There are more than a dozen scraping techniques, the most commonly used of which is: holding the scraper in your hand, with the thick side of the scraper against your palm during treatment, and the thin side of the scraper against your palm during health care. The scraping direction is from the neck to the back, abdomen, upper limbs and then to the lower limbs, scrape from top to bottom, and scrape the chest from inside to outside. The scraper and scraping direction are generally kept at 45 degrees to 90 degrees for scraping. The scraping board must be disinfected. The scraping time is generally 3-5 minutes for each part, and the longest time should not exceed 20 minutes. For some patients who have no sha or little sha, you cannot force them to have sha. The principle is to make the patients feel comfortable. Generally, you should wait 3 to 5 days after the first scraping and then do the second scraping after the sha subsides. One to two days after the appearance of sha, the skin may feel mildly painful and itchy. These reactions are normal.

Gua Sha therapy can cause certain damage to the skin, so you have to wait for a while after one scraping, generally about five to seven days, before doing a second scraping. Gua Sha therapy has the effects of promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, adjusting yin and yang, relaxing muscles and tendons, and eliminating toxins.
