Gua Sha Soft Tissue Therapy:
Gua Sha is a healing technique used in Traditional Chinese Medicine. The treatment is not painful and feels like a deep massage. The principal of Gua Sha moves, circulates and releases blood trapped in the peripheral capillaries.
The skin will feel warm and the presence of a redness is often seen after the treatment. This redness hue to the skin is trapped or congealed blood that is not circulating properly causing muscular pain, trigger points in the muscles and muscular stiffness. The redness generally fades within a few days.
