It is not worth starting with, and improper use will also damage your health. Please read my introduction below. I hope it will help you after reading it.

At present, there are two important types of massagers in the market. One is the simple massage equipment that everyone needs to operate, such as vibrator and massage hammer, which has the magnetic effect of electricity and current, and most of them rely on AC circuit for vibration massage; Another kind of electric massage chair and massage table, which is not operated by everyone, is also an AC circuit controller.

Reliable massage skills of male technicians include shaking, rubbing, vibrating, squeezing, flapping and joint movement, but the massage instrument can only imitate 1 ~ 2, which is very limited. In addition, if the simple massage instrument is not vibration and light touch skills, if it is not tapping and pressing skills; Electric massage chairs and massage tables mainly use squeezing techniques, and some of them cooperate with vibration techniques. The massager can't imitate the calibration skills of joint movement of cervical and lumbar intervertebral discs, the traction rope skills of standard joints and some friction skills with massage chemicals.

The sales of massagers are booming, which shows that there are many customers. There is no denying that the massage instrument can temporarily relieve fatigue and sometimes relieve pain. However, patients are generally concerned about symptoms, but when they see the situation, they think that joint pain is osteoarthritis, and all the pain is solved by massager, which will lead to other adverse reactions.

Take knee pain as an example. If there are specific manifestations of redness, swelling and fever, there are likely to be symptoms of bacterial infection, such as rheumatism and osteomyelitis. Massage with a massage instrument can not relieve the pain, but will lead to the spread of inflammation and aggravate the pain. If it's an acute joint sprain, it's necessary to apply cold compress to cold therapy to reduce capillary cracks. If you use a massage instrument to stimulate, the capillary cracks will be further aggravated.

The affected area is becoming more and more swollen; If the massage instrument is too stimulating in the acute complications of radiculitis, it will also lead to the aggravation of symptoms. Patients with deficiency-cold constitution should be more careful, because they can't bear to look directly at their endurance. It is very likely that the use of massage instrument can not only solve the original problem, but also lead to new subcutaneous tissue damage.

In addition, the intensity and timing of massage are not well grasped, and it is also likely that the massager is used too much, which is harmful to the body.

Abnormal acute sprain, injury, subcutaneous blood stasis, swelling and other symptoms, can not be given massage stimulation within 24 hours.

Abnormal pain with symptoms such as redness, swelling and heat is not suitable for massage stimulation.

When there is abnormality, it is unnecessary to apply strong massage stimulation to the area close to subcutaneous tissue (that is, the area with less fat and bony processes).

Abnormal joints, muscle adhesion all over the body, tendon injury, or parts with slightly thicker muscles all over the body, such as waist, inner thigh and back of calf, are more suitable for massage with massage instrument. But it is best to go to a more reliable hospital outpatient clinic to find a doctor for diagnosis. Those who have pain, numbness and other symptoms should seek medical advice to determine the cause, and consult a doctor whether it is suitable to use a massage machine for treatment at home.

In addition, the use of massagers should be gradual. The initial stimulation time does not need to be too long, and the tensile strength does not need to be very large. The next day, if the symptoms are not aggravated, you can supplement them appropriately; If you feel unwell or the symptoms get worse the next day, and one tenth of the pain gets worse, it means that the stimulation is too great, so you should reduce or stop using the massage instrument. Generally speaking, symptoms can be relieved spontaneously in 3 to 5 days. If they are not relieved, they need to go to a hospital for treatment.
