Complementary Healing

Last Updated on July 30, 2020

The following video I found from YouTube and I find it effective representation to help relieve pain from migraine and guasa.

I know from experience that if a person have headache, it can be relieved through guasa on the shoulders.

If you do not have the guasa board, you can use a spoon (with no cracked or broken edge) and applying massage oil or baby oil.

Transcribed from the video that is in Malay:


Dr Lu Chi Loo

Headache is a common ailment- usually many methods out there are not effective or does not provide instant relief.
For those who have been having headaches for 10 or 20 years, after doing guasa for 8 times will no longer be recurring often.

If pain at the front, perform the guasa at the front of the head.
If at the back, guasa at the back of the head

Two notable acupuncture or meridian points.:
1. Head (at the tai yang point)
2. hands
