You can't healthily lose weight without changing your diet and lifestyle but to help you to do that, here are some Gua sha Scraping areas which can help make your digestion more balanced and better able to digest and process food.

It's when you use a tool to scrape over your skin in order to make changes in the blood flow through muscle and tissue areas. If targeted to the right area, these changes in blood flow influence how your digestive organs can effectively digest food. The better and more efficiently they do can do this, the more your body can respond to changes in diet and lifestyle and the less it will store fat.

Get yourself a Gua sha tool or a Chinese soup spoon, and lubrication to spread over your skin. You can use massage oil for this. Scrape over the skin in the areas below - you can scrape over a wide area, above and below. Each stroke should be a hand's width and downwards or away from the centreline.

If the tissue under the scraping tool area has impaired blood flow, your skin will show up red dots. This is perfectly normal and they will fade after 3-4 days. If an area shows these marks, it's time to move on to another. Do no more than 30 strokes in any one area.

So these are the areas which will help you. Treat them frequently - at least twice a week - but as I mentioned above, only if the red marks (if there are any) have faded.

This area is in your lower back. Feel the top of your hips at your sides and move your hands towards your spine keeping them at that level. These areas are either side of the spine in the thick muscle. Scrape downwards and avoid scraping too close to the spine.
