Benefits of learning massage skills:
1, regulating and dredging meridians
Massage manipulation acts on the body surface, which can cause local meridian reactions, stimulate and adjust the qi of meridians, and affect the functional activities of the organs connected with them through meridians, thus adjusting the physiological and pathological state of the body, dredging the pulse condition and keeping the five internal organs at peace.
2. Promote blood circulation
Massage can regulate the spleen and stomach, dredge meridians and promote blood circulation. A healthy spleen and stomach can ensure the normal activities of the whole body. Clinically, methods such as rubbing abdomen, rubbing Du meridian and spleen-stomach Shu, one-finger meditation and pressing spleen-stomach meridian are often used to enhance the function of spleen-stomach transport and promote the whole body qi and blood circulation.
3. Regulate viscera function
Zang-fu organs are the main organs that promote qi and blood, regulate meridians and maintain human life activities. The regulating effect of massage on viscera is realized by directly stimulating the relationship between body surface and meridians and viscera. For example, pressing Pishu and Shu Wei can relieve gastrointestinal spasm and abdominal pain.
And the correct massage technique has a two-way regulating effect on the viscera, such as Zusanli massage or one-finger massage, which can not only reduce excessive gastric juice secretion, but also increase insufficient gastric juice secretion.
4. Relax muscles and smooth joints.
Joints belong to the category of bones and muscles, and they also need the warmth of qi and blood. Injury of bones and muscles will involve qi and blood, leading to damage of veins, qi stagnation and blood stasis, swelling as a disease, and affecting limb activities.
Massage can make joints smooth in three aspects. First, we can promote local qi and blood circulation, reduce swelling and remove blood stasis, improve local nutrition and promote metabolism through manipulation. The second is to release adhesion through proper joint movement. The third is to correct tendon groove and joint dislocation by reduction technique.
