What is gua sha?
Discover the ancient healing art of Gua Sha, involving the gentle scraping of the skin using a smooth-edged tool, typically made of jade or other materials. By applying pressure and strokes to specific areas of the body, this technique aims to release tension, promote circulation, and promote healing.
​
Experience the powerful benefits of Gua Sha as it helps stimulate the flow of energy and blood, reducing stagnation and encouraging the body's natural healing processes. Through the gentle scraping motion, Gua Sha can help alleviate muscle tension, promote detoxification, and enhance overall health and vitality.
​
Step into a realm of relaxation and revitalization as our skilled practitioners utilize their expertise to guide you on a journey of healing and well-being with Gua Sha.
what to expect
During a Gua Sha session, our experienced practitioners will gently scrape the surface of your skin using a specialized tool. This scraping motion may create temporary marks known as "sha," which range in color from light pink to deeper red. These marks are generally not painful and are a natural response to the release of stagnation and the improved flow of blood and energy.
​
Through the targeted strokes and pressure applied during the session, Gua Sha helps to alleviate stubborn muscle tension & knots, promote lymphatic drainage, and restore balance to your body. You can expect a relaxing and rejuvenating experience that leaves you feeling revitalized and reenergized.

Join us on a transformative journey as we harness the power of Gua Sha to enhance your well-being and promote holistic health.
