Gua Sha, a traditional East Asian healing technique, offers several advantages over modern Instrument Assisted Soft Tissue Mobilisation (IASTM) therapies.
While both approaches aim to address musculoskeletal pain and promote tissue healing, Gua Sha takes a more holistic, body-centred approach.
Unlike many modern IASTM tools, which are often rigid, clinical, and focused on mechanical outcomes, Gua Sha integrates energetic principles, stimulating circulation of blood and energy throughout the body. This can result in a deeper sense of systemic wellness, rather than targeting only localised symptoms.

Another benefit of Gua Sha is its simplicity and adaptability. Practitioners can use a wide variety of natural tools — from jade stones to ceramic spoons — allowing for a softer, more intuitive feel, rather than relying on manufactured, standardised instruments. This often creates a more comfortable, personalised experience for the client.

Moreover, Gua Sha encourages the body’s natural inflammatory response in a controlled way, stimulating innate healing mechanisms without the sometimes aggressive techniques associated with IASTM. Many clients report feeling more relaxed, energised, and emotionally balanced following Gua Sha sessions, which contrasts with the often clinical nature of modern therapies. In short, Gua Sha reconnects therapeutic practice with the body's natural rhythms.

If you don't already practice Gua Sha, why not join one of our workshops on 18th May or 12th October?

**Discover the Art of Moxibustion — One or Two-Day Course in Chinese and Japanese Techniques**

Join us for an immersive one or two-day journey into the traditional healing art of moxibustion, where East meets East in two beautifully distinct styles.

On this amazing course, you’ll explore the robust, energising methods of **Chinese moxibustion**, learning how to work with larger moxa applications to clear cold, expel dampness, and boost the body’s natural yang energy. Experience first-hand the dynamic power of traditional techniques designed to strengthen and revitalise.

You’ll then be introduced to the subtle, refined world of **Japanese moxibustion**, where precision and gentleness are key. Discover how delicate, rice grain-sized moxa applications can stimulate the body's healing response with minimal discomfort. You will learn to deliver deeply effective treatments with elegance and care, honouring the Japanese tradition of patient comfort and precision.

This course is perfect for acupuncture therapists, students of other traditional medicines, and anyone interested in expanding their healing skills. Whether you are drawn to the dynamism of Chinese practice or the subtlety of Japanese methods — or both — you will leave with practical skills you can immediately apply.

Unlock the wisdom of two ancient traditions and transform your healing practice.
