Gua means scrape and Sea means Sand. Treatment involves scraping or gliding a flat jade or metal tool over the skin to relax tight muscles and relieve joint pain while promoting lymph drainage and soft tissue manipulation. Depending on the level of treatment, there may be redness on the skin known as petechiae. The represents old non-circulating blood and metabolic wastes. Waste produces temporary congestion to the surface tissue and muscles. Gua Sha promotes circulation and normalizes metabolic processes. Treatment is rather relaxing despite the look. Results are remarkable.
