The ESSENCE of guasha.
Begins January 2027 in English.

Online course. Level 1.

Guasha have been referred to as folk medicine, in China. Something simple to learn and use, in your own home, without the need of a doctor. Basically, by becoming your own doctor - taking care of your own health when you suffer from fever, cold, cough, migraines, and back pain. And to prevent illness.

In this online education program you’ll learn about Guāshā based on Chinese medicine. You’ll study the theories behind the method, as well as learning immediately from lesson one, how to start scraping for health.

THE LECTURES

Each lecture consists of 3 hours of live Zoom lecture.
It always begins with a 45 min lecture, followed by a 10 min break.
After the break, we continue with another 45 min lecture, followed by another 10 min break. Then we practice for around 30 minutes, and end the session with questions.

In between each online session, you will read and practice, to incorporate what you’ve learned. You’ll also have the opportunity to engage in discussions and ask questions in a private fb group only for members of the guasha course.

You’ll be supported throughout the whole course, so you’ll really understand guasha.
