Gua-sha (Myofascial Release)

$249.00

Guasha sometimes referred to as “scraping” or “coining” is a technique where a smooth rounded tool is applied on the body with massage oil or treatment liniment in a repetitive massaging motion to increase blood circulation. It can feel like a deep tissue massage. Guasha is great for promoting blood circulation and breaking up adhesions to treat pain. After the treatment, red marks are left behind on the skin that looks very “raw”, but should not be painful. The redness goes away in a few days. Since guasha can leave temporary red marks on the body, please advise your practitioner if this is not okay for you. Your practitioner will devise an alternative effective treatment for you.
