The difference between fumigation and sweat steaming

I believe that we often hear about sauna, sweat steaming and fumigation in daily life. Nowadays, the life and work pressure of modern people is getting higher and higher. Many people's bodies can no longer bear it. Some people will choose sweat steaming or fumigation to relax their bodies. Sweat steaming and fumigation also have the effects of detoxification and beautification. Steaming and fumigation are actually not the same thing, so what is the difference between steaming and fumigation?

1. The difference between sweat steaming and fumigation

Sweat steaming utilizes the infrared reflection principle of tourmaline and jade to release negative ions and sub-ions. Through high temperature such as steam, people sweat and metabolize harmful substances in the skin, thus achieving the effect of promoting blood circulation and metabolism. Compared with sauna, the temperature of steam room is about 35-40 degrees, and people need to stay in it for about 50 minutes to 1 hour so that the body can absorb beneficial elements and eliminate toxins.

Fumigation is done by fumigating a certain part of the body so that the pores of the skin are stimulated to absorb Chinese medicine, thereby causing overall pharmacological effects and regulating effects on the whole body. The temperature of steaming is usually below 60 degrees, which is a suitable temperature to prevent skin burns.

2. Precautions for sweat steaming

1. Women should not sweat steam during their menstrual period

Steaming after menstruation can also relieve dysmenorrhea, but never steam during menstruation. Because sweat steaming will speed up the blood circulation in your body, if you sweat steam at this time it will speed up your blood, which will increase your menstrual volume and cause severe menstrual bleeding. In addition, women's immunity is reduced during menstruation, and they are easily prone to catching cold after sweating.

2. Do not steam on an empty stomach or immediately after a meal

Do not sweat steam on an empty stomach or right after a meal. It is best to do it half an hour after a meal. Because sweat steaming consumes a lot of energy,

It is easy to faint on an empty stomach, and it is not advisable to sweat and steam immediately after eating, otherwise it will increase the burden on gastrointestinal digestion.
