Gua sha Basics

Among the vertebrae of the spine, the neck corresponds to the head and face, and is transversed by nerves related to the eyes. Scraping this area can regulate the optic nerve to relieve eyestrain. Scraping Jingming (BL 1)，Tongziliao (GB 1)，Chengqi (ST 1) and Yuyao (EX- HN4) can improve blood circulation in the eyes and unblock the meridians around the eyes to prevent and treat eye diseases and relieve eyestrain.
