GUA SHA
SCRAPING AND HEALING...
GuaSha is an ancient Chinese medical technique used to stimulate blood and qi flow which in turn reduces inflammation, pain and discomfort. Using a tool the therapist will rub over lubricated skin to break up stagnation/congestion in the muscles and fascia. This will produce petichia (raised redness) on the skin yet also provide immediate relief of muscle tension and stiffness.
