Guasha mainly uses the scraping force to stimulate the body's acupoints, which then reflects to the human brain, promoting blood circulation, clearing meridians, and relieving fatigue. Today, I will bring you some common knowledge about the functions of Guasha. Let's take a look at what it is.
Five Steps of Guasha for a Flat Lower Abdomen
Traditional Chinese medicine often says that there are many meridians and collaterals running through the lower abdomen of the human body. If there is too much fat in the belly, it will protrude, causing blockage of the meridians and hindering the circulation of qi and blood. Some qi, blood, and nutrients cannot be transported to the required areas, and metabolic waste cannot be discharged smoothly, resulting in gradual obesity. In order to dredge the meridians in the lower abdomen and solve the problem of obesity from the root, Guasha is necessary. Now let's understand the Guasha waist slimming method. With just five steps, you can easily get rid of the excess fat in your waist and abdomen.
The Slimming Principle of Guasha Waist
Guasha can accelerate the flow of qi and blood in our body and promote metabolism, effectively improving the blockage of the seven meridians and collaterals in the waist. It can also improve previous problems such as constipation. Generally speaking, if you scrape once a day and persist for three days to a week, you can significantly improve constipation. After scraping continuously for half a month to a month, you will feel a significant reduction in the excess fat in the waist and abdomen, and your body will become lighter.
Steps of Guasha Waist Slimming
1. Start by dropping a few drops of essential oil in your palm, rub it with your palms until it is warm, and evenly apply it to the waist and abdomen. Use both hands alternately to push and knead the waist and abdomen from bottom to top. In this massaging motion, the essential oil can be better absorbed by the skin.
2. Before scraping, it is better to massage first. Use both hands to lift the abdomen. When the flesh of the waist and abdomen becomes soft, then start scraping. This will have a better slimming effect on the waist.
3. Make a fist with one hand and use the knuckles to make circles on the abdomen. You can also gently pound or pat the waist and abdomen with both hands, paying attention not to use too much force. You can also lightly pinch the flesh on the waist or lift it upward.
4. Identify some acupoints on the abdomen and scrape them quickly and forcefully in a small range. The slimming effect on the abdomen is quite good. As long as you persist for a week, you will find that your belly fat is gradually decreasing.
5. The scraping direction on the waist and abdomen is from top to bottom, starting from a little below the chest and scraping down to the lower abdomen, from inside to outside, with moderate force. Generally, scrape for fifteen minutes. When you feel the skin on the lower abdomen is warm, it is enough.

Precautions for Guasha
When scraping, the pores of the skin open, which is conducive to expelling pathogenic factors and enhancing the therapeutic effect. The scraping should be done in a suitable environment and according to the physique of the person receiving the treatment.
1. Keep Warm during Guasha
When receiving Guasha treatment, the person should avoid wind and keep warm. If the room temperature is low, try to minimize the exposed areas. In high temperatures during summer, do not scrape in front of a fan or in places with convection wind. When scraping, if encountering wind and cold, the pathogenic factors can directly enter the body through the open pores, which not only affects the therapeutic effect of Guasha but also can cause new diseases due to wind and cold.
