The Chinese bubble is an ancient way to beautiful skin. It goes back to the tradition of natural medicine cultivated as long as 3,000 years ago. Nowadays, alongside all the hi-tech apparatus, the cult of the Chinese bubble is not fading, but continues to support many women in their quest for a beautiful, firm body. Given how long its history is, it is worth taking a closer look at its use.
How does the Chinese bubble work?
The negative pressure created in the rubber Chinese bubble sucks the skin together with the tissues underneath into the bubble. This strong mechanical stimulus causes extravasation of blood, which comes from small blood vessels located between the superficial fascia and the fatty tissue. The result is a congestion effect, the strength of which will depend on the area being worked on and the objective to be achieved. It sounds complicated, but the main point is that our body treats visible redness caused by an external stimulus as a foreign body. itself massage stimulates the immune system, which is mobilised to produce immune bodies.
Despite the widespread use of Chinese bubble massage in the treatment of muscle pain, physiotherapy, wellness or scar and fascial therapy, in cosmetic surgeries we are most often inclined towards its aesthetic effect, and this means reliable fight against cellulite and "orange peel" skin.
Chinese bubble - stages of treatment
We begin the treatment by applying oil to the skin and decompressing the tissues of the area being worked on using lymphatic drainage techniques. We then move on to the main part of the treatment which involves suctioning the Chinese bubble to the skin. It is worth noting that each person has a different pain threshold and, as therapists, we must of course take this into account. The massage of one batch lasts about 15-20 minutes and we are not interested in causing strong pain sensations, but only in stimulating the tissue in a controlled manner. With subsequent treatments, the sensitivity of the skin will change, the pain threshold will rise and, consequently, the area affected by cellulite will be less tender and then it will be the right time to act with a stronger vacuum.
The reddening and warming effect you get after a massage is a stimulus that is not only visible on the surface of the skin, but also comes from the deeper layers of the skin. It causes acceleration of tissue metabolismwhich, in an area affected by cellulite, gives a effect of faster removal of toxins and unnecessary water from the body. And this in turn already has a direct impact on fat distribution, breaking up the lumps visible under the skin and, as a result, from theincreasing body smoothness while reducing girth. The stimulation of circulation results in an immediate smoothing of the skin, which becomes more elastic and resistant to weight fluctuations or stretch marks.
Effects of the Chinese bubble
The Chinese bath also brings soothing relief to tired legs prone to swelling. Skin smoothing, detoxification and brightening are visible already after the first treatment. For long-lasting anti-cellulite effects, treatments are performed in a series of 8-10, depending on the severity of the problem and how quickly the tissues react.
