In the Tui Na clinic, I often hear patients say: “Can you help me massage for a while?”, and also say: “Doctor, make it harder, I’m not afraid of pain! And also, “Doctor, make it harder, I’m not afraid of pain!”. I’m not afraid of pain!”. In fact, this is the patient’s understanding of massage has a misunderstanding, today to say to you, to avoid you stepped into the wrong area, discomfort. Myth 1: massage, the more “pain” the more effective Many people think that the massage pain to achieve the effect, and even specialize in finding a strong hand, heavy massage doctor or massage technician, even in the massage pain or pain to an intolerable degree, but also think that this is normal. Excessively heavy hand, sometimes easy to form subcutaneous bruising and muscle damage, and even cause fractures and internal organ damage. The amount of force should be determined by the physique and tolerance of different muscles. It is normal to feel pain when pressing, but there should be a sense of comfort and relaxation after pressing. Myth 2: massage time, the more “long” the better Tui na massage is through the role of external forces, so that the muscle form changes, so as to achieve the purpose of muscle relaxation. Tui Na time is too long, excessive stimulation, but easy to damage joints, ligaments and soft tissues, but also cause nerve tension or nerve inhibition, weakening the body’s own vitality and resistance. Myth three: massage, the more “hard” the better The number of massage is not the more the better, because the nerve in excess of repeated stimulation is prone to fatigue, so that the meridian regulation capacity is weakened, and the body will make the over-frequent stimulation of its sensitivity to reduce the body is prone to tolerance, affecting the effect of treatment and health care. Warm tips: 1, if the treatment, according to the different symptoms of the disease can be 3 to 5 times a week massage; if it is preventive treatment, 1 time a week or 2-3 times a month can be. 2, appropriate self-exercise can improve the effect of massage therapy.
