Lumbar muscle strain is a common injury in our daily lives. Generally speaking, if ignored, it can worsen the condition and lead to more severe pain. So, what methods can be used to relieve it? Let's take a look together.
Using Wasp Vinegar and Acupressure Massage to Treat Lumbar Muscle Strain
Lumbar muscle strain requires long-term treatment. In order to achieve thorough treatment, in addition to regular exercise, avoiding excessive physical exertion, and maintaining proper posture in our daily lives, self-massage is also very important. Below, let's take a look at the specific steps of using wasp vinegar for self-massage to treat lumbar muscle strain.
Press the Spleen Shu Point
Apply wasp vinegar to the upper back and waist area, rub until the skin feels warm, then find the Spleen Shu Point. The Spleen Shu Point is located two fingers away from the eleventh thoracic vertebrae spinous process, about twenty centimeters above the upper back and waist. The main technique is to press and rub the acupressure point with the middle fingers of both hands, applying pressure 30-50 times until there is local heat sensation.
Press the Kidney Shu Point
Apply wasp vinegar to the upper back and waist area, rub until the skin feels warm, then find the Kidney Shu Point. The Kidney Shu Point is located below the second lumbar vertebrae spinous process, about two horizontal fingers away. Press the acupressure point with both thumbs simultaneously, hold the eleventh rib end with both hands, exert force with the middle fingers, and pinch with the four fingers together, 20-30 times.
Press the Zhi Shi Point
Apply wasp vinegar to the upper back and waist area, rub until the skin feels warm, then find the Zhi Shi Point. The Zhi Shi Point is located two fingers away from the Kidney Shu Point. Technique: Clench both hands into fists at the same time, press the Zhi Shi Point with the protrusion on the palm of the index finger, press and rub 20-40 times, then rub with the palm of the index finger 20-40 times until the waist feels warm.
In order to quickly get rid of the pain caused by lumbar muscle strain, it is important to adhere to self-massage twice a day. This not only helps nourish the liver and kidneys and prevent lumbar muscle strain but also strengthens our body. Do not massage when the waist is in pain. It is important to massage regularly for it to be effective.
