Introduction to Gua Sha

During this webinar we will explore the theory of Gua Sha/scraping therapy including an understanding of the physiological effects on the body from an Eastern and Western medical perspective. Common indications and regions to be treated will be discussed along with common cautions and contraindications including considerations of consent and remnant markings from treatment. Application techniques will be described along with tips for safe, comfortable and effective application. There will be a demonstration of the application of Gua Sha and space for questions and answers surrounding this practice and the integration into your treatment toolkit.
