GUASHA Traditional Chinese Jade scraping

An ancient Chinese secret, Gua Sha therapy is still practiced by many Chinese

today. You may ask, "What is that?" Gua means to scrape or rub. Sha is a

"reddish, elevated, millet-like skin rash' (aka petechiae). Sha is the term used to

describe Blood stasis in the subcutaneous tissue before and after it is raised

as petechiae. Gua Sha is one technique that intentionally raises a Sha rash or

petechiae. It is a traditional ancient Chinese healing technique that dates back

over two thousand years.This ancient method of promoting "qi" or bioelectric

vital life energy and blood circulation as well as the removal of toxic heat,

stagnant blood and lymph fluid from the body is an extremely important,

almost miraculous method of improving one's health. "Qi" is the constant and

vigorous movement of energy or life force that keeps us healthy and alive.Do

you suffer from chronic pain? Excess systemic toxicity? Poor circulation?

Lymphatic congestion? Inflammation? Fatigue? Infections? Physical or emotio-

nal stress? If so, then you will greatly benefit from Gua Sha treatment. Gua Sha is used regularly by

practitioners and laymen in health care facilities and homes throughout China. The method of applying

Gua Sha involves the layering of Gua Sha oil on the skin. This oil is enhanced either with healing herbs

or essential oils chosen to aid the extraction of toxic waste. The skin is then scraped in the area of

discomfort or at times on the entire body using a specific Gua Sha tool depending on whether the

treatment is for physical or emotional healing.

Gua Sha treatments are not painful. As the body is scraped it pushes a build-up of fluid ahead of it, and

after it passes, it leaves an indention or vacuum behind which draws toxic fluid out to the surface of the

skin from deep within the tissue. The toxic fluid (Sha), floods to the surface and can be seen in small red,

deep purple or green pools of blood, it is also often hot on the area that the toxic heat is extracted. Red

spots are an indication that toxins are being released. Where the area is deep purple the blood is old

and extremely stagnant. A dark green discoloration is a sign that stagnant blood and toxic "qi" are being

released from the system. Sometimes a clear fluid will draw to the surface in a form that resembles

cellulite or goose bumps. Where the skin starts out with a green glow, which then turns red during the

treatment, is a sign that pain or stagnant "qi" is being removed. The exposing of the Sha is literally

removing disease from deep within the system.
