Gua Sha: Unveiling the Ancient Art of Healing

​Discover the centuries-old healing tradition of Gua Sha, an integral part of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), at our Auckland wellness clinic. Rooted in a history spanning over 3,000 years, Gua Sha is a complementary therapy that offers a unique approach to addressing various health conditions.

​

The Essence of Gua Sha

Gua Sha, also known as "scraping therapy," involves the use of specialized tools to gently scrape the skin's surface. This ancient technique targets specific points on the body, stimulating the flow of energy and promoting overall well-being. Much like acupuncture, Gua Sha aims to restore balance within the body by addressing blockages and promoting the free flow of qi.

​

How Gua Sha Works

Unlike acupuncture's use of needles, Gua Sha relies on the gentle pressure applied to the skin. The scraping motion of the tools helps activate the body's self-healing abilities, improving energy and nutrient flow. This, in turn, facilitates recovery from injuries, restores balance, and maintains overall well-being.

​

In TCM theory, blockages of energy can accumulate over time, forming masses that may lead to various health conditions. For instance, a blockage along the Liver meridian, which runs through the pelvis and has connections to the breast, may manifest as ovarian cysts, uterine fibroids, or endometriosis in women. Gua Sha serves as a valuable tool to address these blockages and promote the smooth flow of qi.
