The principle of scraping to treat breast hyperplasia

Gua Sha can relieve the symptoms of breast hyperplasia by promoting local blood circulation and unblocking meridians. Breast hyperplasia is often caused by endocrine disorders, emotional stress, bad living habits and other factors. Gua Sha, as a traditional Chinese medicine external treatment method, can relieve pain and improve symptoms by stimulating the skin and meridians and regulating the circulation of qi and blood.

1. Promote blood circulation. Gua Sha stimulates the expansion of capillaries by scraping the skin surface, increases local blood flow, improves blood supply and metabolism of breast tissue, and thus alleviates the discomfort of breast hyperplasia. When scraping, you should pay attention to moderate strength to avoid excessive stimulation. It is recommended to be performed under the guidance of a professional Chinese medicine practitioner.

2. Unblocking meridians. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that breast hyperplasia is related to liver qi stagnation and poor blood circulation. Gua Sha helps unblock meridians, regulate the flow of qi and blood, and relieve breast pain by scraping related meridians, such as the Foot Jueyin Liver Meridian and the Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian. Lubricating media, such as scraping oil or essential oils, can be used in conjunction with scraping to reduce skin friction.

3. Regulate endocrine. Breast hyperplasia is closely related to endocrine disorders. Gua Sha can regulate hormone levels in the body and improve endocrine function by stimulating specific acupoints, such as Tanzhong acupoint and Rugen acupoint, thereby alleviating the symptoms of breast hyperplasia. Hot compress or moxibustion can be performed after Gua Sha to enhance the therapeutic effect.

4. Relieve emotional stress. Emotional fluctuations and excessive stress can aggravate the symptoms of breast hyperplasia. Gua Sha can relax the body and mind, relieve tension, and indirectly improve breast health. When doing Gua Sha, you should pay attention to a quiet and comfortable environment and take deep breaths to achieve a better relaxation effect.

Gua Sha, as an auxiliary treatment for breast hyperplasia, needs to be combined with a healthy lifestyle and regular check-ups to effectively control symptoms and prevent recurrence.
