Gua sha is another healing technique of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It involves repeated pressured strokes over lubricated skin with the smooth edge of a jade plate or water buffalo horn. It is especially effective for resolving musculo-skeletal pain, preventing common cold and flu, bronchitis, asthma, as well as any chronic disorder involving pain, systemic toxicity, poor circulation, physical and emotional stress, and migraines. Gua Sha produces an anti-inflammatory and immune protective effect.
