What are the benefits of back massage

1. Various positions of back massage:

● When massaging the upper back, you can stimulate the Feishu point, which treats lung diseases; the Xinshu point, which treats heart diseases; the Dushu point, which can expand the chest and regulate qi; and the Geshu point, which can regulate blood, relax the middle and harmonize the stomach.

● When massaging the lower back, you can stimulate the liver point that treats liver diseases; the gallbladder point that treats gallbladder diseases; the spleen point that strengthens the spleen, harmonizes the stomach, and eliminates dampness, etc.

● Massaging the acupuncture points stimulated by the left and right shoulder blades has a certain therapeutic effect on the treatment of head and facial diseases, cervical spondylosis, and frozen shoulder.

● Massaging the sides of the back can also help expand the chest, regulate qi, and treat intercostal pain. You can also try to straighten your chest, push your shoulder blades back, and massage the Dazhui, Fengmen and other acupoints on the neck and shoulders to treat cervical spondylosis and neck-shoulder syndrome.

● Massaging various acupuncture points on the back can dredge the meridians, promote qi and blood circulation, and can reflexively regulate visceral activities and enhance the functions of internal organs. As long as you persist in back massage, you will receive obvious effects in treating diseases and maintaining health.

2. Long-term back massage can also help you lose weight and improve your health and longevity. Back massage can invigorate blood circulation and relieve back fatigue. While massaging the back, you can also massage the neck. I recommend using the Na method of massage, because patients with back pain usually also have some diseases in the neck, and the basic acupoints can be pressed using the Na method of massage. At the same time, back massage can also relieve some of the patient's waist pain. Many meridians pass through the back. When massaging the back, these meridians can be massaged, which helps to relax the whole body. This is very practical for those with leg pain. Of course, some pain may not be related to these meridians, but for example, hemiplegia involves leg diseases, so massaging the back has a good effect on relieving these symptoms.
