What are the disadvantages or advantages of steaming?
As mentioned in Treatise on Febrile Diseases, it seems that people who have sweat are better, so they can't let the water flow and they don't have to get rid of the disease. As far as I know, every time I do steaming, I sweat a lot, which hurts body fluid and yang. A director of our hospital recently took over a woman with irregular menstruation after steaming (it is said that she steamed for three times) and treated her for a month. There are countless others who have various problems with steaming. I think the only advantage of steaming is to accelerate blood circulation, promote circulation and improve lymphatic reflux by not exercising, but the effect is hard to compare with exercise. Sweating can be understood as "abnormal" perspiration. Generally speaking, this degree is not easy to master. Therefore, steaming is easy to force yin and heart yin and disperse body fluid. If the person who perspires himself has yin deficiency and insufficient body fluid, the body fluid will be exhausted if he perspires again. As for people with high blood pressure, most of them are liver and kidney yin deficiency, and then sweating hurts vaginal fluid, and the consequences can be imagined. First, high temperature will lead to vasodilation, rapid heartbeat, and increase the burden on the heart. The heart function of patients with hypertension is not very good. Second, a lot of sweating will lead to the decrease of blood volume, the loss of water and inorganic salts, and have a series of effects on the heart, brain and other organs. The specific principle needs to be explained by modern medical staff, so I won't talk nonsense. Because there are many sweats, there must be some food supplements before and after steaming. And after steaming, you must have a full rest before you go out. This unnatural sweating is very harmful to the body when encountering the wind. Winter is the worst. People with high blood pressure and bad heart are at higher risk of sweating. . High temperature and excessive sweating, on the one hand, is the loss of water and electrolyte, on the other hand, is the increase of cardiac activity load. However, it is still good. I have sweated all the year round and now I have air-conditioned diseases, and the rest are basically pulled. Neither traditional Chinese medicine nor western medicine has enough theories to support the steaming of the present society.
