Pressing is a method of pressing hard. You can use your fingers, palms, elbows and heels to press up and down on a certain part of the patient's body or acupuncture points. It can be light or heavy. You can press a key to release it, or you can press it tightly for about a minute, and then suddenly relax. If you need to press it again, you can press it with your hands overlapping. This force can be as shallow as skin and subcutaneous tissue, as heavy as muscle, as deep as joints, bones and internal organs. It's easy to practice according to the rules, but it needs stability, accuracy and endurance. According to different parts, this method can choose finger pressure, palm pressure, elbow pressure and heel pressure, which are described as follows:

1. Click

Shiatsu is generally used on acupoints, which can be pressed by one hand or by both hands, so it is appropriate to have acid swelling reaction. Press the acupoints on the back with the palm of your hand, and press the temples on the head with both hands. You can also hold a large blood vessel, such as femoral artery, with your thumb for a while, then relax and repeat several times.

clap one's hands

Palm pressing is used for large areas. If you press your abdomen with one hand, you should rise and fall with your breath on time. Press the back with both hands and palms, press the muscles on both sides of the spine, and move gradually from top to bottom, and repeat several times. You can also press your head with both hands, and the two palms are relatively hard, from light to heavy, from heavy to light, until the end.

Press the elbow

Elbow pressure is used for plump or deep soft tissue parts or acupoints, and the tip of eagle's mouth is pressed when elbow joint flexes, such as pressing ring jumping points. According to the degree of compression, there is also an acid swelling reaction.

3. Elbow pressure is used for plump or deep soft tissue parts or acupoints, and the tip of the eagle's mouth of ulna is pressed when the elbow is flexed, such as pressing around the jumping point. According to the degree of compression, there is also an acid swelling reaction.

Second, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs

Moxibustion is a technique of rotating and rubbing a certain part of the body with fingers or palms and with wrists and forearms.

When in use, the finger or palm is used for rotating friction on the skin surface, and the force is light and shallow, only reaching under the skin. The frequency of massage depends on the condition. Generally 30 ~ 60 times/min, 100 ~ 200 times/min. It can be operated with one hand or both hands. It is often used at the beginning of massage therapy, or at the site of severe pain, or after intense massage. According to the different treatment sites, it can be divided into three types: finger rubbing, palm rubbing and palm root rubbing.

1. Zhimo

Lie flat on a certain part of the body or acupoints with your thumb, and do rotation and rubbing, either with one hand or with both hands. When rubbing hands, the movements of the two fingers should be coordinated and the force should be consistent. When operating the back, the thumb touches the skin flat, the other four fingers relax, and the thumb rubs the back flexibly and harmoniously, slowly expanding from the center to the periphery, and the frequency can be 60 ~ 100 times/minute. When massaging acupoints with two fingers, the thumb lies flat and clings to the acupoints, and the other four fingers do not touch the skin, so they naturally bend slightly. The wrist force is used to drive the thumb to rotate and massage, with the frequency of 100 ~ 200 times/minute, but the range of motion is extremely small. In addition, when rubbing the cup with four fingers, the thumb flexes naturally, and the other four fingers are close together, and the fingertips rub the cup hard and do rotary rubbing. The frequency is about 120 times/minute.

Rub your hands

Lie flat on the skin of a certain part of the body with the whole palm and rub it. The force should be even, usually with one hand, and the frequency is 30 ~ 60 times/minute. Commonly used in large areas, such as abdomen, back, waist and buttocks. For example, the palm of the abdomen should be rubbed clockwise, gradually expanding from the center to the periphery, and repeating.

3. Palm root

The thenar of the palm root exerts force and rubs on a certain part of the body. Alternate operation with one hand or both hands. When operating, the palm root touches the skin, and each finger slightly flexes and tilts. Use wrist force to make the palm root swing and move inward while rubbing. Because this method uses a little more force and the frequency is faster, reaching 100 ~ 200 times/minute, the skin feels more heat, and the patient will feel comfortable and relaxed. This method is often used on the head, back, waist and buttocks.

Third, the push method

Push is a method of pushing back and forth, up and down, left and right on a certain part of the body or meridian with fingers or palms, and it can also be sucked and pressed at a certain acupoint or a fixed point. The depth of pushing varies with the force, which can not only float on the skin, but also reach the bones, muscles and internal organs. The thrust should be light to heavy, depending on the patient. Deduction frequency is generally 50 ~ 150 times/minute, from slow to fast. According to the different operating parts, there are five ways: thumb flat push, thumb tip push, thumb side push, four-finger push and palm push.

1. Thumb push

Touch the skin with the thumb pulp and push directionally. When moving forward and down, the thumb exerts force. When recovering, the interphalangeal joint of the thumb flexes slightly, and the back of the finger touches the skin and brings it back. The other fingers don't exert force, just help to fix the direction. The frequency is 60 ~ 120 times/minute, from slow to fast. Thumb flat push has a wide range of applications, which can be used for head, back and limbs, and is generally used for head, back and shoulders.

Push acupoints to the left and right with both thumbs at the same time, such as Tang Yin and Dazhui respectively. The force of pushing goes deep into the bones and muscles, which is called reinforcement separation method. It is mostly used for back muscles, and the direction of tendon separation is perpendicular to the muscle direction.

2. Thumb and fingertip push

Press on acupoints or fixed points with your thumb and fingertips. When pushing, the fingertip moves in a small range, such as the wrist flexes and droops when sticking to a fixed point, and the thumb interphalangeal joint flexes and swings flexibly, so that the thrust is gradually deepened by wrist force and finger force. Generally, the push is strong, and there is a feeling of acid, swelling and slight pain, which is called "getting angry". Frequency 100 ~ 150 times/min, from slow to fast, and the fingertip rotates slightly when the frequency is fast. It can be operated with one hand or both hands. This method is often used for acupoints and pain points.

Push your thumb sideways.

Touch the skin with the outside of the thumb for long push or point push. The operating essentials can refer to the thumb pushing method and thumb fingertip pushing method.

4. Four-finger push method

This method is operated by one hand. Touch the skin with the other four fingers except the thumb, the joints between the metacarpophalangeal joints stretch slightly, and the wrist flexes flexibly, using wrist force and finger force. The thumb plays a role in fixing the direction, mainly used in the neck, shoulders, head, limbs and other parts.

Step 5 push with your palm

Push it on your body with your palm, and put it flat on your skin. It is mostly used in the chest and abdomen, and it needs to fluctuate with breathing when the abdomen is advanced. The patient pushes up when exhaling, relaxes when inhaling, and repeats. Plus thenar, which is the size of the palm root, push hard against the limb, from the distal end to the proximal end of the limb, and then retract and push repeatedly. Palm massage is often used for limb swelling, which can promote blood and lymphatic reflux.

Fourth, take the law as an example.

Pinch is a technique of pulling muscles with fingers, which can be used to pull or pull a muscle abdomen with acupoints. Generally, the grip direction is perpendicular to the muscle abdomen. The way is to pick up the paper towel and continue for a while before putting it down. This method is relatively strong, generally measured by feeling sore and slightly painful when lifting and stretching after relaxing. If the pain does not disappear after lifting, it means that the force is too large. Generally, take 1 ~ 3 times for a part. According to different parts, three-finger grip method, shaking grip method and elastic strengthening method can be used.

1. Three fingers

Lift with thumb, food and middle finger, suitable for smaller parts, such as shoulder well, neck and neck.

Grab it with five fingers.

Lift with five fingers, suitable for large areas and full muscles, such as quadriceps femoris and gastrocnemius. Both hands can be used, or both hands can be alternately loosened.

Shake it

Lift your hands and fingers, mostly used in abdomen or muscle abdomen relaxation parts. After picking up the muscle belly with your fingers, shake it back and forth for 3 ~ 5 times or 8 ~ 9 times and then release it.

4. Enhanced elasticity

Use your thumb, second finger or thumb, second finger and middle finger to pick up the muscle abdomen or the joint between muscle abdomen and tendon along the vertical direction of muscle, then try to pull it apart, and then let the tendon slide back between your fingers (like shooting an arrow with a bow). In the process of abdominal slippage, it can make a "click". This technique is heavy and stimulating. The patient will feel severe pain, but he will feel relaxed after playing.

Soft technology can also be used after the bullet to help alleviate the acid swelling reaction. 65438 +0 ~ 2 times each time. This method is mostly used for muscles with chronic pain, such as adductor femoris, biceps femoris, triceps femoris, latissimus dorsi, trapezius muscle, rhomboid muscle and sternocleidomastoid muscle.

V. si method

The method of pressing is to press a place tightly with your thumb, press it hard, and then swing it left and right with your wrist to gradually deepen your finger strength. This technique does not need to be fast, and the frequency is about 100 times/minute, but it must press the deep tissue deeply and forcefully, with the feeling of acid swelling as the degree. Pressing is difficult, so you must exercise hard, so that your wrist can move, your strength lies in your fingers, you can't relax when pressing tightly, and you can move at will.

When pressing, you should also observe the key parts of the lesion and find the key points repeatedly. After exercise, make endurance to meet the treatment requirements. Acupuncture is often used to treat deep soft tissue injury and chronic inflammation. Such as myofascitis. The squeezing method has a good effect.

Six, winding method

The winding method is to use the tip of the thumb to make a spiral action on the acupuncture point, such as screwing the screw, which will make the acupuncture point have a strong acid tension reaction. The winding method must be gradually deepened from light to heavy, depending on the patient's physique and the sensitivity of each acupoint. One acupoint is wrapped for about a minute. Then from heavy to light, from deep to shallow. The strength of the winding method lies in the wrist. When exercising, make your wrist do a rotation-like activity, be skilled and have endurance. This method is mainly used for acupoint massage, such as gastrointestinal disorders, which can be done at acupoints on both sides of the back.

Seven. law

The method is to roll on the body with the back of your hand, make a fist with your hand half-clenched, and extend your fingers slightly. First, stick the joint of the little finger on the affected area, then press down hard and roll forward to the back of the hand, so that the back of the hand is pressed hard on the massage area, and so on.

The normal frequency is about 100 times/minute. Methods The force should be even, and the rolling hand should absorb the massage part, so as not to jump or rub it, so as not to cause discomfort to the patient or damage the skin on the back of the operator's hand, but it must be able to move up and down and left and right at will when rolling, so as to roll to a wider part. Therefore, the method needs to be practiced on sandbags before it can be used for treatment until it is very mature and has wrist strength and endurance. This method can be operated by one hand, or alternately operated by left and right hands, or rolled by both hands at the same time. This method is suitable for areas with large area and rich muscles, such as back, waist, buttocks and legs. At present, there are wooden rollers, or electric rolling massage beds or massage chairs for massage, which can replace manual massage. Although it can save the physical strength of the operator, the curative effect is far less than that of manual rolling.

Eight, pinch method

Pinch method is to squeeze soft tissue with your fingers, pinch muscles or tendons with your thumb and other fingers, and the upper and lower fingers rotate with each other, pushing forward while pinching.

When operating, it is better to be soft, so that you feel gentle and comfortable, and it is not suitable for pinching pain. The kneading frequency can be slow or fast, 60 ~ 150 times/minute. Turn your wrist to help when you pinch. This method can be used to pinch the thumb and forefinger, and is suitable for the narrow part between the two bones. It can also be pinched by fingers such as thumb and food, and is suitable for areas with rich muscles and large areas, such as shoulders and calves.

Nine, kneading method

Kneading is a method of rubbing with the finger surface or palm surface of the finger. Kneading is different from rubbing. When kneading, the hand does not move between the skin, and the hand clings to the skin and rotates to knead the subcutaneous and deeper tissues. Therefore, kneading can reach subcutaneous tissue and muscle. This method is gentle and powerful, and the action frequency is slow, 50 ~ 60 times/minute. Generally, it is operated by one hand. If necessary, the hands can be overlapped to increase the kneading pressure, and finger kneading or palm kneading can be selected according to different parts. Finger kneading generally uses the thumb to point the face, which is suitable for smaller parts or acupoints. After strong stimulation, kneading is often used to relieve acid swelling and other reactions. Large parts can also be rubbed with food, middle finger or food, middle finger and ring finger together. Rubbing the palm is rubbing the whole palm, palm root or thenar, which is generally used in a large area, such as shoulders, back, waist and buttocks. The intensity of rubbing should be from small to large, and the wider the rubbing range, the deeper the intensity.

Ten, rub method

Rubbing is a technique of rubbing limbs with both hands. Generally, the palms of two hands are used to rub relatively hard, and the strength is from small to large, from slow to fast, and finally from fast to slow, and the strength can reach muscles and bones. Muscle relaxation can be felt when the force is small, and obvious acid swelling reaction can be produced when the force is large. Choose the strength according to the needs of the disease. When rubbing, use the strength of the palm and arm, hold the affected area with the left and right hands, and move up and down while rubbing. You can also rub the lower limbs. The patient needs to lie on his back and lift the affected limb to rub. The rubbing method generally uses the palm. If you need more strength, you can rub it hard on the ruler side of your palm, which will make you feel sore. Knead until the muscles soften.

Xi。 Pinch method

Pinching is a method of deep and continuous pinching with fingertips or fingertips on a certain part of the body or acupoints, also known as fingering, which refers to needles, so it is often used on acupoints. For example, pinch Hegu point with the tip of your thumb. You can also straighten your middle finger, hold it with your thumb and forefinger, and keep it upright, which can effectively pinch acupoints. You can also use the middle finger to bend and pinch the acupoints at the interphalangeal joints of the middle finger. Squeeze the acupoints with force, so that there is a strong acid swelling reaction on the acupoints. Pinch is strong. When you pinch, you should use force gradually, and your fingers should be squeezed in slowly. Be sure not to use force suddenly, and the strength varies from person to person according to the object. After each acupoint is pinched until it has acid swelling reaction, the force is applied continuously for about 30 seconds, and then the local acid swelling reaction is relieved by rubbing and kneading.

Another pinching method is to pinch the swollen soft tissue with the side of one hand or two thumbs, and push it forward while pinching.

This method should be skillful in strength, but deep. During the operation, it can be seen that the swelling is pushed by the fingertip and sinks. Repeatedly, the swollen part was pinched into dense finger cuts, and the swelling subsided.

XII. Vibration Method

Vibration method is to press a certain part or acupoint of the body with fingertips or palms to make a tremor-like action. When operating, the muscles of the hands and forearms are mainly used to contract, and the force is continuously exerted to form an impact force, which reaches the fingers or palms and acts on the massage parts. The surgeon should give fast vibration and long endurance, so it takes a long time to mature. Vibration method, such as using thumb or middle finger to act on acupoint, can enhance or maintain the stimulation of acupoint. You can also use your palm to act on your back, thighs and other parts. It can relieve muscle and gastrointestinal spasm, but your palm must fluctuate with your breathing when it vibrates. Vibration method is very laborious for operators, and now electric vibrators can be used instead of labor. Vibrating rods are generally equipped with various contacts, which are suitable for different massage parts. The effect of electric vibration is similar to that of artificial vibration, so you can choose.

Thirteen. Wipe method

Rubbing is a technique of rubbing back and forth quickly on the skin with fingers or palms. Its force is superficial and only acts on skin and subcutaneous tissue. Fast frequency, 150 ~ 200 times/minute; The skin reacts greatly, generally rubbing until the skin is red. Don't rub too hard to avoid scratching your skin. You can use finger rubbing method, instant, middle and unknown finger rubbing method, which is suitable for smaller parts such as hands and feet. You can also rub it with your palm, that is, rub it with your palm, which is suitable for your back. Rubbing can improve local blood circulation and enhance skin metabolism. Back rubbing can relieve pain and regulate gastrointestinal function.

Fourteen, the main point method

The way to snap your fingers is to snap your fingers quickly. When playing, buckle your index finger with your thumb or middle finger, and then slide it down hard at the thumb and middle finger, so that the index finger can hit the affected area hard behind your back. Click with the tip of the middle finger, and the thumb supports the middle finger to do some tapping. The strength of elastic band varies from light to heavy, and it is suitable for superficial parts around joints. Acupoint strength is heavy, suitable for acupoints. If you need to push harder, you can tap in five directions.

Fifteen, racket style

Pat is a technique to pat the body with fingers or palms. When the effect is light, pat with finger surface, finger back or hollow palm; If you need a strong effect, you can slap it with your fist or palm. Flapping is mainly on the wrist, which makes the wrist lighter, more elastic and stronger. It can be operated with one hand, or it can be slapped alternately with both hands. It is suitable for chest, back, waist, thighs and joints. Tap with the surface of your finger. When operating, the fingers are open and the knuckles are slightly flexed. Tap the affected area with the surface of your finger. You can also tap with your fingers. When operating, each finger is differentiated and slightly flexed, and can be slapped with the back force of food, middle finger, nameless finger and little finger. You can also beat it with a hollow palm. When operating, the fingers are close together, the thumb is straight, and the palm is sunken, so you can pat the affected area. You can also slap with your fist. When doing this, you can make a fist with empty hands, align the back of the second diet, middle, nameless and little finger, and pat the affected area with this part. This method requires skill, and it should be elastic when hammering, but it can be fast or slow and can move up and down. You can also slap your fist on the side. When operating, make a fist with your hands empty, separate your fingers slightly, and flap your little finger (Figure 9-28). You can also hit with your little finger when each finger is straight. At present, there are many ways to beat with the racket, such as sponge, wood, and so on. Professional beater is made of cloth into a cylinder, which is filled with cotton or Chinese herbal medicine for beating. All the above methods have certain curative effects and can be selected according to the condition.

Sixteen, scraping method

Scratch is a technique of pressing, scraping or poking deeply on a certain part of the body with the side of the thumb. When scraping, the finger force should penetrate the skin and reach the adhesion site or chronic pain point of the tissue before scraping. The direction of scraping depends on the situation.

This method is strong, and the patient has obvious acid swelling reaction. Pay attention to telling him to be patient and cooperate with the operator. The force should be moderate, and be careful not to damage the skin. When pulling, the force is light, and the thumb is generally deeply pinched in the gap of muscle or tendon for pulling. Part of it is dialed 5 ~ 10 times. Scraping and dialing method is mostly used around joints, dorsal fascia, ligaments or muscles, tendons and other tissues, which has the functions of releasing adhesion, promoting the absorption of chronic inflammation and relieving pain.

Seventeen, jitter method

The shaking method is a technique of shaking limbs, which belongs to the passive movement technique. During the operation, the operator holds the end of the affected limb and shakes it like a rope. When shaking, pay attention to the movement angle and amplitude of the limbs, and shake them in a soft way to make the shaken limbs fluctuate like waves. You can shake it up and down or horizontally. Such as shaking fingers: the performer holds the fingertips and shakes each finger in turn, shaking each finger 3 ~ 5 times. Another example is wrist shaking: the operator holds the distal forearm with one hand and the food, middle finger and ring finger with the other hand, and then shakes in the opposite direction, about 10 times. Another example is shaking the upper limb: the performer holds the shoulder with one hand, the wrist with the other hand, and the hands are pulled in the opposite direction and then shaken. You can shake your lower limbs or shake your waist in the same way. The shaking method mainly has the functions of relaxing muscle contracture and moving joints.

Eighteen, shaking method

The shaking method is a technique of shaking joints, which belongs to the passive movement technique. To do this, you must be familiar with the range of motion of various joints. All joints with biaxial or triaxial movement can be shaken. During the operation, the patient's posture should be straightened and the body muscles should be relaxed as much as possible. The shaking action should be slow and steady, from small to large, until the maximum possible amplitude is reached. The number of shaking depends on the condition. The shaking direction can be clockwise or counterclockwise. The shaking method is mainly to loosen stiff or stiff joints and gradually restore normal activity function. Therefore, during the operation, the operator must check the possibility of joint movement and measure the range of joint movement. After many treatments, the amplitude of shaking should be gradually increased, so it is better for patients to feel slight pain. Methods of shaking include shaking fingers, elbows, shoulders, ankles, hips and waist.

Nineteen. Loosening method

Relaxation is a method to relax joints and soft tissues, which belongs to passive exercise. The operator must be familiar with the anatomy and activity relationship of the whole body joints and tendons and ligaments around the joints. Neck, waist, hands and shoulders can be relaxed. For example, when the neck is loosened, the patient sits. After the muscles relax, turn his head to one side, bend it to one side, and then pull it gently to feel his neck relax. The other side can also be loosened. Neck release can also be performed in supine position. For example, when relaxing the waist, let the patient sit well, bend forward and turn to one side, and then gently pull it to feel the waist relax. It's easy to loosen your fingers. Pull the finger that needs to be loosened first, and then bend it, so that the finger clicks and feels loose.

The loosening method of other joint parts is similar, please refer to the above method. The loosening method is suitable for joint stiffness and intervertebral disc lesions.

Twenty, flexion and extension method

Stretching and bending is a passive exercise method used to stretch and bend the spine and joints. Before stretching, we must carefully check the range of motion of the patient's limb joints, and then slowly increase the stretchable range with slow, balanced and continuous strength, and continue to bounce within this range. After stretching to the maximum, keep 1 ~ 2 min, then relax, have a rest and repeat. Don't use sudden strength or brute force when stretching. When operating, the focus should reach the restricted joint effectively. This method is often used in joints such as shoulders, elbows and hips. The operation essentials of the flexion method are the same as those of the extension method, which is often used for hips, knees and ankles.

Twenty-one, the way to attract the gods

The distraction method is a special passive activity method, which is a sudden distraction of the spine and joints with dexterous techniques. This method can make the joint and surrounding tissues move beyond the normal range of motion. The operation skill is difficult, so it is necessary to follow the trend, be light, not brute force, be large and appropriate. This method can only be skillfully realized in clinical practice.

1. Guide the upper limbs

The patient sits, and the operator stands opposite to the affected side. The operator holds the five fingers of the affected side with both hands, and the palm faces the patient's face. Lift the affected limb and do the activity of rotating the upper limb. After several turns, when the muscles of the affected limb have relaxed, suddenly refresh the affected limb from bottom to top, which can be repeated for 2 ~ 3 times.

2. Guide the lower limbs

The patient lies on his back, and the operator stands on the affected side in a lunge, with the forearm supporting the affected leg and the other hand supporting the knee. First, bend the affected limb so that the thigh is as close to the abdomen as possible. Then pull the affected limb outward and upward with force and skillful force. It can be repeated several times, and each traction can gradually increase the height of the affected limb from the bed surface.

Lead the soul to the waist

The method of lumbar traction depends on the condition, mainly backward or forward according to the condition.

(1) Draw the spirit backwards: There are several ways. For example, in the waist-pulling method, the patient lies on the healthy side, and the operator holds the ankle of the affected limb with one hand and pulls the affected limb with the other hand, and the two hands are pulled together in coordination. When the patient's waist muscles relax, he suddenly pulls his hands with great strength, which makes the patient's waist overstretch. This method only needs to be done once. Another example is waist pressing, in which the patient lies prone and the operator holds the patient's thighs and knees with one forearm. One arm presses down and the other arm forcibly lifts up, so that both hands can press down and lift up in coordination, and the waist can move elastically several times. When the patient's waist muscles relax, suddenly increase the intensity of strength, so that the waist is pulled back, and the waist should have a large overstretching action. This method requires great strength from the executors to succeed. If the performer lacks strength, two people can work together.

(2) Bend down and pull the waist forward: the patient lies on the healthy side, and the operator stands behind the patient, holding the affected limb with one hand, bending the hip and knee, and pushing the thigh as close as possible to the abdomen to bend the spine forward, with a larger range of motion each time. When the waist muscles relax, suddenly exert force and push forward once. If a person is not strong enough, this method can make the patient lie on his back and two people work together.

Another method is that the patient lies flat on the healthy side, and the operator stands behind the patient, holding the affected lower limb with one hand and pushing the affected shoulder with the other. After pushing the shoulder, hold the hand to push the affected limb to the abdomen, and bend and twist the waist. When the patient's waist muscles relax, he suddenly exerts force and bends down to push, which makes the waist feel twisted.

The stretching method has a good effect mainly on intervertebral disc pathological changes or dislocation of spinal joints. If properly applied according to the appropriate condition, it can have obvious curative effect.

Twenty-two, trampling method

Pedaling is an ancient method to massage a certain part of the body or acupuncture points with your feet. The whole foot, arch and heel are used in the operation, including stepping, stepping and grinding. Patients usually take prone position or supine position, and the performer climbs the crossbar on the roof with his hands, and then steps on the acupuncture points on the patient with one foot or two feet for treatment.

1. Escape

The patient is prone, and pillows are placed on his chest and thighs to make his waist volley. The operator steps on the patient's sacrum with one foot, and bounces together when stepping on it, making his waist bounce like a pole. If he steps on 10 ~ 50 times, the intensity should be light and heavy. This method is effective for some lumbar diseases and intervertebral disc diseases.

step on it

When the patient is prone, the performer climbs the bar with one hand, steps on the patient's back, waist, legs and calves with one foot, and rubs with the arch of the foot for dozens of times in each place. This method is effective for muscle and fascia diseases.

study

When the patient lies on his back, the operator climbs the bar with his hand and steps on the lower abdomen or acupoints with the heel of one foot, making a rotating grinding action. The power of stepping on research goes from shallow to deep. This method can cure some chronic abdominal diseases.

Twenty-three, other massage techniques

There are many other massage techniques, such as twisting, pulling and rubbing. Twisting method is to twist the skin with thumb and forefinger, which can be used for the skin of children's back and abdomen to treat children's indigestion; The way to pull is to hold the skin with your thumb and forefinger, pull it aside, and then suddenly let go. There can be a "click" sound, which can be pulled for more than ten times until the skin is red, which can cure heatstroke and indigestion. The wiping method is to press a skin or acupoint with the finger surface of the thumb, and then separate it to both sides. It is often used to wipe the forehead and treat symptoms such as headache and visual fatigue.
