker or other implant. Stop if you get pain or persistent redness.
What if it doesn’t work for me?
Email hi@exohwellness.com within 30 days and we’ll refund you in full. You don’t need to argue your case. We do ask that the board comes back in its original packaging, so hang on to the box while you’re trying it. This is our change-of-mind trial and it sits on top of your rights under Australian Consumer Law, which apply regardless of whether you still have the box.

Product Details
Three tools in one hand.
The Exoh™ Glow Sculpt Gua Sha Board is a natural Bian stone board with red light, gentle warmth and vibration built into it. A traditional gua sha only does the mechanical work. This one adds the warmth that helps tissue soften and the light that works below the surface, in a single pass.
It runs clinically studied red light at 620nm–750nm, and you can use the light, the warmth and the vibration on their own or all together.
Made for the body rather than the face. Legs, arms, stomach, hips, neck and shoulders. Five to ten minutes an area, with your favourite oil, three to five times a week.
How To Use
- Prep your skin. Apply body oil, serum or moisturiser so the board glides instead of drags. This is the step people skip, and then wonder why it feels scratchy.
- Choose your settings. Red light, warmth and vibration, on their own or all at once. Start low and work up.
- Glide upwards, towards your heart. Ankle up the calf, knee up the thigh, wrist up the arm. Five to ten slow passes per stretch, using gentle pressure. There's no need to press hard.
- Five to ten minutes per area. Three to five times a week. Short and regular beats one long session on a Sunday.
Quick tips
- Always stroke towards the heart, never away from it.
- Never use it on dry skin.
- Gentle, consistent pressure. If you're bruising, you're pressing far too hard.
- Drink water afterwards to support your body's natural lymphatic function.
- Wipe the board clean after each use and let it dry before storing.
A suggested routine
- Morning: legs and under the eyes area of the face if you like, to wake up circulation and take the edge off overnight puffiness.
- Evening: neck, shoulders and calves, to unwind and release the tension of the day.
How Does It Work?
Four things happen in the one stroke:
- The stone. The mechanical stroke is the oldest part of this and still the most important. In a small laser Doppler study, a single gua sha treatment raised blood flow in the treated area roughly fourfold, and it stayed measurably raised for the 25 minutes researchers kept watching.
- Red light (620–750nm). Absorbed below the surface of the skin. In a randomised controlled trial of 136 volunteers treated twice a week, red light in this band improved skin complexion and measured roughness, with collagen density confirmed on ultrasound.
- Gentle warmth. Helps the tissue soften and relax, which is what makes the stroke comfortable rather than scratchy.
- Vibration. Adds a massage effect through the stroke, which is why it feels good on tight shoulders and heavy legs.
Together they support circulation and lymphatic flow, help ease muscle tension, and reduce the appearance of puffiness over time.
Non-invasive and drug-free. Consistency does more than intensity: five to ten minutes an area, three to five times a week.

Care & Safety
Wipe the board with a soft damp cloth after each use and dry it before storing. Don't submerge it in water and don't put it in the dishwasher. Don't use it while it's charging, and stop using it if the cable or casing is damaged.
Don't use it on:
- Broken skin, a rash, sunburn, an open wound or a healing scar
- Varicose veins, or any area with known blood clots
- Areas of active infection, inflammation or unexplained swelling
Speak to your doctor first if you are pregnant, recently postpartum, have a history of blood clots or lymphoedema, have a photosensitive condition, take medication that increases light sensitivity, or have a pacemaker or other implant.
Stop using it if you get pain, persistent redness or bruising. This is a consumer wellness device, not a medical treatment, and it isn't intended to diagnose, treat, cure or prevent any disease or condition. Nothing here is medical advice.
