Guest guest Posted August 30, 2006 Report Share Posted August 30, 2006 I forgot a detail on Guasha on the other post: the coin, spoon, polished horn, or whatever appropriate instrument used is on a 30 degree angle in relation to the skin, the scraping goes along the acupuncture channels, and follows rthe direction of Qi flow. One can also work on the area above and below the affected area(above and below as respectice to the Qi flow on the affected channel. As to diagnosis, a simple method is to assess the temperature of the skin, if the affected region is colder than the surrounding tissues, then there is cold obstruction and is an indication for Guasha, if you press the fingers to the skin and the whitish spot that appears takes some time to dissapear, that is another indication. This technique is used even on newborn babies, in this case one may use a soft toothbrush. Marcos _____ Acesso Grátis - Internet rápida e grátis. Instale o discador agora! http://br.acesso.
