Gua Sha and Graston
Gua sha and Graston are two popular techniques used in massage therapy and physical therapy to alleviate pain, improve circulation, and promote healing. Gua sha involves using a smooth tool to scrape the skin, while Graston uses specialized instruments to perform soft tissue mobilization. Both techniques have been found to be effective in treating a range of conditions, from muscle pain and tension to sports injuries and chronic pain. Discover more about these techniques and how they can benefit your health and wellness.

Gua Sha is a traditional Chinese therapy that involves using a tool to scrape the skin in a specific pattern. This scraping motion can help to increase circulation, reduce inflammation, and promote healing. Gua Sha is particularly effective for treating conditions such as chronic pain, headaches, and neck and back pain.
Graston therapy is a form of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization that uses specially designed tools to detect and treat areas of scar tissue and adhesions in the muscles and tendons. This technique can help to reduce pain, improve mobility, and enhance athletic performance.
