First of all, let's learn about the tools used for scraping. Many people may have heard that coins are generally used for scraping, but coins are not recommended, because some people may be allergic to metals because of their different constitutions. Professional scraping board is recommended here.

In terms of material, according to the research of traditional Chinese medicine, rhinoceros horn or horn is the best, followed by jade, porcelain is also good, and some smooth wooden scraping boards can also be used.

In terms of shape, it is best to be square, but the corners must be smooth and not sharp. The scraping board with this shape is easy to handle when in use, and it is convenient to show different techniques. As a health care use, the thickness of the scraping plate is moderate and should not be too thin.

Step 2 scrape oil

Don't dry when scraping, which will not only increase the pain, but also make the skin rough because of excessive friction. So be sure to apply scraping oil when scraping. You can choose olive oil as scraping oil, or you can choose plant massage essential oil according to your own preferences.

3. Strength and degree

Be sure to scrape quickly with greater strength. During the scraping process, the scraping direction is adjusted according to different acupoints. Generally, a point is scraped 50- 100 times, the skin turns reddish and the skin surface temperature rises. 、

Precautions:

(1) Keep warm when scraping.

Dieters should keep warm from the wind when treating scraping. When the room temperature is low, the exposed part should be minimized. In summer, it is not allowed to blow at the electric fan or where there is convective wind. When scraping, the pores of the skin open and drain. In case of wind-cold pathogens, pathogens can directly enter the skin through the drained pores, which not only affects the scraping effect, but also causes new diseases due to feeling wind-cold.

(2) Pay attention to the scraping time

The dieter should not shave too long for each treatment, and strictly control each shave. It is not allowed to scrape a large area continuously to protect healthy qi. For the parts that dieters need to shave, when meridian points are combined with holographic points, 1-2 kinds of holographic points can be shaved at a time.

(3) Drink hot water after scraping.

The dieter drinks a cup of hot water after scraping treatment. Scraping treatment makes sweat pores open, pathogens are discharged, and some body fluids are consumed. Drinking a cup of hot water after scraping can not only replenish the consumed water, but also promote metabolism and accelerate the discharge of metabolites.
