Summer, antipyretic, detoxification, fatigue elimination ... What is scrapping? How to shave? Who can't shave? The following is the knowledge about scraping that I brought to you. Welcome to reading.

Scraping principle

It is based on the twelve meridians's theory of odd meridians and eight meridians, and follows the principle of treating symptoms when it is urgent. It uses manipulations to strongly stimulate meridians to make local skin red and congested, so as to achieve the effects of waking up, detoxicating and eliminating pathogenic factors, clearing away heat and relieving exterior syndrome, promoting circulation of qi to relieve pain, strengthening spleen and regulating stomach.

Scraping site

There are many places that the human body can scrape, such as the seventh cervical vertebra, up and down, left and right sides, both sides of the larynx, bent arms, bent legs, ribs between the chest and back, heel tendons behind the ankles, liver and spleen areas under the left and right ribs, and places above and below the scapula. Take a prone position when scraping your back, and take a positive sitting position on your shoulders. Blue-purple bleeding spots will appear after scraping.

The shoulder and neck position that is most frequently scraped is a "three-neck strip" that can reduce fever, dispel summer heat and dispel cold. This part is located at the junction of the head and neck. If it is tight, it will cause the whole body to be blocked and the hot air will not dissipate.

How to shave properly?

Scraping tool

Scraping tools are mostly special scraping plates made of buffalo horn, which are rectangular and have blunt edges.

Signs of scratching

Cold, fever, heatstroke, headache, gastrointestinal diseases, stiff neck, scapulohumeral periarthritis, lumbar muscle strain, muscle spasm, rheumatoid arthritis and other diseases.

Scraping process

Clean up the parts to be scraped first, dip the edge of the scraper with scraping oil or massage oil, and scrape at the determined parts. When scraping, you should scrape in one direction, not back and forth, with even and appropriate force, and don't neglect the weight. If there is consumption, if you scrape your arm for more than ten times, there will be dark purple consumption marks. Generally, each place can be scraped 20 times according to the parts scraped on it.

If you have a headache or sore throat, find a seat to sit down; Dizziness or chest pain, then take the supine position; If there is pain in the shoulder, back, lumbosacral and other parts, take a prone position.

Generally follow the scraping part mentioned above. If you can scrape all the parts in turn, the patient will feel relaxed immediately. Let the patient rest for a few minutes, scrape more than ten times under the chest, back ribs, upper and lower cervical vertebrae or swollen shoulders, and then drink some sugar Jiang Shui or boiled water, which will make the patient extremely comfortable.

Precautions for scraping

1. During scraping treatment, keep warm indoors, especially in winter, to avoid catching cold and through flow. When scraping in summer, the fan should be avoided from blowing directly at the test site.

2. Avoid taking a cold bath within 30 minutes after scraping.

3. It is not advisable to try scraping again in the same place before the spots on the previous scraping part are removed. The second scraping time should be 3-6 days apart, subject to the shrinking of the skin.

4. After shaving, it is best to drink a cup of warm water (preferably light sugar salt water) and rest 15-20 minutes.

What is this? Acute diseases such as cholera and heatstroke.

When the scraping plate is pressed down, the blood accumulated in the microcirculation disorder will seep out from the gap of the capillary and stay between the subcutaneous tissue and the muscle, which is what we see? Hey? .

Chinese medicine thinks? Hey? It is a kind of blood stasis, indicating that there is imbalance in the body. Blood stasis is obstruction. When the body is blocked, blood and blood flow are not smooth, which will further produce pain and various diseases.

Modern science has proved that scraping can dilate capillaries, increase sweat gland secretion, promote blood circulation, and have immediate effect on wind-cold arthralgia caused by hypertension, heatstroke and muscle soreness.

Regular scraping can regulate menstruation, relieve fatigue and increase immune function.

Why do you shave?

The effects of scraping on skin can be divided into two categories, one is preventive health care and the other is treatment.

I. Preventive and health functions

Preventive health care functions include health care prevention and disease prevention. The function of scraping therapy is the skin on the body surface. Skin is the most superficial part of the human body exposed to the outside world, which is in direct contact with the outside world and plays an adaptive and defensive role in the change of the external climate.

The skin has these functions, mainly relying on the function of defending qi in the body. Stephy comes from Shangjiao and is driven by lung qi. When Stephy is in harmony, the skin becomes soft and dense. ("Lingshu". This is dirty ").

Regular scraping by healthy people (for example, taking Beishu point and Zusanli point) can enhance the defense of qi. Strong defensive qi protects the exterior, and external evils are not easy to invade the exterior, so that the body can be healthy. If exogenous pathogens invade the exterior and interior, it will cause exterior and interior symptoms such as aversion to cold, fever, stuffy nose, runny nose, etc. Scraping in time (such as taking Shu Fei and Zhongfu) can eliminate exterior and interior pathogens in time and prevent them from being introduced into the five internal organs, which will lead to aggravation of the disease.

Second, the therapeutic effect

The therapeutic effect of scrapping therapy can be shown in the following aspects:

(1) Promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis

Scraping can regulate the contraction and relaxation of muscles, thus regulating the pressure between tissues and promoting blood circulation around scraping tissues. Increase the flow of the organization and get up? Promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis? 、? Removing blood stasis and generating new life? The role of.

(2) regulating yin and yang

Scraping can obviously regulate the balance of yin and yang in zang-fu organs. For example, for patients with excessive peristalsis, abdominal and back scraping can inhibit excessive peristalsis and return to normal. On the other hand, people with decreased intestinal peristalsis can promote their peristalsis to return to normal. This shows that scraping can improve and adjust the function of viscera and balance the yin and yang of viscera.

(3) Relaxing tendons and dredging collaterals

Muscle attachment points and injured soft tissues such as fascia, ligament and joint capsule can send out pain signals, and the related tissues are put on alert through the reflection of nerves. Muscle contraction, tension and spasm are the reflection of this alert state, and their 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 and thorough, the injured tissue may form different degrees of adhesion, fibrosis or scarring, so that harmful impulses are constantly issued, aggravating pain, tenderness and muscle contraction tension, and then causing secondary pain lesions in surrounding tissues, forming metabolic disorders and further aggravating? Does it hurt if you don't work? Pathological changes of.

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.

Scraping is an effective method to eliminate pain, muscle tension and spasm. The main mechanisms are as follows:

First, strengthen local circulation and increase local tissue temperature.

Secondly, under the direct stimulation of scraping plates in various methods, the pain threshold of local tissues is improved.

Third, the relationship between nerves or spasmodic meridians and twelve skins:? If you want to know about skin, it is natural to take meridians as the discipline. ?

The division of the twelve-skin position is based on the distribution of the twelve meridians, that is, the twelve meridians has its own branch collaterals, which float on the body surface and have its own distribution area. Because there are twelve meridians, the skin area is also divided into twelve meridians, and the combination of six meridians of hand, foot and mouth is called six meridians skin area.

The branches of meridians are collaterals, and the skin can be said to be the division of collaterals, so Su Wen. The leather theory says again:? Where there is the twelve meridians, so is the skin. ? The relationship between skin meridians is of great significance to the diagnosis and treatment of diseases.

"Su Wen. Leather theory:? The skin is the part of the pulse, and the evil guest will open in the skin and the evil guest will open in the collaterals. When the collaterals are full, they are filled in the meridians, and when the meridians are full, they stay in the house. ? It is pointed out that pathogenic factors from the outside to the inside, with scraping board as a tool and various manipulations, can stretch the muscles groaning through skin and contracture of fu organs, thus relieving their tension, spasm and pain.

(4) Information adjustment

Every organ of human body has its specific biological information (natural frequency and bioelectricity of each organ, etc.). ). When the organ is diseased, the relevant biological information will change, and the change of organ information will affect the functional balance of the whole system and even the whole body.

Through various stimuli or various forms of energy transfer, it acts on specific parts of the body surface, producing certain biological information, and inputting it into relevant organs through the information transmission system to adjust abnormal biological information, thus playing a regulatory role in diseased organs. This is one of the foundations of scraping treatment and health care.

Scraping, acupuncturing and inputting regulation information to stimulate Neiguan point can regulate coronary blood circulation, prolong left ventricular ejection time, enhance myocardial contractility and cardiac output of patients with angina pectoris, improve S-T segment and T wave of coronary heart disease electrocardiogram, and increase coronary blood flow and blood oxygen supply.

Stimulating Zusanli point with scraping method, acupoint pressing method and pressing method, and inputting regulatory information, can have a benign regulatory effect on the functions of pituitary and adrenal medulla, improve immunity and regulate intestinal movement.

(5) Eliminate toxins

The scraping process (scraping makes the skin boil) can make local tissues highly congested, stimulate blood vessels and nerves to dilate blood vessels, increase blood flow and lymph, strengthen phagocytosis and processing power, accelerate the elimination of wastes and toxins in the body, nourish tissues and cells, thus purifying blood, increasing systemic resistance, alleviating illness and promoting rehabilitation.

(6) promoting qi and blood circulation

The movement of qi and blood plays a nourishing and warming role in human body. Scraping acts on the muscle surface, making the meridians unobstructed and qi and blood accessible, then the blood stasis will be dispersed, the blood stasis will be disintegrated and eliminated, the whole body will be smooth, and the local pain will be alleviated or disappeared.

Modern medicine believes that scraping can make local skin congested, capillaries dilated and blood circulation accelerated; In addition, the stimulation of scraping can regulate the vasomotor function and permeability of blood vessel wall through neuroendocrine, enhance local blood supply and improve systemic blood circulation.

The formation of scraping abscess is a phenomenon that blood vessels gradually expand until capillaries rupture, blood flows out, and blood stasis spots are formed locally on the skin. These blood clots (abscess formation) will be separated quickly, and they will hemolyze themselves to form new irritants, which can strengthen local metabolism and have anti-inflammatory effects.

Autohemolysis is a delayed benign and weak stimulation process, which can not only stimulate and regulate immune function, but also act on cerebral cortex through centripetal nerve, and continue to regulate the balance between brain and endocrine system.

The more painful it is, the more effective it is and the darker it is.

Many people think that scraping must be effective until it hurts, or that the darker the scraping color, the better the scraping effect. These are all wrong ideas. Scraping is not as effective as pain, and it is not necessary to scrape until it is red and purple.

Feel pain when scraping, indicating that qi and blood are not running smoothly, and the scraping pain in the problem area is relatively high. The darker, redder and purple the rash is, the more serious the symptoms are. Usually, people with severe symptoms are weak and can't scrape hard when scraping.

In addition, improper scraping position or strength and excessive force will also cause microvascular rupture, which will not only fail to achieve the scraping effect, but also cause tissue damage.

How long will it take to recover after the outbreak?

After the eruption, there were many small blood spots on the skin, and some people even scraped a piece of black and purple, which looked a little scary. The color of the rash reflects the severity of the disease.

The lighter the degree, the less bruise, the lighter the color and the faster the recovery; If the degree is serious, it will be chapped and dark, and it will take a long time to recover. In general, it takes 2-3 days for those who retire quickly, and it may take two weeks for those who retire slowly, and most of them will fade within 5-7 days.

Can I shave anywhere?

When scraping, it will touch the nipple of the chest, and the parts with red blood on the face and feet should be avoided.

Do you want to pay attention to the direction and order?

If you need to shave more than one part, shave your head and face first, and then shave your body parts; Body parts go up and down first, back first, chest first, trunk first, limbs first; The wiping direction of face, shoulders and chest is from inside to outside, and the wiping method of limbs and back and abdomen is from top to bottom (but in case of edema of limbs, varicose veins, visceral prolapse, etc., it should be wiped from bottom to top).

How long is the scraping length?

Generally speaking, the total length of scraping is about 8 ~ 15 cm, which is larger than the range of acupoints. If the meridian to be scraped is long, it can be done in sections.

Cases and ethnic groups not suitable for scraping

1. Diseases with bleeding tendency, such as thrombocytopenia, abnormal coagulation function, leukemia patients, severe anemia patients, etc.

2. Liver and kidney dysfunction, acute attack of serious cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases.

3. Malignant tumor, unexplained mass and severe varicose veins of lower limbs are prohibited from scraping.

4. Diabetic patients have ulcerated skin, acne and other wounds on the skin surface, so it is not advisable to scrape the wounds to avoid infection.

5. Scraping is forbidden for unexplained abdominal pain and visceral bleeding.

6. Acute injury, fracture and surgical scar of ligament and tendon are not suitable for scraping within three months.

7. Not applicable to women during menstruation, pregnancy, drunkenness and half an hour before and after meals.
