Many dieters use traditional Chinese medicine massage to help them lose weight. The so-called "massage to lose weight" is to promote fat through massage, so that it is often in a soft and flammable state. For example, the fat accumulated in the waist due to lack of exercise can have a very obvious effect through repeated massage.

Massage can be divided into many kinds, with different parts, massage techniques are also different. The common massage technique is to rub the whole palm back and forth, which is especially suitable for hard parts of muscles. Grasping and pinching massage is to massage the weight-losing parts with the first and second fingers. Just like pulling the skin, fingers move on the body surface, which is suitable for loose skin or fat-rich parts. There is also a thumb-based, supplemented by other fingers, twisting back and forth from left to right and in the opposite direction, which is more suitable for areas with many muscles and thick fat. After massage, it can be assisted by touching, twisting, kneading, shrinking, bending and flapping to improve the weight loss effect. In the process of massage to lose weight, we should pay attention to the method and direction of massage. Massage on the upper part of the part you want to lose weight, then massage along the muscles from bottom to top, and massage from the part far away from the heart to the heart. This can make blood circulation better, metabolism vigorous, and increase the effect of massage to lose weight. In addition, you can also promote weight loss through acupoint massage, local massage and other methods.

Although massage has an effect on weight loss, massage alone can't have a significant weight loss effect. Massage to lose weight should be carried out on the basis of diet and exercise.
