The use of massage practices makes it possible to achieve a self-perception improvement, helps to prevent many diseases, and also, in some cases, allows them to be successfully treated. Various types of massage, including self-massage, are widely used in Chinese medicine; some of them may be considered very specific at first glance.
The thing is that the radical massage method practitioners reasonably believe that the correct massage exposure allows you to treat the muscles and internal organs. You can improve the face tonus (by signing up for a procedure of a myofascial massage), and gain a good body shape.
One of the most popular types of manual exposure is the Tuifu abdominal massage. This set of exercises has been known in China for a very long time. Its main feature is an intense exposure on the abdomen (if translated literally, the name of the massage technique derives from "push" word). It is made in such a way to remove from the intestine:
- Accumulated gases that can affect the nervous system
- Toxic liquids and mucus
- Fecal masses and seals
This massage is recommended if such symptoms are often observed:
- Strong irritability, resentment, and anger
- Frequent dizziness, especially when traveling in transport
- Accumulation of mucus in the lungs
- Swelling in the legs and eczema
- Men's prostate problems
- Nodes and seals in the peritoneum area
Correctly done abdominal Chinese massage will get rid of toxins and gases, and will contribute to the normalization of blood circulation. The procedure of the abdomen massaging will also provide:
- Acceleration of the supply of nutrients to the tissues
- Fast and natural weight loss
- Body condition improvement
- Elimination of lymph congestion
- Acceleration of metabolism
- Restoration of the normal functioning of the digestive system
- Improved sleep
Who can’t do this abdomen massage
It should be remembered that the Chinese Tuifu abdomen massage has a number of contraindications:
- Pregnancy, especially in the late stages
- Infectious and inflammatory processes in the body
- Tendency to bleed
- When you have the postoperative period
- The patient is being treated for acute or chronic diseases
- The tendency of the circulatory system to form blood clots
- Stomach and duodenal ulcers
- Oncological diseases
- Gallbladder stones and stones in other organs
The procedures are performed twice a day, in the morning and in the evening, on a stomach long empty. The recommended duration is at least a month with repeated completion of the full course in 3-4 weeks. The massage duration is from 30-40 minutes at the first stages, and no more than 15-20 minutes during further sessions.
In any case, before using this massaging method, you should consult your doctor. Perhaps he/she will recommend other procedures. A more gentle visceral massage, for example, can become a good alternative. It is also performed in the peritoneum area.
