Gua sha is an amazing healing modality. Smooth stroking over an area/areas, with varying degrees of pressure, creates a healing release in the body. Gua sha Depth and pressure are always dependent on client’s comfort level.
Gua Sha can dramatically reduce headaches, neck & back pain and tension, shoulder pain, knee pain, digestive disorders etc! Gua sha can also relieve pain associated with carpal tunnel and repetitive use pain.
Quoting gua sha expert, Arya Nieslen: “Modern research shows Gua sha produces an anti-inflammatory and immune protective effect that persists for days following a single Gua sha treatment. This accounts for its effect on pain, stiffness, fever, chill, cough, wheeze, nausea and vomiting etc., and why Gua sha is effective in acute and chronic internal organ disorders including liver inflammation in hepatitis.”
