The Benefits of Gua Sha: Ancient Technique, Modern Science

By admin | Published May 18, 2026

For centuries, practitioners of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have used Gua Sha to promote healing, circulation, and balance in the body. Think of it as a scraping therapy performed with a smooth-edged tool. Today, it has evolved from a full-body therapeutic practice into a global wellness and skincare ritual used by acupuncturists, massage therapists, estheticians, athletes, and everyday consumers.

Testimonials

I’ve found that Katarina’s treatments have helped me with allergy/ sinus problems, as well as acid reflux, and other symptoms. The treatments are wonderfully relaxing, as well!

I have had multiple strokes and recently I started having recurring stroke-like symptoms. So my neurologist referred me to Katarina. So I started going and the results have been marvelous.

I haven’t had the stroke like symptoms since I began treatment with Katarina, it honestly has changed my life. Plus, she makes the acupuncture process as painless as possible. I highly recommend Katarina!

Grateful to have Katarina who understands the human body and is very gifted in helping the healing process along. Thank you!
