subject: The Elderly Caution Massager [print this page] Massager really like the salesman put it absolutely safe?
I personally think that the situation is not entirely so. Once the improper use of massager devices, will increase or induce, the elderly must not be too dependent on it, can not be used as means of treatment.
Usually high-frequency electronic massager to be irritating to the human body mechanical vibration massager. According to the principle of vibration generated different electronic massager can be divided into two kinds of electromagnetic and electric. Electric massager device as a high vibration frequency, vibration strength is weak, more suitable for use in elderly care and massager; the electromagnetic vibration frequency as slow massager, vibration, high strength, and is therefore suitable for sports massager and young people to use.
Experts said that the present study because of improper use of various massager equipment, or add to the original injury is common in patients with the disease. He had been admitted to one, the use of massager to the local acute spinal inflammation, to suppress the sciatic nerve, causing the lower limb paralysis. He also encountered some patients, spinal disease, had also hidden only in the period, but massager on a hard object of "contradict" and "Percussion" stimulus, resulting in a soft tissue inflammation, spinal facet dislocation of the disease induced out .
Experts advise the elderly, if the body parts of a joint, or tendon is in the "painful swelling of" the acute inflammation phase, must not blind massager, or inflammation will increase, would cause severe periostitis. If the long boil or are not suitable for the use of electronic massager. Because the surface of the stimulus, will telangiectasia, local blood flow, leading to lesions spread easily and may increase the disease. If so, and, early can not use electronic massager, because when the fracture or damage to joints, due to the role of muscle tension can cause bone displacement, if premature, massager, then the shift will increase bone, but not conducive to rehabilitation . And, infectious diseases, lymphadenitis, the patient must be used with caution electronic massager device,, the patient should be especially careful not to massager the sides of neck artery to prevent blood flow acceleration accidents.
There are three classes for the elderly do not use massager, where I will cite you down:
1. Suffering from cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases of the elderly at greater risk of bleeding, while the use of massager devices will accelerate the flow velocity, virtually increased risk of disease.
2. Not concentrated in the neck and other parts of vascular free massager, or stimulate the carotid sinus blood pressure occurs, heart rate and other critical conditions.
3. Suffering from neck, lumbar the elderly, if used improperly, or even joint dislocation occurs, etc., add condition. Finally, carbuncle swollen with cancer or other surgical diseases of elderly people can not, due to surface stimulation, will telangiectasia, local blood flow which could result in increased spread of disease lesions.
