1, is it useful to scrape your back?
Useful.
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that low back pain is mainly caused by the evil of cold and dampness, physical weakness and long illness, or disharmony between qi and blood in meridians due to weight bearing and falling. Scraping has the functions of regulating blood circulation, promoting blood circulation, removing blood stasis, relaxing muscles and tendons, dredging blood vessels, and eliminating cold pathogen. Scraping can relieve pain and discomfort.
2. Where is the backache?
Scraping treatment of backache is mainly to wipe Du meridian and bladder meridian.
Du meridian yang meridian has the function of regulating yang meridian qi and blood. Scraping Du meridian can promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis, and eliminate backache.
Bladder meridian affects shoulders, back and lower limbs. Curettage of bladder meridian can promote blood circulation of lower back and lower limbs, thus relieving backache and fatigue.
3. How to treat backache by scraping?
1. scrape the Du meridian from Dazhui point along the spine to Shu Yao point from top to bottom by surface scraping method; From the inside out, scrape the bladder meridian 1.5 inch along the scapula and the midline of the spine by angle scraping method.
2. Dredge the qi of the meridians and scrape the weizhong point of the bladder meridian from top to bottom to Chengshan point.
4, pay attention to the main points
1. Choose a treatment place with fresh air and appropriate temperature before scraping, and don't scrape in windy places.
2. Generally, each part is scraped about 20 times, depending on the patient's tolerance or eruption. The appropriate scraping time is 20-25 minutes.
3. The time of initial diagnosis should not be too long, and the technique should not be too heavy. You can't blindly look for rashes. The second time should be done at an interval of 5-7 days or when there is no pain in the affected area until the affected area is clear and plaque-free, and the disease naturally recovers.
4. Scraping will open sweat pores, expel pathogens and consume body fluids. So drink a glass of warm water and have a rest after shaving.
5. In order to avoid the invasion of pathogenic wind and cold, it is necessary to take a bath after the skin pores are closed and restored to their original state, usually about 3 hours after scraping.
5. Adjuvant therapy for lumbago
1. Spine massage: Low back pain can be treated by massaging the spine. The patient lies prone on the bed, and the massager presses along both sides of the patient's spine, which can eliminate the low back pain caused by poor posture and fatigue.
2. Press Chengshan point in the center of the calf, Quyuan point and Jueyinshu point inside the scapula with fingertips or finger joints, and gently press Shenshu point, Dachangshu point and Yao Yan point in the waist with fingers and palms. These acupoints are important for treating low back pain, and pressing can play a good role in stimulating and relieving pain.
3. Massage with essential oil can relieve the pressure on the back and relax tight muscles, thus relieving backache. Massage essential oils commonly used to treat low back pain include marjoram, rosemary and lavender.
6, the misunderstanding of scraping
Myth 1: Scraping will rupture blood vessels, which is harmful to the body.
Many people refuse to scrape, thinking that it will damage blood vessels and form congestion. The rash did ooze from the blood, but the blood vessels were not damaged. When scraping stops, scraping also stops. Speaking of congestion, it is also worrying. If there is congestion in the human body, it will cause pain and cause dyskinesia. After the appearance of scraping spots, it can not only relieve pain, but also move freely. Studies have confirmed that tuberculosis leaks from the thinnest microvessels in the tube wall. Microvessels are blood vessels in microcirculation, with only one layer of endothelial cells and inherent permeability.
When people are deficient in qi and blood, the function of zang-fu organs is weakened, metabolites are retained, immune function is abnormal, inflammation and connective tissue diseases occur, which will cause microcirculation disorder and accumulation of metabolites. When scraping, the downward pressure of the scraper will make the blood containing toxins leak from the capillary wall with disordered permeability, forming what we see as subcutaneous "scraping". A small amount of rash will not only cause tissue damage, but also improve local microcirculation.
Myth 2: Scraping is just a treatment.
Many people only think of scraping when there is fever or pain in a certain part, which underestimates the role of scraping. Scraping can not only treat various painful diseases, but also clean the internal environment, and has many functions such as disease prevention, health care and beauty beauty. Healthy people, normal microcirculation, no rash after scraping; People who are in a sub-health state, have latent lesions and are already sick will have a rash after scraping. The location, degree and nature of microcirculation disturbance are different, and the location, color and shape of eczema are also different. Scraping presents the degree of meridian hypoxia, qi stagnation and blood stasis in the form of "scraping", which allows doctors to intuitively understand the focus, which is the diagnostic function of scraping.
Myth 3: People who are not sick will not shave.
Microcirculatory disturbance is a pathological change in sub-health and early disease occurrence. Scraping therapy is characterized by promoting blood circulation to remove blood stasis, activating cells, expelling toxin and improving microcirculation. Scraping can dredge channels and collaterals, dredge qi and blood, stimulate and regulate the functions of channels and viscera, eliminate hidden dangers in time, find and treat latent diseases as early as possible, and avoid the transformation from sub-health to disease. This is a good way to keep healthy and prolong life.
Myth 4: Scraping must be very painful.
Master the correct scraping skills, scraping is painless. 1. The person who is scraped should choose a comfortable position and relax the muscles in the scraping area; 2. The included angle between the scraper and the scraping direction should be less than 45 degrees. The smaller the scraping angle, the slower the speed and the lighter the pain; 3. Avoid hard pressure, be soft and firm; 4. When scraping, not all wrist forces are used, and elbow joints and shoulder joints can be used as force points when necessary; 5. Various scraping techniques and methods should be combined; 6. Avoid repeated scraping in the same place; 7. Each scraping time should not exceed 30 minutes.
Myth 5: Any tool can be scraped.
The scraping device comprises a scraper and a lubricant. Scraping board should be made of materials without side effects, such as buffalo horn, jade, bian stone, etc. You can choose. Oil is used as lubricant for body scraping and emulsion for facial scraping, which can effectively protect the skin and improve the curative effect.
Myth 6: Anyone can shave.
There is no cure for all diseases, and scraping also has contraindications. Patients with inaccurate diagnosis of diseases or critical illness should be referred to a doctor for treatment or scraping under the guidance of a doctor. Scraping is not suitable after fatigue, fasting, sweating and massive bleeding. Patients with bleeding-prone diseases, such as thrombocytopenia, allergic purpura, leukemia, etc. , can't shave. You can't scrape until the fracture site heals. The body surface of patients with malignant tumor should not be scratched. Menstrual women should be careful to scrape the lower abdomen, and pregnant women are forbidden to scrape the lower abdomen. People with liver and kidney failure can't shave.
