Massage is one of the oldest medical methods in China. It is a natural therapy that the working people of our country have gradually summarized, understood and developed during their long-term struggle with diseases. As early as ancient times, when a certain part of the human body was bleeding due to injury, people would instinctively press with their hands to stop the bleeding; when a part of the body was bulging due to injury, people would naturally massage and rub it to make the bulging smaller or even disappear, thereby relieving the swelling and pain. In the long-term process of understanding and practice, massage has gradually evolved from unconscious and accidental movements into a systematic treatment method that is freely used by people. China's earliest extant medical classic, the Huangdi Neijing, contains 9 articles on massage in Suwen and 5 in Lingshu. As for other classics, there are many records about massage.

Massage can not only prevent and cure diseases, but also regulate and maintain health. It has no side effects and is really suitable for us to learn and practice at home. As the book says: "Self-massage is also called 'self-massage' and 'health massage.'" I think this natural therapy is mysterious and interesting. I can try it with my girlfriend in the future so that she can also feel the benefits of massage!
Very good, but the acupuncture point pictures are missing.
