On a sunny weekend, the cherries were red.
No, Li Xiaobo's old friend Luo Jun, carrying a large basket of fresh cherries that had just been picked from his hometown, pushed open his door with a smile.
"Thank you, Luo Jun, this cherry looks so tempting. Li Xiaobo said as he took the cherry, and the gratitude in his heart was overflowing.
"No thanks, by the way, I heard that you have been going to massage a lot lately, how do you feel?" Luo Jun asked with concern.
Li Xiaobo smiled slightly, "Speaking of which, after the massage two days ago, I was really a little uncomfortable. ”
At this time, their conversation gradually turned to health issues. Luo Jun's parents have also recently begun to pay attention to various health care methods, which are quite researchable.
While chatting, Luo Jun suddenly mentioned a doctor's advice: "When people do certain health care activities, especially massage, they really have to pay attention to the ways and methods, and I have heard many cases of discomfort caused by this." ”
Li Xiaobo, a professional software development engineer, often feels pain in his cervical spine and shoulders when he sits in front of a computer for long periods of time.
In order to alleviate this condition, he began to do massage regularly.
However, Tuina is not a foolproof healthy activity, and there are some potential risks, especially for middle-aged people like Li Xiaobo.
The five major contraindications of massage include: first, people with severe heart disease and high blood pressure should avoid intense massage manipulation, because too strenuous physical activity may induce cardiovascular events;
Secondly, patients with osteoporosis should not receive massage, so as not to cause fractures;
Thirdly, the diet should be light after massage, and it is not advisable to eat greasy or cold food immediately;
Fourthly, if you feel unwell during the massage process, you should stop immediately;
Finally, it is not advisable to take massage after drinking, as alcohol may increase the speed of blood circulation and cause the effect of massage to be abnormal.
Li Xiaobo once felt a sharp chest tightness and shortness of breath after the massage, which made him very scared.
He consulted a doctor afterwards, who told him that it might be due to the fact that the master used too drastic techniques during the massage, which stimulated the chest muscles and bones, causing temporary poor blood circulation.
Li Xiaobo began to realize that even seemingly safe forms of health care have risks that cannot be ignored.
Once, the doctor told him about a case of an elderly lady who suffered from severe indigestion and gastrointestinal cramps after receiving abdominal massage, due to the therapist's neglect and improper operation of a specific condition.
This example deeply touched Li Xiaobo, and he began to re-evaluate his health management style.
Li Xiaobo realized that as a programmer, he lacked enough exercise, which was the main reason for his physical decline.
He began to consider adding physical activity to his daily routine, such as walking, swimming, or simple home fitness, as a way to improve his physique, rather than relying solely on Tuina as a single form of wellness.
The question at the end is: In the process of pursuing health, how can we balance scientific treatment with the improvement of lifestyle habits to achieve real health rather than one-sided treatment results?
In this regard, we can deeply analyze the common health management misunderstandings in the current society, such as the one-sided pursuit of health products or methods with rapid efficacy, while ignoring the long-term adjustment of lifestyle habits.
Scientific health management should include the improvement of lifestyle habits such as reasonable diet, moderate exercise, adequate sleep and moderate relaxation, which are all important factors in maintaining physical and mental health.
By combining these factors, we can truly achieve a healthy lifestyle that does not rely solely on a certain treatment or health care measures such as massage.
This comprehensive health management concept is what we should promote and practice in modern society.
