How often is gua sha appropriate for cupping?

Try to keep the frequency low. Cupping and gua sha are the same principle, here is about cupping.

1. Cupping to remove illness and hurt yourself at the same time.

First of all, it is recommended that you do less cupping, cupping is a more important kind of traditional Chinese medicine, but you need to be cautious when using, cupping is 1000 to hurt the enemy, 800 self-damage.

Why? Let's talk about the principle of cupping, and you will know what it is.

2. Cupping takes away righteousness and disturbs health.

In fact, the human body itself is very intelligent, and it is the first consideration of the body to let the body function.

If the body's spleen and stomach are not mobilized enough, the flow of many capillaries and small meridians in the human body is almost stagnant, and garbage is easy to accumulate in these places, resulting in congestion. After a long time, it slowly became a disease.

Cupping is to use external force to suck these blocked places on the body, figuratively speaking, to suck these blocked places. But cupping will not be so smart, only suck up the body's garbage, not the body's righteous qi, it will suck everything it wants, which will inevitably disturb the normal balance of the body's health qi.

3. Don't cupping on an empty stomach.

In addition, in any professional cupping place, before cupping, you will be asked whether you have eaten, if the body qi and blood are not full enough, cupping on an empty stomach, it is easy to panic and sweat.

Cupping itself is also a palliative rather than a curative method, can not fundamentally nourish the body, in the face of the body in the blockage more, occasionally use it, can make the body feel more relaxed, after a period of time will return to the previous state.

4. Solve problems and grasp the fundamentals.

Only by solving the problem, grasping the essence, improving the power of self-movement, and filling the qi and blood can we solve the problem fundamentally.

For many people, the more general suggestions are as follows, it is usually appropriate to exercise more, promote blood circulation, pay attention to regulating the spleen and stomach, enhance the power of transport, and at the same time replenish kidney qi, good kidney qi, good qi and blood, good spleen and stomach luck. The body as a whole will develop in a benign direction, getting better and better, and maintaining a better state of health. In this way, the five internal organs are kept healthy, and the body will naturally glow healthy and beautiful from the inside out.

When you have more energy, you will find that your luck is much better.

Gua sha and cupping should be done at least half a month apart. It is usually done every 20 days or once a month.

Gua sha and cupping are two different TCM physiotherapy methods, if it is not for **, but for health care, it can be done once every seven days.

For the body with cold and dampness, blood stasis, damp heat, meridian blockage and other diseases, the specific next scraping or cupping depends on the situation, because everyone's physique is different, if frequent scraping, cupping, the human body is damaged, improper treatment is prone to epidermal damage.

Cupping is prone to blisters after removing the jar, generally the next gua sha or cupping should be 5 to 7 days later, wait until the scars of the gua sha on the body and the marks of cupping have subsided, and then carry out the next gua sha or cupping.

Gua sha generally depends on whether the person is weak or has a strong liver fire. Don't shave your hands when you get out of shaping, don't take a shower 24 hours after scraping, don't pull out only one cupping, and pull out the bladder meridian.

It is best to pull this thing once a month, which can eliminate the toxins in the body in time, restore your body to a healthy state, and remove inflammation in time.

It is best to get it twice a month, you should not cupping for a long time, otherwise you will get yourself some minor ailments, go 2 or 3 times a month.

Personally, I think it's best to get this thing every two or three months, because it's not good for your body to do it too often.

Just do it once every two weeks. Because within two weeks, we can detoxify our body as soon as possible, and it can also remove moisture from our body.

It's better to get it 2 or 3 times a month. Don't do it too often, otherwise it will affect your health and cause problems with your spine.

Gua sha works best an hour after breakfast. Because the morning is the time when the body's qi and blood are generated, gua sha ** dredges the meridians, activates blood and dispels blood stasis, which is conducive to the smooth flow of qi and blood.

The afternoon or evening is the time when the qi and blood are closed, so gua sha is not recommended. Cupping gua sha is better during the day, but it is recommended not to have an empty stomach and not to do it immediately after a meal. After cupping, remember not to take a shower with water or blow wind for four hours.

1. Cupping is possible after scraping.

Cupping and gua sha can be done at the same time, gua sha is actually to disperse the superficial stasis, while cupping is to pull out the deep problems, which can cooperate with each other, if it is several meridians together, it can also be carried out at the same time.

2 gua sha and cupping although the method is different, but they are the same principle of the disease, traditional Chinese medicine believes that "if it is not passed, it is painful", both of which are to make the local dredging, and the pain is not answered, modern medicine believes that both are through external force, so that the local muscle fiber adhesion is improved, and the capillary blood circulation is unblocked, and the two are used together to complement each other.

3. It depends on the individual's physique and the size of the area of the area during scraping.

Generally, men in the prime of life do not need to go to cupping after the bladder on their backs has been fully scraped. If you just scrape the shoulder** frozen shoulder or cervical spondylosis, cupping or cupping on the back can be done. If you are a woman, it is best to do one part at a time.

4. Gua sha and cupping are used together with Youshi lead, generally first gua sha and then cupping, or first gua sha and then cupping, the former is more commonly used. Gua sha first, and then cupping, can enhance the power of dispelling evil spirits.

Scrape every three to five days. If used for health care, it can be scraped once a day.

As a suitable technique for traditional Chinese medicine, gua sha also has certain skills. The gua sha board can be made of buffalo horn or wooden fish stone, and the board surface is clean and the edges and corners are smooth. Zhenxi gua sha medium mostly uses liquid paraffin, sesame oil, safflower oil or scraping special blood activating agent.

When scraping, the wrist is required to apply even force, and the force of the scraping is adjusted according to the patient's condition and reaction. Generally, it can be gently scraped downward, or repeatedly scraped from the inside to the outside, and gradually increase the weight to the extent that the patient can tolerate. When scraping, it is necessary to scrape in the same direction, the strength should be even, and the wrist force should be used, generally scraping 10 to 20 times, about 20 minutes, and scraping once every three to five days.

If used for health care, it can be scraped once a day.
