1, contraindication in acupuncture weight loss.
Now many beauty salons on the market have launched the acupuncture weight loss project. Professor Yuan Qing, director of Jin Sanzhen Research Center of Guangzhou University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that obesity is a medical disease, and acupuncture is one of the treatments of traditional Chinese medicine, which is very popular in acupuncture weight loss, but not many people actually go to the hospital to do acupuncture weight loss. On the contrary, this project in beauty salons is more prosperous.
He reminded dieters that according to the formal training channels of universities, it takes at least five years for an acupuncturist to develop from theoretical knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine to acupoint selection and manipulation. It is not enough for beauticians to simply train for a period of time, but now many beauty salons are only under the guise of "meridians" and "needles", which are actually not acupuncture. "In Chinese medicine, acupuncture weight loss comprehensively regulates the metabolic level, not to say that he can reduce his legs when his legs are thick. Acupuncture doesn't just pick up the needle and stick it in. Some sensitive parts, such as chest, back, head and aorta, can't be pasted casually. Without professional training, accidents may occur. For example, if the needle is stuck too deep in the back, it will cause pneumothorax. "
First, acupuncture weight loss also has contraindications.
Acupuncture weight loss, as a treatment, also has its indications and contraindications. Experts said that acupuncture weight loss is only suitable for simple obese people, and patients with secondary obesity caused by other diseases should treat the primary disease first. In addition, women whose menstrual period has not returned to normal after delivery or abortion, lactating women and obese patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, liver and kidney failure, tumors, hematological diseases and other serious diseases are also not suitable for acupuncture weight loss's therapy. In terms of age, it is better for young people aged 18 to 55 to pass through acupuncture weight loss, because at this age, the human body is relatively sound in all aspects, and it is easier to adjust various metabolic functions of the mechanical body through acupuncture.
Experts said that according to statistics, acupuncture weight loss's effective rate is above 80%, but in recent years' clinical experience, she found that it is almost impossible to use acupuncture weight loss for obese patients who lose weight successfully or effectively after taking diet pills for many times. She analyzed that it may be because the body of such patients has been stimulated by drugs many times and is not so sensitive to the stimulation of acupuncture.
Two, acupuncture weight loss patients in the following circumstances are not suitable for acupuncture weight loss.
1, suffering from skin diseases.
2. The unpaid blood donation is insufficient 1 month.
3. The heart function is very weak.
4. Not applicable to acupuncture weight loss who suffers from various diseases.
5. Diseases with bleeding tendency, such as hemophilia, coagulopathy, anemia, etc.
Third, acupuncture weight loss has principles.
Acupuncture combined with diet has better effect. The principle of diet control is: don't eat when you are hungry, eat vegetables, lean meat and eggs until you are full, and don't eat sweets, fat meat, potatoes, lotus roots and vermicelli. The most suitable age for acupuncture weight loss is between 20 and 40. However, there are also individual differences. Objectively speaking, some people use acupuncture weight loss's method with no obvious effect. For effective people, acupuncture weight loss is also a gradual process. It is unrealistic to expect to be slim with a few stitches.
Acupuncture weight loss has the best effect on obese adults, and the most suitable age is between 20 and 40. Especially for people with abdominal obesity, through meridian conditioning and acupuncture, the effect of losing weight for people with abdominal fat accumulation is more prominent. Secondly, for obese people whose bodies are too wet, acupuncture can induce diuresis and sweat, thus eliminating water dampness and reducing weight.
Some people are hungry because of excessive gastric acid secretion, and they always have the urge to eat. Such obese people are also called "stomach fire". The role of acupuncture and moxibustion is to reduce the stomach fire of obese people, reduce or inhibit the hyperappetite of obese people, thus reducing food intake, avoiding overeating and inhibiting their gastrointestinal digestion and absorption function.
Other people's obesity is caused by habitual constipation, and acupuncture can achieve the effect of relaxing bowels; There is also the obesity problem of menopausal women. During this period, women had little activity and endocrine disorder. If their diet is not strictly controlled, it is easy to accumulate fat and lead to obesity. Acupuncture can achieve the purpose of losing weight by regulating human endocrine.
Tips for slimming channel: Acupuncture can be done without picking up needles, and some sensitive parts, such as chest, back, head and aorta, can't be pricked casually. Without professional training, accidents may occur, such as the needle sticking too deep in the back, which will cause pneumothorax.
2. Common rumors of losing weight
Rumor 1: Girls who exercise muscles will become muscle girls.
The right idea:
Similar to this rumor, there are titles full of gimmicks, such as "Building a Muscle in Eight Weeks" and "Teaching You to Be a Muscle Man in Three Months". Muscles are not easy to practice, which requires a lot of training plus regular diet and rest. For example, a person starts to learn tennis, but says to others, "I'm worried about whether I can qualify for Wimbledon if I practice casually", or "I'm going to start to learn table tennis, but I don't want to take part in the Olympic Games. So how can we not let ourselves practice to the level of Zhang Yining? " Does that sound ironic?
Myth 2: Muscle growth will reduce the flexibility and speed of the body.
The right idea:
In fact, most athletes need strength training, because the growth of physical endurance, explosive power and speed is inseparable from the growth of muscles. Only when the muscles are too strong will the body speed decrease. What's too strong? You have to lift something twice your weight before you can talk about this topic-of course, I don't think you need to talk about it at that time.
Myth 3: Running will increase calf muscles.
The right idea:
Incorrect running posture will increase calf muscles. Please refer to running for the correct running posture. How to run? "A book. This book is the best running course I have ever seen. Some people find that their calves and thighs thicken immediately after running. I'm telling you, it's just that the leg is congested after exercise, which leads to muscle swelling, and it will return to its original state in more than ten hours or days. Long-term running will really increase the calf muscles slightly, because the nutrition absorption in this place will be better after congestion. But compared with the speed of losing fat, the speed of growing muscles is much slower.
Myth 4: People with abdominal muscles will have stronger abdominal muscles than those without them.
The right idea:
Everyone has abdominal muscles, but the problem of exposure is not revealed. The exposure of abdominal muscles is only related to body fat. The strength of abdominal muscles of people with non-exposed abdominal muscles is not necessarily worse than that of people with exposed abdominal muscles. The former may just be that the abdominal muscles are covered with fat. In short, if you want to expose your abdominal muscles, you must change your direction and lose fat, not simply gain muscle.
Myth 5: The higher the metabolic rate, the shorter the life span, and the more people exercise, the less healthy they are.
The right idea:
Life lies in exercise! Exercise can promote skeletal muscle growth, the treatment of chronic diseases, the treatment of respiratory diseases, the enhancement of cardiovascular function and the increase of bone mass!
Proverbs 6: If you exercise continuously for more than 40 minutes to reduce fat, you will sweat.
The right idea:
The essence of reducing fat is not so complicated, that is, you consume more calories than you do. As long as you exercise, you will consume calories. Anaerobic exercise can also reduce fat. At the same time, the exercise with the highest fat-reducing efficiency is HIIT (high-intensity anaerobic interval exercise). In addition, there is no direct relationship between sweating and calorie intake.
Myth 7: Aerobic exercise takes a long time and anaerobic exercise takes a short time.
The right idea:
The difference between aerobic exercise and anaerobic exercise mainly depends on the training intensity and energy supply system. High-intensity exercise is anaerobic exercise, because the anaerobic energy supply system has fast energy supply speed and high energy supply intensity. The essence of aerobic and anaerobic exercise is distinguished according to the proportion of human energy supply system. Whether an exercise is anaerobic or aerobic mainly depends on its energy supply system, its exercise intensity, and then the time. The intensity of exercise basically determines the duration of an exercise. If an exercise is mostly provided by anaerobic (phosphagen and glycolysis) systems, it cannot be called aerobic exercise. Push-ups are like this, as are basketball, baseball and football.
Myth 8: Partial fat reduction and partial slimming are impossible.
The right idea:
In fact, local slimming exists, local fat reduction does not exist, and fat reduction is all reduced together. Simply talk about local slimming:
1. Stretching fascia and massaging to relax can make your calf or waist and abdomen slim down in a short time, but it will recover if you don't persist.
2. If your previous walking posture and running posture are incorrect, and your walking and running mainly depend on your calves, you can achieve the effect of stovepipe after correcting your walking posture and running posture.
Proverb 9: Hard to pull against the waist.
The right idea:
Hard pulling mainly depends on the mass power of hip extensor, that is, hip muscle and posterior thigh muscle.
Rumor 10: no squats, no hips.
The right idea:
It is a rumor that "no squatting, no hip training" is said here. It is not that squatting can't practice hips, but this sentence is too limited, which makes many people think that squatting can practice hips. In fact, squat is not a good action to train hip muscles. This sentence actually narrows the role of squat. As for "butt bump", there are many training methods, such as "hip bridge" and "hard pull". The stimulation of hard pulling on the buttocks is greatly underestimated!
