According to the meridian theory of traditional Chinese medicine, meridians are channels for the circulation of qi and blood in the human body, which can communicate the inside and outside, and connect the internal organs and limbs. When the meridians are blocked and blocked, the human body will experience pain, which is what traditional Chinese medicine calls "pain due to blockage". Massage treatment adopts a series of methods through meridian syndrome differentiation.
For example:
Relax the muscles and unblock the meridians: relax the tense muscles (looseness leads to unblockage);
Restore the muscles and restore the tendons: restore the joints and ligaments to their original positions (smoothness leads to unblockage);
Activate blood circulation and remove blood stasis: make the stagnant blood move (movement leads to unblockage).
Therefore, traditional Chinese medicine massage belongs to the external treatment method of traditional Chinese medicine, and it is undoubtedly effective in treating diseases.
