What massage techniques must a beautician master?
Let's look at the pressing methods: finger pressing and palm pressing. Shiatsu is a method of pressing a person's body surface with the finger surface or tip of the thumb, which is often combined with kneading in practical use, which will be introduced later; Palm pressing is a method of pressing human body surface with the root of palm or the whole palm. The palm pressing method can be one hand, and sometimes it can be two hands overlapping, depending on the situation analysis at that time. The main point of "pressing method" is pressing method: first, the direction of force should be vertical downward; And the strength should be from light to heavy, slowly but surely. You can't finish pressing immediately, you should decompress slowly. The advantage is that it can relieve pain and drive away cold! Palm pressing method: when pressing, pause for a while and then press repeatedly. When increasing the pressing force, you can press down with part of your weight. The advantage of this is that you can relax the meridians. It can dispel cold and promote blood circulation! Operation essentials of "Acupoint Method": Thumb top pressing: hold an empty fist and press the acupoints with the thumb top as the center; Thumb joint pressing: make a fist with your hand and press the acupoints hard around the thumb joint; Index finger joint pressing: clench your fist out of the index finger joint, and then press the acupoints hard from the joint. Secondly, the so-called pressing method of "pressure method" is to press the acupuncture points on the human surface that need treatment with the thumb and palm surface or elbow protrusion as the stress points. At the same time, it can also be divided into shiatsu, palm pressure and elbow pressure. Let's take a look at these skills that should be paid attention to. Essentials of "pressing method": Because pressing method requires a lot of strength, I will tell you about elbow pressing method today. The beautician should bend the elbow joint at work and press the tip of the elbow on the part of the human body that needs treatment. It should be noted that the downward pressure should be steady and the pressure should be suitable for the level that the oppressed can bear. Moxibustion: Stick the end face of middle finger or palm on the surface of human body where massage is needed, and rub it rhythmically and regularly. According to the different ways of use, it can be divided into finger massage and palm massage; Operation essentials: finger rubbing: the wrist is slightly flexed, and the circular friction is mainly done by sticking to the end face of the finger, which is rhythmic and regular. Palm rubbing method: fingers are naturally straightened, the whole palm is placed flat on the part of the human body that needs treatment, and the arm strength is used to slowly do regular and rhythmic circular rubbing. Note that the technique must be gentle, and the fingering speed can be slightly faster than the palm rubbing method. Kneading method: There are also two kinds of kneading methods, and what I mainly tell you here is kneading method. It means that the thumb will gently press and rub one or several acupoints on the finger surface at the end of the middle finger, and also pay attention to the rhythm. Rub method: grasp a part of a person's limb with both hands, and do the opposite rub action with the opposite force. The advantage of this is that it can dredge meridians, harmonize qi and blood, relax muscles and so on, which is very practical. Key points of manipulation: when rubbing, the amplitude and force of both hands should be uniform and symmetrical; The frequency of rubbing can be fast, but the position should be moved slowly; And the strength should be moderate when holding the limbs with both hands. Torsion method: the thumb and forefinger hold the position to be treated relatively, and twist it quickly with a little force and symmetry. Operation essentials: fingers should be light and coherent when twisting, and the force should be symmetrical and even! The use of this is mainly suitable for the joints of limbs and can treat joint problems!
