Gua Sha is a classical Asian method of scraping the skin to invoke a healing response. Resurging in popularity because of rapid results achieved, it provides massage therapists and practitioners with efficient alternatives for acute and chronic myofascial problems. This 8-hour course will cover the contemporary use of the Gua Sha instruments for fast and dramatic myofascial release in the cervical, thoracic, and lumbar regions.
