Side effects of too much massage

Massage is actually a way to help yourself relieve physical pain and various mental stresses, but if the massage is performed too often, it may have some adverse effects on our body. Therefore, when choosing massage, you must not easily ignore these problems. Let us now understand the possible side effects of too many massages.

Although massage can bring you health benefits, if you do not follow the appropriate principles or choose a more correct massage method, it may threaten your health, so I hope everyone can pay attention to these issues when doing massage.

1. Syncope

Fainting during massage may mainly be caused by the patient being too nervous, weak, tired or hungry, or by the massage being too heavy or lasting too long. Once the patient faints, the massage should be stopped immediately. Let the patient lie flat in a well-ventilated place with the head kept low. After rest, the patient will generally recover naturally. If the patient is severely fainted, you can use methods such as pinching the Ren Zhong point, holding the Jianjing point, Hegu point, and pressing the Yongquan point to revive him/her, and you can also use acupuncture and other methods to cooperate. If the syncope is caused by hypoglycemia, the patient can be given some sugar water to drink.

2. Broken skin

When using the rubbing method, improper operation may sometimes cause the patient's skin to be damaged. At this time, some surgical treatment should be performed, and operations on the damaged area should be avoided to prevent infection. When not using the rubbing method, do not rub hard.

3. Subcutaneous hemorrhage

Massage generally does not cause subcutaneous bleeding. If the patient's local skin appears cyanotic, it may be because the massage technique is too heavy or the patient has a disease that is prone to bleeding. If subcutaneous bleeding occurs, massage should be stopped immediately. The bleeding will usually stop on its own. After 2-3 days, local massage can be performed or wet compresses can be used to gradually eliminate the bleeding.

The above is an introduction to some of the possible side effects of massage. I believe that after reading these introductions, everyone should have a more comprehensive understanding of this issue. If you hope to use massage to help yourself solve some physical problems, then you must abide by these principles. Only in this way can you better ensure your health.
