Regular overtime work and sitting for long periods of time can easily lead to a bulging waist and abdominal fat accumulation, as well as constipation. Long-term detoxification problems directly affect the skin quality and complexion. Using abdominal scraping can effectively stimulate intestinal peristalsis, promote abdominal blood circulation, improve gastrointestinal motility, effectively improve digestive system function, and alleviate the troubles of constipation. It can also help burn fat and tighten the abdomen.
1. Abdominal acupoints
(1) Tianshu acupoint: two fingers on both sides of the navel;
(2) Guanyuan acupoint: four fingers below the navel;
(3) Qihai acupoint: one finger below the navel.
2. Abdominal scraping technique
When scraping, it is better to lie on your back, use a scraping board to massage in a clockwise direction with the navel as the center, exerting even pressure without excessive force, and stop when the skin on the abdomen becomes slightly red. Then use the corner rubbing method to massage the above-mentioned Tianshu acupoint, Guanyuan acupoint, and Qihai acupoint. The corner rubbing method refers to using the thick edge or the side of the scraping board as the focal point, exerting force on the effective acupoints, and applying continuous rotating and looping movements to stimulate the tissue beneath the skin with moderate pressure.
3. Waist slimming effect
Do it once a day and you will see visible results. Generally, after three days to a week of scraping, constipation will be improved to a certain extent. Persist for half a month to a month, and you will feel lighter and see a reduction in abdominal fat.
