How effective these projects? Service is safe, and whether the science? With these questions, this reporter conducted the investigation.
Press the meridian to beauty?
Chinese medicine, meridians are running blood, organs and body surface contact and the whole body of the channel, blood is the material basis of human life activities, Meridian cloth will lose nutrients to the body organs of the organizations, so the meridians through various means Press, stimulation, can clear the meridians, promoting blood circulation beauty, and can promote skin metabolism, and expel toxins.
Experts advise consumers, as each person's physical condition is not the same, so Meridian beauty should follow the principles of diagnosis and treatment. In addition, because beauty is not a professional Chinese medical institutions, beauty technicians have not received most of rigorous, systematic study and knowledge of the meridian, so consumers should carefully select the meridian beauty, and other items, do not blindly believe the beauty of advertising.
The effectiveness of acupuncture to lose weight?
Acupuncture, acupuncture weight loss is through the traditional method of acupuncture to stimulate the body related to acupuncture points, to adjust the body's endocrine function, and ultimately achieve weight loss results; or by massaging specific points, adjusting the specific area of the meridian, thus regulating the internal organs and endocrine system function and so to achieve weight loss goals.
Experts point out that acupuncture, acupuncture weight loss has the advantage of no pain, no side effects, but the beauty of this project to carry out health conditions, doctors have strict qualification requirements. Many beauty salons to carry out acupuncture to lose weight does not have "medical institution", not many practitioners of acupuncture Normal eligibility for sterilization of acupuncture needles is also worrying. Acupuncture weight loss is not a simple beauty of life, strictly speaking, belong to a traumatic or invasive medical cosmetic category, consumers should choose a qualified physician practice operations.
In addition, experts advise consumers not to the magic of acupuncture weight loss must also be controlled with diet and regular exercise, relying solely on acupuncture and can not achieve the desired effect. Experts said that obesity is generally divided into pathological and physiological obesity obesity are two kinds of morbidly obese patients treated with acupuncture to improve symptoms through the physiological effects of obesity are not.
Breast, ovarian maintenance to promote micro-circulation?
Breast beauty maintenance carried out, usually to the chest oil painting, with massage, conditioning the microcirculation around the breast. Experts said that the breast can be to some extent, maintenance and improvement of breast disease prevention, such as mitigation of breast or menstrual breast pain, breast hyperplasia.
As for the ovary, kidney and maintenance projects, customers are mostly in the lower abdomen and lower back on the use of massage techniques, with essential oils to stimulate acupuncture points, so that essential oils through the skin surface. But experts pointed out that through manual massage, and beauty salons is not as publicized as the "activation of the pituitary gland into the body and the ovaries through the pituitary secretion of estrogen and progesterone," or to "adjust the balance of yin and yang within and outside the human body, so as to achieve Yang Shen Qiangshen effect. "
"From birth, the ovary to enter an irreversible process of aging." Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital, Beijing Union Medical College, said Professor Zhu Lan, and the ovaries deep in the pelvis, in front of the bladder, rectum and kidney after, the basic massage techniques with the general not touch. In addition, ovarian secretion of hormones by the hypothalamus - pituitary - ovarian function to occur, and only three in unison in order to release sufficient quantities of estrogen, not the "ovarian maintenance" can be resolved.
Experts also advise consumers of essential oils used in beauty salons uneven quality, and most of the essential oils soothe nerves only have a certain effect, the treatment of the disease is limited, the role of essential oil components have been exaggerated to some extent, Consumers should also be maintained in a rational choice.
Beware of "pseudo-Chinese beauty" trap
Experience in a massage, the girl explained to reporters while a variety of massage side of the "principle of traditional Chinese medicine", and has experience of health conditions for journalists. Cervical spine can not cupping therapy, body conditioning meridian barrier should be easy to hair loss that can not be a kidney "kidney maintenance" and so on. The reporters found that, after the division of massage, customers almost the whole body is ill, for many customers do not hesitate to spend several thousand dollars more than the conditioning regimen.
Experts warned consumers to Chinese medicine after many years of formal study and practice, to pass the "smell it look" to determine the cause, while the beautician will be able to learn through simple massage clients health status, lack of scientific basis. Reporter visited a number of beauty salons found for the guests to "Chinese Medicine" is the basic beautician, few professional physicians.
Traditional Chinese Academy of Sciences, experts told reporters that some of the traditional Chinese medicine therapies such as cupping, Gua Sha, massage, acupuncture, etc., is really a good health and body treatments, cupping and Gua Sha not ask for much because of technology, so people use more; massage and acupuncture, but different, belonging to the scope of Chinese medicine treatment, need to go through the system of traditional Chinese medicine theory and techniques of the study, and pass the examination, obtain a physician's certificate before they can be, not what people can do easily The. Such as acupuncture, if the needle light to reach the effect of needle position does not, there are likely to cause harm to the body. Massage as well. Traditional beauty treatments in the choice, you should try to choose those who are professional qualifications.
