按摩方法大不同
一次舒適到位的按摩，可讓人消除疲勞、紓緩肌肉繃緊帶來的不適，甚至紓解情緒壓力。然而按摩手法繁多，推拿、推油、指壓、泰式按摩、腳底按摩等等，你知道它們的分別嗎？
💆🏻 中醫推拿按摩
以治療為目標的按摩，中醫師先了解患者體質及病況，會按經絡循行及穴位，以推拿、按摩以至針灸方式作治療，有助紓緩痛症。
💆🏻 推油
加入香薰精油進行按摩，讓精油滲入皮膚之中，按摩時充斥着香薰味道。推油按摩必需脫去衣物進行，由於全身抹有精油，皮膚會較為滋潤。
💆🏻 指壓
按摩師利用手指對全身經絡、穴道進行按壓，亦會針對痠痛位置進行按、揉、撥等動作，紓緩肌肉緊繃。指壓會隔着衣服進行，通常不使用工具。
💆🏻 泰式按摩
從古印度傳入泰國的按摩手法，以活動關節為主，較為大動作，類似被動式瑜珈，按摩時穿著較柔軟衣服。
🦶🏻 腳底按摩
人體五臟六腑在腳底都有相應的反射區，按摩腳底有助血氣循環，暢通血脈，有助紓緩相對應臟腑的症狀。
除了由註冊中醫師主理的推拿按摩，其餘按摩方式均為保健方法，有助減壓，促進氣血運行，強化筋骨肌肉，但未必是最適合的治療方法，如患有持續筋骨肌肉痛症，「揼骨」後症狀未有改善，宜向註冊中醫師或專業人士求診治理。

Different types of massages
A good massage can relieve fatigue, stress, and the tension in our muscles. There are so many types of massage services available in the market. Do you know the differences?
💆🏻 Traditional Chinese massage (‘tui na’)
Mainly for treatment purposes. After understanding the patients’ body constitution and health condition, Chinese medicine practitioners will then identify and massage the Meridian and acupoints on the body. They might also use acupuncture to relieve pain.
💆🏻 Oil massage
Massage using essential oils. The essential oils, which will give out fragrance, will then seep into the skin. During the session, clients will have to remove their clothes. The essential oils applied on the body will also moisten the skin.
💆🏻 The Shiatsu massage (‘zhi ya’)
Shiatsu massage therapists will massage the Meridian and acupoints of the body using their fingers. They will also press and rub to relieve muscle soreness on specific body parts. During the session, clients are fully clothed. Generally, the massage therapists do not need additional equipment to complete the session.
💆🏻 Thai massage
Inherited from ancient India, the techniques focus on the joints. Thai massage involves yoga-like big moves. During the session, clients have to put on a set of thin and soft clothes.
🦶🏻 Reflexology (foot massage)
There are reflective zones on our foot soles that represent our internal organs. A foot massage can aid the circulation of blood and qi and relieve symptoms when the functions of the internal organs are disrupted.
Besides the treatment-based traditional Chinese massage, the other massages focus more on relieving stress, improving the circulation of qi and blood, and strengthening the muscles and tendons. They might not be the best options for those with more severe medical conditions. Patients who experience continuous musculoskeletal disorders should consult registered and licensed Chinese medicine practitioner or medical experts.
