1, sweating, okay?
(1) Is it better to sweat faster or slower?
Sweat quickly. Sweating fast means that the pores are unobstructed, not blocked, the body fluid circulates well, and the garbage and toxins in the body are discharged faster. On the contrary, slow sweating indicates that sweat glands may be blocked and qi and blood may not run smoothly. So you'd better sweat faster when steaming.
(2) Causes of slow sweating
Sweating is slow and less when steaming, probably because sweat glands have not been opened, which often happens to people who steam for the first time. In addition, people with underdeveloped sweat glands, cold body, insufficient qi and blood, or heavy body moisture will sweat slowly when they go to sweat.
(3) How to improve the slowness of sweating?
The first trick: sweating often can open sweat glands, promote blood circulation, help regulate cold constitution, and increase sweating speed.
The second measure: drink more hot water when sweating. Drinking hot water can raise body temperature, increase body fluids and help accelerate perspiration.
The third measure: take a bath and wash your face before steaming, which can wash away the dirt in the pores and help improve the slowness of sweating caused by clogged pores.
(4) Tips
Sweating is good for health, but we also need to pay attention to some matters, otherwise it will be harmful to health.
1, people with bleeding tendency, female menstrual period, severe hypertension, serious heart disease, pacemaker, tuberculosis, acute disease, terminal cancer, high fever, malignant tumor patients, infectious skin diseases and other people who can't withstand high temperature should not sweat.
2. Steaming has many advantages, but it should be moderate and not too frequent. It is generally recommended that 5-6 times a month is enough.
2. the benefits of steaming
In the steaming process, the human body perspires constantly at high temperature, and the tourmaline in the steaming room can release far infrared rays. The body can not only effectively detoxify and beautify, but also help to lower blood pressure and improve the body's immunity.
(1) Whitening skin
Sweating can help skin whiten because in the process of steaming, the far infrared rays released by tourmaline can penetrate deep into the bottom of the skin, so that your skin can activate skin cells under the irradiation of such far infrared rays, promote the metabolism of skin cells, discharge the waste remaining in the cells, and discharge the aged cells, making the steamed skin more white and delicate.
(2) lose weight and lose weight
Regular steaming can effectively help you lose weight. The process of steaming can accelerate the metabolism of the body, and because of the temperature, steaming for half an hour can eliminate a lot of sweat and consume a lot of calories. For obese people, not dieting and not exercising is a way to lose weight. But remember, steaming is not suitable for all obese people. Therefore, parents who want to lose weight should think clearly in advance why they are obese.
(3) detoxification and beauty
Unlike sauna, steaming relies entirely on high temperature to make people sweat a lot. The average person can stay in a steaming room at about 35 degrees Celsius for about an hour without worrying about chest tightness and shortness of breath. Because of this, steaming has enough time for the human body to slowly accept the negative ions, sub-ions and other elements released by it, helping the body to better discharge toxins.
(4) improve the body's immunity
The far infrared rays released by tourmaline in steaming can effectively improve the activity of cells, thus promoting the circulation of lymph, accelerating the excretion of harmful substances such as heavy metals and toxins in the body, effectively improving the immune function of the whole body and helping to improve the immunity of the body.
(5) lowering blood pressure and calming nerves
Sweating is a leisure way, which can effectively lower blood pressure. Tourmaline in the steaming process, after high temperature heating, releases far infrared rays, negative ions and other beneficial substances to help the body adjust itself well. In particular, the self-regulation of autonomic nerves is helpful to relieve nervous tension, insomnia, headache and other uncomfortable symptoms.
(6) Improve the body's adaptability.
As mentioned above, tourmaline can release far infrared rays during steaming, penetrate deep into the bottom of skin, effectively dredge meridians and promote blood circulation. However, human body strain can easily lead to pain such as lactic acid accumulation and insufficient cell activity in the affected area, which can be relieved by steaming and improved.
3. Disadvantages of steaming
When steaming, the body is at a high temperature, which is not suitable for everyone. Especially for male friends, frequent sweating may affect fertility.
(1) may increase the heart burden.
In the process of steaming, because of the high temperature, the human body will sweat a lot, resulting in excessive loss of body fluids, electrolyte disorder in the body, and a burden on the heart. Therefore, friends who want to sweat must not patronize every day.
(2) It may affect male fertility.
When steaming, the temperature is generally maintained at about 40 degrees Celsius, while the requirements of male sperm on temperature are relatively strict. Often steaming, allowing sperm to grow at high temperature will affect sperm growth, which will seriously affect sperm vitality and lead to male infertility. Male friends who are planning to have children must not covet the comfort of steaming.
4. How to reduce the disadvantages of steaming?
To reduce the disadvantages of steaming, we should pay special attention to the following methods:
1. Is it suitable for steaming? First, make sure you don't have cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases. Women are not in menstruation or pregnancy, nor are they in a state of excessive fatigue, satiated with food or fasting.
2. How long does it take to steam? Generally, the steaming time is controlled at about 45 minutes each time, and water should be replenished in time.
3. How often do you steam? Generally, it can be steamed 1 time a week, with no more than 2 times at most.
4. Note after steaming: Women should remove makeup before steaming. Don't go in and out of the steaming room frequently when steaming, and drink warm water in moderation. If you feel dizzy and other discomfort during steaming, you should stop steaming immediately. After a proper rest, the discomfort disappears and then continues. Don't take a shower, eat cold drinks, drink cold water or other things immediately after steaming, pay attention to keep warm and so on.
5. Who is not suitable for steaming?
Menstrual women: Menstrual women have low physical resistance. When they frequently go in and out of the steaming room, cold and heat alternate many times, which is easy to cause cold virus and bacterial infection and affect their health.
Old people: the organs of the old people are declining to varying degrees. Forced sweating can easily lead to electrolyte disorder and decreased respiratory function. Failure to get enough oxygen in time is harmful to health and life-threatening.
Overworked or hungry people: The cell tension in this kind of human body is poor, and the tolerance to hot and cold stimuli will be reduced, which is easy to cause symptoms such as collapse and edema.
Patients with heart disease and hypertension: The high temperature, low humidity, fast air flow and low oxygen content in the steaming room can lead to a rapid heartbeat and a sharp increase in blood pressure, which will aggravate the heart load and easily lead to hypertension, heart attack, accidents and even life-threatening.
