Sedentary lifestyles are a reality for office workers, who spend long hours slumped in chairs with little physical activity. Over time, this takes a toll on health and leads to increasing body fat. As your figure deteriorates, how can you shed those extra pounds? Below are massage techniques tailored for office workers to eliminate stubborn fat.
Step 1: Firmly clasp your waist with both hands, placing your thumbs directly below your ribs—about three finger-widths above your navel. Press firmly for 30 seconds.
Step 2: Make fists and position them below your ribs. Simultaneously massage your abdomen in a circular motion: right hand clockwise, left hand counterclockwise, for 30 seconds.
Step 3: Place fists on either side of the spine. Use circular motions—left hand clockwise, right hand counterclockwise—to knead the waist fat on both sides simultaneously for 30 seconds.
Step 4: Finally, use both palms to steadily push upward on the right abdomen for 15 seconds, then switch sides.
Massage Weight Loss Method 2:
Step 1: Sit on a chair. Use the knuckles of your right fist to press outward in circular motions from the junction of your right hip and thigh toward the front of your thigh. Repeat 10 times on each side.
Step 2: Sit up straight. Grasp your left thigh with both hands, placing your thumbs along the edges of the thigh bone. Press from the top of the thigh down to the knee. Repeat 5 times, then switch to the right leg.
Step 3: Grasp the base of your leg with both hands. Apply gentle pressure while massaging steadily up to the knee. After 5 minutes, switch legs and repeat the same method.
Step 4: Finally, raise both hands to chest level.
Step 3: Grasp the thigh at the hip with both hands and gently massage downward toward the knee. Massage for 5 minutes, then switch legs and repeat.
Step 4: Finally, raise both arms to chest level and gently twist your torso left and right to relax the upper body.
