Features: This book is divided into two parts, providing a comprehensive exposition of the basic knowledge and practical application of Gua Sha therapy. The first part introduces the history, theoretical basis, and mechanism of action of Gua Sha therapy, the three key principles of treating diseases with Gua Sha, the scope of treatment, the distribution of meridians and acupoints, stimulating areas, as well as Gua Sha tools and techniques. The second part introduces the treatment experiences of over 980 Gua Sha formulas for more than 220 common diseases and some difficult-to-treat conditions in departments such as internal medicine, pediatrics, gynecology, surgery, dermatology, and ophthalmology/otolaryngology. It also includes health-preserving Gua Sha methods. This book is a summary of the authors' long-term clinical practice and the experience passed down through four generations of family tradition and teacher instruction, with reference to a large number of literature sources. The content is rich and highly practical, making it a valuable reference for clinical physicians and grassroots medical personnel, as well as for readers with a certain foundation in traditional Chinese medicine for self-treatment and health preservation.
