Gua Sha is often combined with acupuncture because the two therapies complement each other. Helps relax tight muscles before or after acupuncture. Improves local blood circulation and soft tissue mobility. May reduce pain, stiffness, and muscle spasms. Helps release myofascial adhesions and trigger points. Can improve range of motion in conditions like neck pain, frozen shoulder, and back pain. May enhance the overall effect of acupuncture by preparing the tissues and improving local circulation. At Dr. JHA Physiotherapy & Acupuncture Centre, Gua Sha is used as part of an integrated treatment approach when clinically appropriate. It is commonly combined with acupuncture, physiotherapy, exercise therapy, and other manual techniques to help improve pain, movement, and functional recovery. The choice of therapy depends on each patient's condition and clinical assessment.
