What is the principle of TCM massage? What's the effect?
(1) dredge meridians. Huangdi Neijing said: "The meridians are impassable; The disease was born in non-human, and the treatment method is massage, which shows that massage has the function of dredging meridians. For example, pressing Zusanli and pushing spleen meridian can increase the secretion function of digestive juice. From the point of view of modern medicine, massage mainly stimulates peripheral nerves, promotes blood and lymph circulation and the metabolic process between tissues, thus coordinating the functions between tissues and organs and improving the metabolic level of functions.

(2) reconcile qi and blood. Luo Hong, a health care practitioner in the Ming Dynasty, said in the book Immortal Immortal Immortality: "Massage can dredge the orifices and spin Wei Rong". Wei Rong here means to harmonize qi and blood. Because massage is soft and gentle, along the meridians and acupoints, through the conduction of meridians to adjust the whole body, so as to reconcile the qi and blood of the camp and guard and enhance the health of the body. Modern medicine believes that the mechanical stimulation of massage can increase the temperature of local tissues, promote the expansion of capillaries, improve blood and lymphatic circulation, reduce blood viscosity, reduce peripheral vascular resistance and reduce the burden on the heart, so it can prevent and treat cardiovascular diseases.

(3) improve the body's immunity. Such as infantile dysentery, the symptoms are relieved or disappeared after massage; When the child has dry and wet rales in his lungs, press the small stripes. Palm stripes are effective. Someone did a health massage of the same age group in parallel with the control group. After massage, the incidence of children decreased, and their height, weight and appetite were higher than those of the control group. The above clinical practice and other animal experiments have proved that massage has the functions of anti-inflammation, antipyretic, enhancing immunity and enhancing human disease resistance.

It is precisely because massage can dredge meridians. Make qi and blood flow around and keep the balance of yin and yang in the body, so after massage, you can feel relaxed muscles and flexible joints, make people refreshed and eliminate fatigue, which plays an important role in ensuring good health.

The principle of massage is to achieve the balance between viscera and corresponding tissues and organs through the action of meridians and acupoints, accelerate the metabolism of the body, repair various physical injuries, and achieve the purpose of preventing and treating diseases.

It can also be said that massage is to adjust the balance between zang-fu organs through meridians and acupoints, accelerate metabolism and repair various injuries, so as to achieve the purpose of preventing and treating diseases.

After high-intensity exercise, lactic acid, an intermediate product of metabolism, is produced in large quantities and deposited in muscle tissue, resulting in muscle spasm, pain and fatigue. If you massage tired muscles, you can promote the dissipation and discharge of lactic acid, relieve pain and eliminate fatigue.
