Relaxing tendons and dredging collaterals: muscle attachment points and injured fascia, ligament, joint capsule and other soft tissues can send out pain signals, and through the reflection of nerves, the relevant tissues are put on alert. Muscle contraction and tension until spasm is a reflection of this alert state, and its purpose is to reduce physical activity and thus relieve pain, which is a natural protective response of the human body. At this time, if the treatment is not timely or thorough, the injured tissue may form different degrees of adhesion, fibrosis or scarring, so that harmful impulses are constantly emitted, which will aggravate pain, tenderness and muscle contraction tension, and then cause secondary pain foci in surrounding tissues, forming metabolic disorders, and further aggravating the pathological changes of "pain without access". Clinical experience shows that whenever there is pain, muscles will be tense; Where there is muscle tension, there is bound to be pain. There is often a causal relationship between them. In the treatment of scraping, we can see that the pain focus is eliminated and the muscle tension is eliminated. If the tense muscles are relaxed, the symptoms of pain and oppression can also be obviously alleviated or disappeared, which is conducive to the repair of lesions.
