The aim of this study was to analyze the effectiveness of the Gua Sha method on pain in a patient with chronic low back pain due to Bi syndrome through a clinical case study. The method included the clinical history of a patient, affected by rheumatological back problems (Bi syndrome), who underwent a manual scraping treatment program using Gua Sha and a specific Chinese oil. The results showed improvements, both in the reduction of pain, especially where there was a greater incidence, and in the range of movements of the spine. Gua Sha was shown to reduce pain and help with the mobility of spinal joints, consequently providing pain relief, a better disposition for activities of daily living and increased self-esteem.
