About the Treatment

The Ancient Art of Gua Sha Slimming

Gua Sha Slimming Therapy focuses on stimulating muscle activity, especially in areas prone to rapid fat accumulation. By enhancing blood circulation and metabolism, it aids in calorie burning.

Aimin Gua Sha Slimming Therapy was pioneered at the renowned Aimin Hospital in Tianjin, China, under the guidance of Dr. Shi Lidong. Meng Qing Gang's remarkable weight loss achievement in 2001, when he shed 80kg in just 100 days, earned him a spot in Shanghai's Guinness World Records, sparking widespread interest in the therapy.

"This success story in China is a testament to Aimin's unrivaled Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) services."

The therapy incorporates aromatic oils to ensure a relaxing and holistic weight loss experience, making it a sought-after slimming treatment in Singapore. This ancient method involves scraping a specialized tool across the skin — an action that not only boosts blood circulation within muscles and tissues but also diminishes inflammation.

The scraping motion targets and breaks down cellulite-causing fat deposits. As a result, the skin's texture improves, muscles are stimulated, and fat is evenly distributed throughout the body, culminating in a remarkable slimming effect.
