There is a reason that so many of the best therapists use what is known as instrument assisted soft tissue massage therapy. It gets consistently great results at treating pain and dysfunction and It works brilliantly!

If you are a massage therapist or even if you are not, here is something that World renowned physical therapist Mike Reinhold uses on his clients in his clinic and calls it a ‘game changer’.

Mark has been using Gua Sha to treat thousands of his clients and his own body for over 25 years and has seen remarkable results.

This course teaches you everything you need to know to effectively treat:

  • health conditions such as constipation, insomnia and headaches

You will learn how to detect and break up scar tissue, adhesion’s and tissues that cause pain and dysfunction easily, quickly and painlessly.

If you are a massage therapist this will not only get you better results with your clients but also save your hands as well!

Gua sha is a healing technique of traditional East Asian medicine. Sometimes called ‘coining, spooning or scraping’,

You do not need to buy any expensive tools. You can use things as simple as the lid of a jar, a Chinese soup spoon or even just a coin.

In fact, modern research shows Gua sha produces an anti-inflammatory and immune protective effect that persists for days following a single Gua sha treatment. This is why it has been effectively on pain, stiffness, fever, chill, cough, wheeze, nausea and vomiting and many other health conditions and why Gua sha is effective in acute and chronic internal organ disorders as well.

The beauty of this treatment technique is that it is easy to perform, inexpensive and very powerful.

In this course Mark will guide you step by step so that you too will have the knowledge and understanding to treat yourself, your friends and family and your clients just like people have been doing for centuries.
