Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese therapy that has been used for centuries to address various health concerns and enhance overall well-being. Our skilled therapists specialize in this therapeutic technique to help you achieve balance, relieve tension, and restore vitality.

What is Gua Sha Therapy?

Gua Sha therapy involves gently scraping the skin with a smooth-edged tool to promote circulation, release muscle tension, and stimulate the body’s natural healing response. The technique is typically applied to specific areas of the body, such as the back, neck, shoulders, and limbs. It aims to improve blood flow, lymphatic drainage, and energy flow (Qi) in order to restore balance and alleviate discomfort.

Benefits of Gua Sha Therapy

Gua Sha therapy offers a wide range of benefits for both physical and emotional well-being. The technique can help relieve muscle and joint pain, reduce inflammation, and improve flexibility.
