Health care class

Woke up earlier than usual, and went for a health care class and expected to do some practicals in the class.... Everyone of us brought towels, shorts, some "gua sa" tools, etc.

Definition on "gua sa" from the net:


This is an Eastern theraphy practiced by various communities including the Indonesians, Malays and Chinese.

A proper treatment helps alleviate body heat and wind from the body. It also encourages the removal of toxin from our body via the skin surface and urination. The complete treatment would help relieve headaches, muscular pains and general body discomfort without drugs! It is best when applied as a conclusion to a massage session, as it encourages blood flow through our system.

This is done by using a horn made board to scrap on the back till the red spots appear. It is not as painful as you thought of, and after the treatment you would have a good night sleep.

We have learnt a lot of how to do "gua sa" for ourselves, or even to your family members. Besides "gua sa", we did learn some skills on how to solve small health problem just like fever, headache, etc.

A good experience as I believe natural healing is still better than taking medication unless it is virus attacks.

Here are pictures on the end result after the treatment...
