Neck region
The first is the neck. Our neck is connected with the upper brain and the lower torso. It consists of seven bones, and the cervical vertebra supports the head. There are carotid artery and carotid sinus on both sides of the neck. If we squeeze massage, improper massage may lead to a stroke.
Seeing the example of Ms. Peng above, everyone should understand a truth. This part of the neck can't be massaged easily, especially the neck pain caused by illness, and it can't be pressed indiscriminately:
The first is the neck pain caused by cervical spondylotic myelopathy, which is caused by the compression of the spinal cord. If external force is applied again, it will make the situation worse and may lead to paralysis or even death.
The second is the neck pain caused by acute radicular cervical spondylosis, which can't be suppressed. Nerve roots are small yellow branches emanating from the spinal cord. If oppressed, people will feel numb hands and weak muscles. Not only will my neck hurt, but also my arm will hurt.
Knowing so many hazards, how to relieve neck discomfort:
1. Don't sit in one position for a long time.
After sitting for a long time, your neck will feel sore and swollen. At this time, you need proper exercise, but the amplitude should be appropriate, not too big.
2. Pay attention to exercise neck muscles
Specific methods: correct sitting posture, bow your head first, then return to the original position, tighten your chin, and give the neck a force to push forward and backward for about 10 second, which can be done 20-30 times a day.
Keep the right posture.
Standing, sitting and lying down, all must have the correct posture, in order to relax the cervical vertebra to the maximum extent.
4. Appropriate upward movement
Always look up and do some upward sports, such as playing badminton, basketball and flying kites. It will have a good effect on relieving neck tension.
If these behaviors cannot be alleviated, further examination, communication with doctors and treatment according to doctor's advice are needed.
Eyeball site
Many people don't know that you can't press your eyes and rub them hard. Especially for people with glaucoma, short axis, cataract and lens swelling diseases or family history of glaucoma, it is very dangerous not to press the eyeball no matter how tired the eyes are, which will seriously lead to lens ectopic or even blindness.
The correct way: when your eyes are uncomfortable, you can close your eyes for a while and turn your eyes up and down and left and right to relax. You can also apply a warm towel to your eyes to relax your eye muscles. It is not a good habit to massage or rub your eyes, whether from the point of view of hygiene or the influence on your eyes.
Templar region
Temples are located on both sides of the temples, in the depression between the corner of the eye and the brow, which is a relatively easy point to find.
I have many friends around me, who habitually massage their temples as long as their heads are uncomfortable. But some people have a lot of manpower, and some even pinch their temples with their nails. As we all know, there are many blood vessels in the temple, and the bones in the temple are very fragile. If the massage method is improper, it may lead to the rupture of temporal blood vessels or hematoma, and even lead to coma in severe cases.
The correct method: put the thumb or forefinger on the temple and press it with a certain force, taking the degree of acid swelling as the degree. You can press it regularly, clockwise and counterclockwise, or alternately clockwise and counterclockwise. You can also scrape your eyes with wheels to relieve visual fatigue and promote blood circulation.
In fact, there are many parts that cannot be easily pressed, such as:
The back of the head
There is a brain stem in the back of the head that controls breathing and heartbeat. Hard massage is easy to cause brain stem bleeding.
waist
The waist should not be massaged or trampled casually, because there are kidneys on both sides of the waist, which are relatively fragile organs. Assuming that the massage is too intense, it is likely to cause kidney rupture.
Root of thigh and inside of arm.
Do not massage the brachial artery of the arm and the femoral artery at the root of the thigh at will to avoid bleeding.
I believe many people now know that some acupoints on the body are not suitable for random pressing, so we should pay more attention to them at ordinary times. In addition, if you want to massage acupoints, you need to know the following two points:
1, not suitable for acupoint massage.
If the body has some diseases, such as serious heart disease, lung disease, malignant tumor, pernicious anemia, extensive skin disease, ulcerative dermatitis, etc. It is recommended not to massage acupoints at will to avoid all kinds of accidents.
2, massage to a regular place.
If you need massage, it is recommended to go to a regular hospital, while some beauty salons and massage shops may have masseurs who have not received formal training, and once they make mistakes, they may regret it for life.
