Gua Sha/Graston

Gua Sha is a soft tissue mobilization technique that is rooted in traditional Chinese medicine.  The term "Gua Sha" in Chinese means to scrape sand; and it simply is the process of scraping away the scar tissue.  It has been around for thousands of years and there have been many reincarnations of it, including the Graston Technique.  Gua Sha works by increasing micro-circulation, reducing inflammation, and stimulating the body's natural opioid system to decrease pain.

Apex Chiropractic provides Gua Sha with the most advanced and functional instrument available.
