Gua sha update


Two days ago I did gua sha on a willing friend and posted the results here I also included some information on what gua sha is and how it is done.

Today I took an updated photo of my friends back to show how the redness does fade, sometimes rather quickly.

Not so bad looking today. :)

I love those photos you see sometimes of people after they've been cupped :)

By the way, I've been working on a site of all the shiatsu and Chinese medicine blogs I read, www.planetshiatsu.net. Would you like to be listed?

Gary, sure thing!

Tracy, I agree.

Bevan, his case is a bit complicated. I only dream of a day I could do only gua sha on him and he would be all better.

Since you posted on my blog I figured I would return the favor!

Which type of Gua Sha tool do you use? I am partial to the jade with the nitch cutout for verterbral rubbing, but I also have the good old spoon too.

Great blog!

Jing, I have some tools but typically just use a lid or spoon. Glad you stopped by!
