WHAT PEOPLE SAY
Mary Jeswald, USA
This is a very useful book. I went to physical therapy for tendinitis, and received ASTYM treatment. When my Medicare ran out last year, I bought this book and tools to continue the treatment at home by myself.
Natalie Saunders, UK
Easy to read and informative, this book gives a clear description of the theory behind, as well as detailed instructions on how to use various gua sha techniques. A must for any TCM practitioner wishing to deepen their understanding of the subject.
Shane Clark, USA
Good book to go with the Gua Sha tools!
Mags, Scotland
Excellent way to relax with benefits of healing which we can do for ourselves. Easy to use and highly recommend.
Giselda D. Babbitt, USA
I've learned a lot from this book, not finished with it yet, but have tried qua sha on my neck and it does help. I have to do it sometimes daily and then again only every couple days. Cheaper than going to a message therapist or a chiropractor all the time with the same results.
Doreen Hill, USA
Beautifully illustrated and very well researched. This manual is comprehensive in describing the history of gua sha and how it works, but also provides detailed instruction how anyone may use the techniques either for self healing or for improving the health of family and friends. Soon to become a trusted source for both the lay person and anyone in the healing arts such as massage therapists, physiotherapist and Traditional Chinese Medicine practitioners alike.
Wendy Morrison, UK
This book has inspired me to use Gua Sha more in my own acupuncture practice. As I was reading the review copy, some of my current patients popped into my head that it would be beneficial for. It offers practical advice in how to apply gua sha to different parts of the body, lovely anecdotal stories putting it into context with the all important history of it being rooted in the wisdom of Chinese medicine. In the past I've used gua sha in my own Clinic mainly for back problems, viral conditions and also for cosmetic reasons (to improve the flow of qi and blood to the facial skin). However, I have learned about so many more conditions for which it would be helpful from this book. I'd most definitely recommend it to other bodywork practitioners and for home use, as it is informative, interesting and an enjoyable book to read too.
Tracy, USA
I am so impressed with this book! As a Licensed Acupuncturist, I found this book to be well written with clear photos and explanations. It is written for the layperson, which is great. Even better, the author outlines the Chinese medicine explanation of Gua Sha as well as the meridians. Very well done and user friendly whether you have a background in Chinese medicine or not. The book is organized in a logical format making it easy to quickly look up are area that needs attention without digging through the entire book. Highly recommend this for anyone!
