Lower body obesity? Muscle detoxification massage to clear lymphatic

Even models who maintain a beautiful figure still suffer from lower body obesity. For women, the amount of fat accumulated in the lower body is about six times that of the upper body. This has a lot to do with female hormones. There are receptors on the surface of fat cells, which are like small rooms for storing fat. Due to the stimulation of female hormones, the door of this room will open and close to store and access fat.

There are two types of receptors, those that store fat and those that excrete fat. It is said that the storage receptors in the lower body are six times the excretion receptors. In other words, the lower body is more likely to accumulate fat and produce cellulite than the upper body. However, in the fat storage receptors, fat will not be stored if nutrients are not delivered. However, there are many thick blood vessels in the legs, and because these blood vessels transport a lot of nutrients, it is easy to gain weight.

Coupled with the influence of female hormones, a lot of nutrients are transported through thick blood vessels, so women's legs are more likely to become thicker than men's.

Therefore, when massaging, please remember to start from the feet. Please massage vigorously and let the nutrients delivered flow out as waste in the body.

Massage will allow the body to secrete growth hormones that are essential for anti-aging

Cells repair and regenerate at night while we sleep. This so-called golden time is from 10pm to 2am. Sleeping during this period and letting the body rest will allow growth hormone to be secreted smoothly and cell repair to proceed smoothly. Therefore, the remodeling (regeneration) cycle of the skin, muscles, and bones will be faster, allowing you to stay young forever.

The key to cell regeneration is "growth hormone".

When female hormones decrease, growth hormone is used to supplement them. Most of the time it is secreted during sleep, but growth hormone can also be secreted when muscles are stimulated.

So, does it mean that a large amount of growth hormone will be secreted as long as we do intense exercise? That’s not the case.

The key is to stimulate the muscles by doing slow movements that do not overload the muscles. For example, it is called "slow weight training", which is an exercise that uses a slow speed to slowly stimulate the muscles. It is said that this kind of exercise will easily secrete growth hormone.

The same goes for massage. Don't just stimulate a certain part of the muscle to create a huge load, which will allow the body to secrete growth hormone. Not only that, because unlike muscle training, you don't always stimulate the same muscles, so the muscles will not become bigger and harder. Massage can create feminine body curves while activating the secretion of growth hormones that are essential for anti-aging, making it a very suitable anti-aging method.

You can’t lose weight just by having a “comfortable massage”!

From a quick massage to a careful kneading massage with massage oil, there are all kinds of different types of massage in the world.

If you are getting a massage for the purpose of losing weight, or if you are doing a massage on your own, a comfortable massage will not help you lose weight.

The main purpose of a comfortable massage is to keep the lymph flowing smoothly. Because the function of lymph is to metabolize excess water or waste in the body, if the flow of lymph improves, swelling will temporarily disappear. However, the muscle constitution that is the root cause of the swelling remains unchanged, so swelling will occur again after a while.

Muscle detoxification massage can be painful because the quality of the muscles has changed. It may be painful and uncomfortable before you get used to it. To remove fat or body waste that is deep inside the muscles, you need to apply strong massage to reach deep into the muscles. When the initial "pain" turns into "comfort", the muscles will become soft, the cause of swelling will be eliminated, and the body will be transformed into one that is not prone to swelling.

A comfortable massage can only relieve stress.

If you want to lose weight through massage, you won't be able to change your body unless you do a massage that hurts.

The massage effect when taking a bath is several times that when the body is cold

In the salon, a "high frequency therapy device" is used before the massage. It's just like a human iron, warming the inside of the body, especially the muscles at the core. Warming up the body will improve blood circulation and relieve muscle tension.

During the day, the sympathetic nervous system in the autonomic nervous system is dominant and people can move actively. In contrast, from evening to night, the parasympathetic nervous system becomes dominant, which switches into relaxation mode in preparation for sleep. As long as the parasympathetic nervous system is dominant, the fascia and fat covering the muscles will be relaxed, so it is most suitable for muscle massage.

Therefore, in order to effectively loosen and soften the muscles, please warm up the body and massage during the period when the parasympathetic nervous system is dominant, such as while taking a bath or immediately after taking a bath.

Soak comfortably in warm water at 38 to 40 degrees for more than 20 minutes, and your body will warm up from the inside and slowly sweat. The muscles are in a relaxed state at this time. Even if you massage with the same force as usual, it won't hurt much because the muscles are relaxed. On the contrary, if you suddenly rub the parts that feel cold to the touch with force during massage, bruises or muscle pain may occur.

Taking a bath is the simplest and most effective method, but even if you don’t take a bath, please try to “warm your body before massage.” For example, rub your hands together, place your warm hands on the affected area, and then massage. Wet a towel with water, roll it into a circle, and heat it in a microwave for about thirty to sixty seconds to make it a hot towel. Stick it on your body and massage, or use a simple commercially available heat pack to warm your body first. There are various methods of warming. Regardless of the method, massaging after warming up the body will be several times more effective than massaging when the body is cold.
