Does scraping hurt?

Many people have practiced scraping. It is now a very common treatment method and many people have heard of it in traditional Chinese medicine. Of course, some people don’t know much about scraping, because scraping is not accepted by everyone. It is only for most people that scraping is a relatively effective treatment method. Some people who have never tried scraping but want to do it may worry about one question: Does scraping hurt?

It is normal to feel a certain amount of pain when scraping. If it is very painful, you should consider several possibilities. The first is that there is a problem with the scraping master's technique. Generally, the strength at the beginning and end of scraping is the same, but some scraping masters use uneven strength, which will cause pain at the starting point. The second is that the nodular lesions of the body are obvious, so the pain in the nodule area will be obvious. In fact, scraping can be basically painless. The technique is soothing, and the strength is moderate. The therapeutic effect is also very good, and the patient feels less pain. Don't worry about the pain of scraping, generally no harm will occur. Gua Sha is very painful, but it is bearable. Gua Sha is mainly used to make the whole body's Qi and blood flow smoothly. Generally, it is effective if you have heatstroke or other conditions. Pay attention to rest more, drink more water, and eat more vegetables and fruits.

Many people think that the highest level of scraping must be to feel unbearable pain and scrape "terribly". In fact, this is a wrong view. The more painful scraping is, the more effective it is, nor is it better if the area is scraped black and purple. In fact, you can stop scraping when the sha appears on the area that you are scraping and turns slightly red or purple. If the scraping area and strength are not properly controlled, and one only pursues the color of the scraping, it will not only be ineffective, but may also cause skin and flesh damage.

In fact, many people want to know the question of whether scraping hurts. After all, scraping will leave marks on people's bodies, and some people think that scraping is very painful. Gua Sha will definitely cause a certain degree of pain, but everyone's tolerance is different. Therefore, the feeling of scraping is different for everyone.
