Introducing Our New Add-On Gua Sha: A Traditional Chinese Healing Technique
Gua sha is a traditional Chinese healing technique that involves scraping the skin with a smooth-edged tool, typically made of jade, quartz, or another smooth material. The tool is used to apply repeated strokes along the skin, usually on the back, neck, shoulders, buttocks, and limbs.
Benefits of Gua Sha:
Improves circulation: The scraping action can increase blood flow to the area, which may help with healing.
Reduces inflammation: Gua sha is believed to help reduce inflammation by promoting circulation and reducing stagnation of blood.
Relieves muscle tension and pain: The technique can help break down fascia (connective tissue) and reduce muscle tightness.
Boosts the immune system: By promoting better blood flow and lymphatic drainage, gua sha may help the body better fight off illness.
Relieves symptoms of chronic conditions: Some studies suggest that gua sha may help with conditions such as chronic pain, migraines, and respiratory issues.
