Inner Thigh Pain: Acupressure Relief
Inner thigh pain is a common health problem among adults. Most often, it can be due to
a strained muscle after working out. However, it can also be a sign of something more
serious like a blood clot, hernia, and osteoarthritis to name a few.
Nevertheless, the pain can range from a dull ache to a burning sensation. Meanwhile,
others have reported having experienced sharp stabbing pain as well. Other symptoms
also include difficulty in walking, swelling, stiffness, and muscle spasms.
For immediate relief, you can try the inner thigh pain acupressure points shown in the
video. However, should symptoms persist, it is best to consult a physician immediately.
If you are looking for a holistic approach to treating pain, you might want to consider
acupuncture therapy.
Acupuncture is an alternative medicine that promotes natural healing and wellness. It
promotes blood flow to the affected areas. Additionally, acupuncture stimulates the
release of biochemicals and hormones in the body to heal the root cause of your pain.

practitioner in Brisbane. Gua Sha is a Chinese medicine healing technique. It involves
scraping your skin with a massage tool to improve blood circulation. In a Gua Sha therapy,
a Chinese medicine practitioner applies massage oil on the skin and scrapes the skin with
a smooth-edged instrument known as a gua sha massage tool. The TCM Practitioner
repeatedly scrapes the skin in short or long strokes in a downward motion. Thus
stimulating the microcirculation of the soft tissue which increases blood flow. As a result,
gua sha reduces inflammation and promotes healing.

Cupping Therapy for Shoulder Pain Relief
The video shows cupping therapy for shoulder pain relief. So what is cupping therapy?
Cupping is a traditional Chinese medicine practice. It is a technique used to stimulate
blood flow in the body. This makes cupping therapy an effective treatment in relieving
muscle tightness, soreness, and tension.
To illustrate this ancient therapeutic treatment works by placing special cups onto
the skin. These cups then create a vacuum on the applied areas. As a result, the muscles
and tissues is sucked or drawn upwards. Now, this causes an increase in blood flow and
loosens the muscles and tissues. Thus, stimulating the natural healing process of the
body.
Moreover, cupping is considered a deep tissue massage. This is due to its functions and
numerous benefits. Some of these include breaking up scar tissues and reducing pain in
the shoulders, back, and neck areas.
Furthermore, cupping may cause temporary soreness and bruises. However, these are not
harmful. TCM practitioners actually view them as favourable outcomes. In fact, soreness
and bruises are indications that blockages and toxins in the body are removed successfully.
