Gua Sha is an Ancient Chinese healing technique to address stagnant energy.

 

Gua sha is a therapy that involves scraping your skin with a massage tool. It's used with short or long strokes to stimulate microcirculation of the tissue, which increases blood flow.

​

Oil is applied to the skin and then uses the tool to repeatedly scrape your skin in motion.

​

Gua sha is intended to address stagnant energy, called chi and rubbing the skin’s surface is to help break up this energy, reduce inflammation, and promote healing.

​

I usually work with Gua Sha associated with Acupuncture and Massage Therapy
