I’ve been trouble to loss weight for a long time. One situation that usually annoys me is that a lot of good looking people around me are fat only short period and I’m the only one who is fat a long time and hard to loss. Thus I’m puzzled. After asking them, their weight loss’s secret is gua sha. In fact, i know this effect of gua sha, but I’ve thought it’s fake. So I’ve never tried. Please allow me to break it down for you in detail.
Gua sha weight loss theory:
-
Promoting blood and lymphatic circulation through gua sha
Gua sha can clear the channels and meridians, speeding blood and lymphatic circulation. The fat that liquefies during this process is then carried away through the sweat glands.
-
Regulating endocrine secretion through gua sha
Many obese people are fat due to hormonal imbalance that lead to abnormal hormone metabolism and subsequent weight gain. Gua sha can suppress your appetite and reduce the amount of food you eat if gua sha.
-
Producing a stimulating effect on fat through gua sha
Gua sha produces a certain stimulating effect on the channels and meridians. When the stimulation is transmitted to the fatty tissues, they accelerate the breakdown of fat and inhibit fat synthesis.
Concrete measures:
The pressure of gua sha must be moderate and scrape 1-2 times per day.
If you scrape with heavy pressure and high speed, gua sha oil must be applied on the skin.

Posterior calf, bladder drainage oedema
In the morning, scraping from the hollow behind the knee down o the ankle and repeating about 3-5 minutes. If having time, you scrape in two hours later.
At night, gua sha from your ankle up to the hollow behind your knees and repeating about 3-5 minutes, you can scrape again every 2 hours.
-
The side of the thigh, the gall bladder helps to reduce fat
The location of the gall bladder is where people stand with the hands hanging down and the middle finger down the line to the knee.
After applying the lotion, if it’s the day, you use gua sha boards to scrape from the roots of the thighs down to the upper edge of the knees, repeating about 3-5 minutes. Or you scrape at 2 hour intervals. If it’s at night, you should gua sha in the opposite direction.
Tips: if using comb gua sha, you can vibrate the circle slightly while gliding to achieve a deeper stimulation effect, the slower the sliding speed, the better.

Scrape from the inside out to slim your waistline
Gua sha plates from the position of the thumb outward to the waist side, the left side of scraping 3-5 chimes after the right side of scraping 3-5 minutes.
Gua sha for weight loss is usually heavy pressure and high speed, but it’s definitely not about strength. It’s the best to not make persons pain. And then it’s good to repeat gua sha every acupuncture about 50-100 times. When the skin is getting red and skin’s temperature is high, it’s time to change another acupuncture. Carefully, gua sha mustn’t be done on persons who are empty stomach or in the presence of fatigue.
