Gua Sha involves a special tool to gently scrape or rub the skin over an affected area. It is used to release muscle tension, tightness and constriction.

Moxibustion is a treatment that uses herb called mugwort. It is burned on the handle of a needle, above the skin. Moxa warms acupuncture points accelerating the healing process.
