Gua Sha

Gua Sha involves scraping the skin with a flat tool in a specific direction. The effect is superficial but powerful on circulation and fascia.

What it is for

Superficial fascial tension, neck and back stiffness, locally inflamed areas, that feeling of "stuck" skin.

The sensation

Firm but bearable scraping, often described as surprisingly liberating.

The redness

The "sha" — the redness that appears — is the goal. It reflects stasis coming to the surface and fades within a few days.

How the session works

I apply oil, then scrape the area with a smooth-edged tool in short, regular passes. The movement always follows the direction of the fibres and the muscle chains involved.

Other treatments

Therapeutic massageThis is not a relaxation massage. It is targeted manual work on the areas that are stuck: contractures, bound fascia, muscles that have been compensating for months.Cupping therapyCups create suction that lifts tissue instead of compressing it. That is what makes them effective where massage alone plateaus.Trigger pointsA trigger point is a muscle knot that hurts somewhere other than where it sits. That is why people so often look for the pain in the wrong place.Sports massage & recoveryBefore effort to prepare, after it to recover. The work is more dynamic than a classic massage and targets the muscle groups your sport actually loads.Osteopathic mobilisationsWhen pain keeps returning to the same spot, a neighbouring joint has often lost its mobility. Mobilisations give movement back to the level that is stuck.PressotherapyCompression boots inflate in sequence, from foot to thigh. They restart venous and lymphatic return — where manual massage cannot work as consistently.Localised cryotherapyIntense cold applied precisely to one area for a few minutes. The effect on pain and local inflammation is immediate.
