Gua Sha Foundations and Strategies 

Online course: Gua Sha Foundations and Strategies

3 NCCAOM PDAs

Gua sha is one of the most effective pain relieving modalities we have in our toolkit. Learn everything we didn’t cover in acupuncture school including finding the right tool, and see immediate results in your patient’s outcomes.

Gua sha is a simple modality that resolves stubborn pain and old injuries, and helps heal tissues by reorganizing the fascial matrix. We will cover the wide application possibilities of Gua Sha and specific treatment strategies for common conditions.
We will look at Gua Sha from the Western and Eastern perspectives, and understand indications and contraindications for this modality.

Learn about the fascinating history of Gua Sha as well as its modern usage in the form of Graston and IASTM, and gain practical skills to use with immediate results in your clinic.
