As a gua sha enthusiasts still have something to say, gua sha has many benefits, but gua sha is not just how you want to scrape how to scrape, especially some people's physique is not suitable for gua sha, must go to the regular hospital to let the doctor diagnosis and treatment and then scrape, especially like Ajiao sunshine out of the picture, the whole back of a large area of gua sha of this kind, or to be cautious, she this big picture I dare not point in to see.

Whether it works or not may depend on how Ajiao herself feels.

If she had back pain from a cold back, it might work somewhat. But that kind of back pain isn't nearly as painful as scraping, and it goes away even if you don't scrape. In all likelihood, scraping causes a thrill that makes it hard for her to stop. Eventually, this will lead her to develop a so-called health habit. Subconsciously, people will always believe that since they have paid such a big price and scraped their backs so painfully that they even have blood marks, there should always be a reward.

Not every celebrity is keen on shaving, but celebrity shaving like Ajiao does get more spread and attention. Every move a celebrity makes is scrutinized. There is a little bit of privacy in gua sha, which makes it even more talked about. People always love to pay attention to the privacy of celebrities and also their lifestyle.

When the Soviet musician Shostakovich visited the United States, an American woman came to see him. He thought she would talk to him about music, but she said with great emotion: "You look like my nephew". This woman thought of Shostakovich as a "star" rather than a musician. Similarly, Ajiao is an actress by profession, but many people think of her as a star and focus on things other than her work.

Chinese celebrities like all kinds of health regimens. Some years ago, many celebrities sought after Chongqing's Taoist priest Li Yi and Pai Gu. Pai Gu is a kind of health care, starving, emptying the stomach and intestines, exhaling the old and breathing the fresh air of the mountains. Finally, the media exposed Li Yi as a big liar. Master Wang Lin is the same, many celebrities have gone to support him, the fundamental reason is also a kind of obsession with health care. Ajiao likes to scrape, is also a kind of health care hobby, right?

Many of the so-called health regimens have been proven to be unreliable, and it looks like celebrities have questionable IQs. Indeed, they gained fame and money too early. Many Chinese celebrities do not have a basic education in science and are easily captured by various health gurus. They have money and publicity, both of which make them easy prey for scammers.

Happy to answer your questions.

First of all, thanks for the invitation.

Whether gua sha is useful or not, this is doubtful in the medical profession, just like whether genetically modified food is harmful to the body and so on, I don't know if there is any harm, I don't know if there is any efficacy.

However, my personal experience is that when I am physically very tired, after going to cupping and gua sha, my spirit will be a little bit better, and it has a similar effect of activating blood circulation and removing blood stasis. Of course, this may also be their own psychological implication, who knows?

From Chinese medicine, gua sha is to clear the body of qi and blood stagnation, blockage, gua sha can detoxification.

From modern medicine, gua sha is the back squeeze after causing the subcutaneous mucous membrane capillary rupture, bruising, basically only side effects a bunch of.

For us, the body is very often only one, and after encountering some irreversible influences, it is a call to arms. Therefore, we cannot blindly resist or blindly believe in the unknown. My personal advice is that you can occasionally go to a good massage parlor to do massage, but can not take this as a cure, in the process, we still need to believe in modern science, can not diagnose and treat themselves, not Baidu what to scare themselves, once there is a problem to go to the hospital to see any disease is more early when there will be a better cure. This is true for acute illnesses, as well as chronic illnesses.

Final Recommendation:

More medical checkups, 2-4 times a year, that is to say, in addition to the unit's free medical checkups, it is best to pay for a more than 1,000 yuan, especially blood tests should be done, and then the results come back to the post, year by year comparison, to have a better control of their own physical condition Oh.

If my answer is helpful, I hope you can give me a like! It won't take much traffic da! Trust me! Hey, hey, hey!

Ajiao's back is bruised. This is the nature of Gua Sha, the squeezing of the back and neck causes the capillaries of the subcutaneous mucosa to rupture, forming bruises. There is no valid evidence that Gua Sha is beneficial to the body. This is similar to traditional western bloodletting therapy.

Prior to modern medicine, the traditional West had a fervent fascination with bloodletting. The treatment of malaria, for example, continued to be practiced in combination with bloodletting in Europe for hundreds of years after the efficacy of the bark of the cinchona tree (which contains quinine) was discovered. We now know that bloodletting is ineffective, in addition to having many side effects.

The central question is how do we distinguish whether a therapy or medicine is effective or ineffective, or whether its toxic side effects outweigh its mild efficacy? As an example, the tradition of Chinese medicine is that a whole bunch of medicines are mixed together and boiled down, as was done in the age of ignorance. The Sumerians and Egyptians used salt, oil, mud, animal fat or meat, honey, and leaves mixed together a long time ago, and applied them to wounds to heal them. China also has a tradition of healing wounds with mud, as the main character's family does in Yu Hua's Alive. But there's no argument that mud doesn't help wounds heal, it just makes them more susceptible to bacterial infections.

Perhaps wounds coated with mud also heal, only slower and with larger scars than without mud. But one does not recognize this without making a controlled comparison. Traditional experience and the judgment of so-called famous doctors are often unreliable.

The same goes for gua sha and bloodletting therapy. That is why double-blind clinical trials are needed to verify their efficacy, rather than reverence for antiquity - based on some classic or famous doctor's treatise from ancient times.

Many people who advocate scraping for a cure will back it up with a bunch of so-called papers. But frankly, none of these papers are up to snuff. Such as this one:

The trial numbers were too small and there was no placebo control group. Both groups were herbalists. By the standards of this trial, it is possible to conclude that both mud and meat fat are good for wound healing, when in fact both are bad for wounds.

Scraping is risky, so here's a final word of caution:

Sichuan Online News (Sichuan Online reporter Chen Mingyue) early forties Zhou Moumou to "qigong health care" store massage Gua Sha, but never got out of the store door. After identification, Zhou Moumou is in the scraping process of aortic dissection rupture, resulting in cardiac tamponade death. Zhoumoumou family sued to the Chengdu City, Sichuan Province, Wuhou District Court, today the court ruled that gua sha store compensation costs 55,610 yuan.

-Like please click the upper right corner of the attention, what are you waiting for ah!

Ajiao scraping, the treatment is not only physical exorcism and detoxification, but also psychological exorcism and detoxification oh!

Gua Sha is the motherland of Chinese medicine theory support an extracorporeal therapy, Chinese meridian theory is not recognized abroad, but it does cure, especially middle-aged and older people and women are keen on this especially.

Chinese medicine is profound, the Chinese meridian theory can not be explained by science for the time being, but its experiments are useful, for example, acupoints, foreigners also do not recognize, but acupuncture are on top of the acupoints.

The theory of Gua Sha is also guided by the meridian theory of Chinese medicine.

Through some special tools, such as cow horn, jade, etc., dipped in lubricating oil for repeated scraping, after many times of friction, so that the surface of the skin appeared red small particles, in fact, is the bleeding point, Chinese medicine said Gua Sha, if there is cervical spondylosis, frozen shoulder, arthritis, etc., under normal circumstances, it will be more than the other people's bleeding point, Chinese medicine said that the not through the pain, after the Gua Sha treatment, in general, to play a tendon relief line blood, blood circulation, blood stasis, drive away evil spirits detoxification effect.

The most modern claim is that there is also a beauty effect, which I do not quite recognize, but the indirect effect may be there. But the pain of Gua Sha is also obvious, then it is more painful, especially after two days of Gua Sha, wearing clothes are painful.

But the effect is also good, especially cervical spondylosis, after scraping the calm and tranquility, clear eyes, headache, basically free movement, for the modern cell phone family, that effect is self-evident.

But scraping more women than men, this has to do with psychology, but also related to beauty, girls scraping more in the beauty salon, because of this scraping technique is simple, so the general beautician will scrape, Ajiao's scraping think it must be the same situation before scraping, from the photo, her body's cold is quite heavy, the need to clear the heat and detoxification, to dispel the evil spirits and turbidity.

Ajiao since the incident of racy photos, public appearances and not much time, but such a jade girl, in fact, there is no need to be immersed in the past, which a young man and a young woman in the emotional intensity, did not do some things that can not be on the stage, hate only hate the encounter with the wrong person, just. However, beauty and gua sha, sometimes moisturize the skin and skin, clearing heat and detoxification, calm and tranquilize the mind, especially to cool the blood to calm the shock, dispel evil spirits and turbidity.

When the damp and cloudy air in your heart is out, take a big step forward!

Scraping Gua Sha and fire cupping is a very important way of physical therapy in traditional Chinese medicine to regulate the body, even if the medicine is now quite developed, these traditional medical technology, not only not outdated by everyone forget to dislike, but more popular than the original, may be these profound is the traditional Chinese medicine or have its unique characteristics, there will be so many people are keen to try. Not only ordinary people like scraping and cupping, those who seem to love beauty, medical conditions are very good stars, but also like, so we often see the star back neck wearing a fire pot marks and scraping marks. Recently, Ajiao even showed the photos of her back after scraping, and it really looks bloody, which is very different from the usual fragrant shoulders and jade back that we all see her.

So does Gua Sha, which celebrities are also keen on, really work? The answer is yes.

On the one hand, celebrities have money and love beauty, and have very good medical conditions, so they must be choosing the best way, so it is inferred that scraping must be useful to them, otherwise their health advisors would not dare to blindly fool them, and they would not just try it.

On the other hand, according to personal experience, sometimes the body does not have obvious uncomfortable symptoms, but also feel uncomfortable, tired and exhausted, etc., after the massage gua sha cupping fire cupping, it will be very relaxed, can be relieved to a certain extent. Sometimes cold, soreness, but also using gua sha physical therapy, the effect is also good. It is estimated that the star is also such an experience.

But Ajiao this scraping area and degree, really let a person a little surprised, never seen scraping so much so deep, and Ajiao actually sunshine such a photo, I do not know if her doctor boyfriend is not, is not considered to be a disguised show of love it?

Ajiao was in so much pain that she broke down and sunbathed her bare back, does the masochistic experience really work? To be honest, Ajiao sent out pictures of her back so bloody and miserable that it really scared a lot of fans.

The so-called Gua Sha refers to the spoon, jade, metal, cow horn and other made of Gua Sha board dipped in oil, in the person's back, head, face, etc. repeatedly scrape, so that the local skin congestion

In fact, stars scraping Gua Sha has not been a common rare thing. The United States on the scraping place also many years, but from the point of view of modern medicine, there is no evidence to indicate that scraping for disease has a preventive, therapeutic effect.

The launch of the movie "Operation Red Sea" on the actors revealed that sometimes Haiqing will help everyone scrape and pull fire cupping to relieve physical injuries.

Nowadays, people live in a busy state of affairs, are sub-healthy, scraping cupping can be carried out links, but scraping the skin after the red color left behind, just scraping plate scraping a large number of capillaries within the skin, resulting in mechanical subcutaneous appearances.

Most of the people may be again in the eyes of the scraping are in the beauty parlor massage store, in everyone's opinion, so seemingly simple health care work, and do not need to go to the hospital such as the rise of the public. But scraping parts, time and length, using the force and even tools, are closely related to the physical condition of the recipient of the scraping. I hope you note that this is not anyone can just figure out through in your body can just scrape a few times

Recently, a blog post by Ajiao caused another uproar on the Internet, "May I ask if this is a human back? It's so exaggerated, the whole piece of skin seems to have been torn off."

Turns out Ajiao went to shave.

So the topic of whether gua sha is scientific or not caused another discussion on the Internet.

The people who think that gua sha is not scientific think: gua sha is to scrape the capillaries under the skin, caused by subcutaneous bleeding, so gua sha on the cure is not useful at all, if you scrape more may also cause renal failure.

The people who think that the science of gua sha think: gua sha to Chinese medicine theory to do as a guide, scraping parts of the meridians, acupuncture points, pain points, etc., not just capillary bleeding, its significance lies in the dredging of the meridians, to play a role in blood circulation and bruising.

But science or not, it must be unscientific to shave your entire back like Ajiao did.

Here's a brief look at my personal views on scraping:

The human body is a very precise, interrelated system, scraping the principle of Gua Sha if only to capillary rupture to explain , that understanding is too shallow.

For example, a patient with stomach pain can stop the pain by scraping at specific acupoints such as the mid-epiglottis and the foot-sanli, indicating that there is some kind of correlation between the organs in the body and the meridian acupoints on the surface of the body;

In falling pillow, frozen shoulder and other diseases, the pain is due to the affected area adhesion, microcirculation obstacles, inflammatory factor aggregation, etc. By scraping the Gua Sha in the affected area, the adhesion is loosened, the microcirculation is improved, the inflammatory factor is released, so the pain is relieved.

Another significance of gua sha is that it scratches the aged, fragile, and poorly resilient red blood cells, while the healthy, mature, and resilient red blood cells can safely "slip" under the gua sha board. This is why some parts of the body will scrape out the Gua Sha, and some places scraped only red, and no so-called Gua Sha points.

I am Dr. Chen Mengxue from the Department of Dermatology, Fuzhou Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, if you have any suggestions or comments on my answer, you can leave a message below the article or private message me, thank you!

On the Chinese medicine point of view analysis, Gua Sha on the body fatigue and so on can play a role in relieving this is undoubtedly a fact. But on the fact that, gua sha in the theory of the lack of theory and evidence.

In all sincerity, Chinese medicine is a profound and profound science, a verification science. This is similar to science, which is also a verification science. But on the other hand, Chinese medicine is influenced by witchcraft in the process of development, and since ancient times, witchcraft and medicine have the same origin, which also brings a certain superstitious color to the development of Chinese medicine.

For example, the ancient Zhuyu 13 arts, its healing methods, more common people are difficult to understand, it is difficult to be included in the level of traditional Chinese medicine, more spells of the category.

In contrast, gua sha and fire cupping are both bloodletting therapies that mediate the body's return to health in Chinese medicine, which is simple, quick and easy to administer. But in the West there is no lack of criticism, and even confuse it with abuse.

For example, in "Gua Sha", directed by Zheng Xiaolong and starring Tony Leung Ka Fai, Zhu Xu uses Chinese-style Gua Sha therapy to treat his grandson, Dennis, because he can't read the English instructions on the medication, which becomes evidence of his grandson's abuse. And with witnesses and testimonies coming out of the courtroom, his son, Datong Xu, is left with no defense. And what about Western medical theories? And really can not explain the Chinese medicine of the mouth and ear transmission and other issues.

This situation is very much like the Buddhist culture in the apparent and secret sects, a universal transmission of more scientific experiments and other basis, a focus on the oral transmission of the secret.

The question is, does scraping work? The answer is: yes. At least can cure 31 kinds of common diseases, from wake up the spirit to save the syncope, detoxification and drive away evil spirits, strengthen the spleen and stomach, clearing away heat and relieve the table to the elderly common high incidence of diabetes, hypertension, coronary heart disease, from the child's diarrhea, coughing, urination to the salaried people's mental high pressure, neurasthenia, physiological disorders, and so on and so on.

As for Ajiao's back scraping a blood red, we can understand this as its and the doctor boyfriend disguised as a big show of love, to prove their own relationship world is very happy. As for the abuse and scraping and other Chinese medicine to explore such topics, is just a multitude of topics of the extension of the lead only.

In the current era of national health, if you say you have not scraped Gua Sha, a lot of health professionals will not be able to hold back, and will certainly use all sorts of ways to highly recommend that you go to experience one. Scraping, in fact, from the traditional Chinese medicine meridian acupuncture point theory, that through the special scraping Gua Sha repeatedly scraping, friction human body corresponding meridian, acupuncture points, etc., can be in the body of the silt of the evil cold and dampness of the gas are dispersed, so as to achieve the regulation of gas and blood, Shu tendon and collaterals, drive away the evil and dampness and so on role.

After scraping Gua Sha will generally appear "Gua Sha" phenomenon. Chinese medicine believes that this is the body of the accumulation of silt and evil poison out of the body performance.And in clinical principle, Gua Sha is actually because after the cuts and scrapes lead to skin capillary rupture, bruises appear in the skin reddish purple Gua Sha marksThis is to utilize the blood that would otherwise not be able to leave the body. This is to take advantage of the fact that bruised blood that would otherwise not be able to leave the body is able to re-enter the blood circulation after the cuts have left the blood vessel walls and is best eliminated from the body.

Therefore, both in the field of Chinese medicine or Western medicine are recognized that often scraping Gua Sha does have a great effect on the health of the body. Not only can promote blood circulation, dredge the internal organs, on some of the accumulation of disease such as heat and dampness caused by heat stroke, blood does not lead to headache, pigment toxin accumulation of silt produced by the disease has a very good therapeutic effect; and Gua Sha is often prone to sweating, but also because of open pores, conducive to the detoxification of the body, you can effectively alleviate colds and other illnesses; in addition, some people with long-term fatigue or some parts of the blockage of the stiffness of the cervical vertebrae disease, etc., can also significantly reduce fatigue, relieve soreness and pain. Cervical spondylosis, etc., after scraping Gua Sha can also significantly reduce fatigue, relieve pain.

Although there are many benefits of gua sha, but in the actual implementation of the process also appeared a lot of problems, if you do not pay attention to, may instead damage health.

Five things to keep in mind when scraping:

I. The method of scraping

1, scraping direction

Because gua sha is to Chinese medicine meridian points theory as know, so in the direction of gua sha can not be haphazard cuts, otherwise not only did not achieve the role of blood, but also easy to lead to the reverse flow of blood. The direction is mainly in accordance with the top to bottom, from inside to outside, first head and neck after the back of the abdomen, the last limbs and joints of the principle of scraping along the meridian direction, the location of the joints points is best to take the kneading and so on, do not force too heavy. However, some parts of the scraping direction will be slightly different, specific should also carefully understand.

2, scraping tools

Generally speaking, gua sha should choose the special quality of the scraping board, but if not can also choose the edge of the smooth without gap spoons, coins, etc., or directly bend the finger, with the back of the finger as a scraping board is also not impossible.

3, scraping preparation

Scraping before to choose in a ventilated, clean place to carry out, do not in a closed shady and wet environment, or instead aggravate the discomfort; and, scraping before scraping in the scraping area first apply a layer of essential oils, creams, etc. helps to lubricate the skin, to avoid cuts when the friction is too large leading to skin breakage.

II. Degree of gua sha

Although the scraping will generally be accompanied by the "Gua Sha", but can not take the Gua Sha as the ultimate goal of scraping. Some people excessive pursuit of gua sha, as if the more gua sha, the deeper the color, the efficacy of gua sha is the greater, so will require all the brute force to scrape the way, and finally instead of skin damage and lead to redness and bleeding.

In fact.The fundamental purpose of gua sha is to unblock the meridians, the speed and amount of gua sha and different people's physique related to the. Some people just start not long will be out of Gua Sha, while some people even if hard to scrape a long time is only skin reddish. Therefore, when scraping Gua Sha do not pursue too much force, do not take Gua Sha for the purpose, the general skin appears reddish when it has achieved the role of scraping Gua Sha.

Third, the effect of scraping

Although there are many benefits of Gua Sha, can effectively relieve some discomfort. But need to know is that, after all, gua sha is only a health care means, for some such as dizziness, muscle soreness and other minor problems or some of the early symptoms of the disease has a certain role in alleviating, but can not rely on gua sha to cure a hundred illnesses, if the body continues to appear some discomfort, or to go to the hospital to diagnose and treat the condition, in order to avoid delaying the condition.

Fourth, the precautions of scraping

Scraping process, be scraped once any discomfort, should immediately stop scraping, rest and replenish water after not yet recovered should rush to the hospital to check the cause; scraping finished, to first skin sweat, lubricants, etc. dry, and then pay attention to dress, avoid wind, otherwise due to scraping pores open easily cold cold; scraping after the end of the scraping, pay attention to replenish water, a small amount of times to drink lukewarm water to promote the detoxification; scraping the day of the best Don't take a bath, so as not to cold dampness into the body.

Five, scraping taboo

Although gua sha is good, it is not for everyone, because gua sha can stimulate blood vessels and nerves, theSome disease patients or weak people should be prohibited from scraping Gua Shato prevent it from leading to more serious consequences.

1. People with weak constitution and insufficient qi and blood

2. People with skin allergies, skin breakouts and other related skin conditions

3. Patients with cardiovascular disease, leukemia, heart disease and other chronic diseases

4. Pregnant women and women during menstruation
