With the improvement of the material standard of living, people's pursuit of health is more and more intense, and massage as a physical treatment and health care, for more and more people love. But for massage, many people have a serious misunderstanding of the understanding, that is: massage, manipulation of heavy strength, the more pain the more effective.
People in the beginning of being massaged, often feel very painful, but feel comfortable, a little longer, it seems to feel as if the strength is not enough, the sense of comfort has decreased. In fact, this is not the strength of the lighter, but in the heavier external force, the local muscle fatigue, elasticity is weakened, the sensitivity to pain is reduced.
In fact, massage as a kind of external force, the reason why the body can be adjusted and treatment of disease, in addition to the corresponding meridians and acupuncture points of the stimulation, but also lies in this force to reach the implementation of parts of the way is soft, can be adapted to the body and accept, play a benign regulatory role. There are four basic requirements of massage: even, soft, strong, continuous, of which soft is very important, this is also the massage and not soft, not for the human body to adapt and accept the "foreign violence" difference. Therefore, only when the massage technique is strong and soft, in order to maximize the therapeutic effect. While emphasizing the strength of the technique, often cause damage to the patient, not only can not play a therapeutic role, but will aggravate the condition. China's famous Ming Dynasty physician Zhang Jiebin in the "class of scripture" in the strong attack on the application of brute force massage practitioners, and warned people not to mistakenly believe that the strength of the technique must be heavy, to produce pain to have effect. Another common misconception about massage is the timing of massage for pain. Some people have pain immediately go to massage, that the sooner the massage the more pain can be eliminated, in fact, in the acute onset of pain, especially the local tissue redness and swelling is obvious, try not to receive massage, otherwise it is easy to lead to acute myofasciitis, aggravate the condition, prolong the pain time.
In short, to determine whether the massage is effective, should not be pain or no pain to measure, generally when the massage appears in the local heat or soft feeling, the whole body slightly sweating, red face, hiccups and farts and other manifestations, are suggestive of effective massage stimulation intensity has been achieved. Finally remind readers, massage, preferred hospital massage or formal, professional massage places, can not go to the small store without qualification massage!
