Gua Sha
Gentle scraping that moves blood and lymph and eases pain.
Gua sha uses a smooth porcelain spoon or tool to gently scrape the skin, encouraging blood flow and lymphatic movement to relieve pain, break a fever and reduce tension. Like cupping, any temporary redness is normal and short-lived. Needle-free, and a frequent add-on to acupuncture and massage.
