Gua Sha
Gua Sha is a traditional healing technique involving gentle scraping of the skin with a smooth-edged tool, usually made of jade or stone. This practice aims to stimulate blood flow, promote lymphatic drainage, and reduce muscle tension. It can create temporary redness or bruising, indicating increased circulation. Gua Sha is often used to alleviate pain, improve skin appearance, and support overall wellness. While generally safe when performed correctly, it’s advisable to consult with a trained practitioner, especially for those with certain health conditions or skin sensitivities.
