Massage by medical banks

Since childhood, all familiar glass cups are rounded, having thickened edges and an expanding bottom hemispherical shape with a capacity of 30 to 70 ml, or simply put, medical jars are also suitable for massage with vacuum banks for weight loss. Although some experts prefer banks with more capacity.

With the help of a burning swab impregnated with alcohol, there is a rarefaction of air, which creates a vacuum in the jar. When the cans come in contact with the body, the skin begins to retract to a height of a few centimeters, and acquires a purple-pink hue.

In childhood, many of us parents put banks for the treatment of colds or other respiratory diseases. Now, with an abundance of different medicines, few people apply this method of treatment, but this principle has proved to be very popular in cosmetology, it is on it that the cosmetology procedure, now called vacuum massage, is based. As it turned out, this massage has not only a therapeutic but also a cosmetological effect on the skin.

When carrying out vacuum facial massage, the appearance of puffiness, dark circles in the eye area decreases, the appearance of the skin improves, stagnant phenomena disappear. Also, this cosmetic procedure will help those who want to solve the problem of cellulite in the buttocks, hamstrings or in the "riding breeches" area, while eliminating the effect of "orange peel". Also, the massage with a vacuum canal has been widely used to treat various pains in the back, buttocks and thighs, as well as the collar zone and neck, waist region and shoulders, and so on.

Vacuum jar for massage

To carry out massage with a jar, the skin should be clean, it is smeared with vaseline or olive oil. For massage, only one cans, while the skin is drawn to a height of 1.5 cm. Then the can begin to move smoothly without sudden stops, while trying not to break the tightness. The skin should not be too tightly drawn, as this can make it difficult to move and provoke a trauma to the blood vessels.

For this type of massage, those parts of the body where a sufficient muscle-fat layer is the lumbar region, the line along the spine, the shoulder region, the hip and the upper third of the shin are suitable for this type of massage. The duration of the massage is from 5 to 20 minutes. When expressed persistent reddening of the skin, the procedure should be completed.

The effect of vacuum massage on the body

When carrying out can massage, irritation of the surface layers of the skin or epidermis occurs, the blood circulation and lymph flow occur, as well as the nerve endings located in the skin and subcutaneous tissue. When the jar moves in a certain direction, the mechanism of redistribution of venous-arterial blood flow occurs where the action of the vacuum occurs. As a result, the influx of arterial blood increases, which increases the flow of oxygen and various nutrients to the tissues.

In the area of ​​exposure to vacuum, decay of erythrocytes begins, which leads to stimulation of local immunity in tissues. Due to increased blood circulation and irritation of the nerve endings under the skin, a sensation of heat arises in the area of ​​the jar exposure.

It is important to conduct the movement of the canal towards the venous outflow, since this allows the movement of lymph in one direction with the movement of venous blood. To do this, you need to move the jar in the chest area from the sternum to the side of the spine along the intercostal spaces, along the spine - this direction is from the bottom up, on the hands and feet - towards the center. If the bank moves in the opposite direction, it is imperative that the final movement goes along the veins.

When carrying out a facial vacuum massage, it is necessary to take into account the structure of the circulatory and lymphatic systems in the face and neck area. To do this, a specialist who conducts this procedure must have certain skills. As a result of a wrong massage, hematomas may form, and couperose may also appear or increase.

Before starting the procedure, the specialist conducts pulsed stimulation of the lymph nodes located in the clavicle area. Then go to the lower region of the neck, then - in the middle and upper part of the neck. After processing one half of the neck, it is necessary to improve the outflow of lymph in the lower third of the face towards the lymph nodes located in the region of the chin and lower jaw.

The outflow of lymph from the middle part of the face goes to the lymph nodes located near the ears, then gradually approaching the eye area.

The periorbital zone also needs to be stimulated in order to improve the lymph flow. Vacuum massage is combined with various cosmetic procedures.

The duration of the face vacuum massage is no more than 7 minutes.

The effect of massage by vacuum banks

Scientists have long concluded that one of the main causes of aging is slow blood circulation, cells begin to receive less oxygen and the necessary nutrients, which eventually leads to intracellular metabolism slowdown. The cellular activity, and therefore the speed of skin aging, is affected by many factors: poor ecology, irrational nutrition, sedentary lifestyle. To activate metabolism, you need an external stimulus, which can be a vacuum massage. This makes it possible to increase the influx of arterial blood to the cells and, accordingly, the venous outflow from them.

First of all, it is worth noting that when performing massage by banks, a therapeutic effect takes place, which is achieved due to complete relaxation of the muscles in the affected area (which is especially effective in treating various pains). The effect of vacuum occurs not only on the receptors that are in the skin, and involves active points, which allows treating not only the problem area, but also beneficially affects the entire body. With a facial vacuum massage, fibroblasts become more active, the production of collagen and glycosaminoglycans increases, microcirculation and lymph flow improves. As a result, young, elastic and radiant skin.


Secondly, the cosmetological effect is achieved, due to the effect of rarefied air during canning massage. The supply of oxygen to the tissue increases, metabolism improves (primarily lymph flow intensification), blood circulation is normalized. As a result, the skin looks more elastic, it is less susceptible to the influence of temperature and mechanical factors, increases the contractile function of the muscles, improves overall tone, and scar tissue disappears.


The result of the vacuum massage, which is immediately noticeable, is the strengthening of the contours of the body, reducing the number of wrinkles, a healthy complexion and correction of certain facial and double chin flaws.

In the treatment of cellulite by banks, the best result is achieved by a combination of such procedures as, for example, micromassage or electrolypolysis.
