What are the advantages and disadvantages of sweating during confinement?

In daily life, more and more women pay attention to their physical health as they get older, especially after giving birth. Sweating is a way to regulate the body after childbirth. Sweating after childbirth has many benefits for physical health. Sweating after childbirth can not only help women improve their body's resistance, but also help women recover after childbirth. However, improper sweating will affect women's physical health.

The advantages and disadvantages of sweating during confinement

Eliminate dampness and coldness in the body

When women give birth, their muscles and bones are wide open, their body's positive energy is insufficient, and their resistance is reduced. External evils such as wind, cold, heat and dampness will take the opportunity to invade the body. During the recovery period of confinement, their muscles and bones gradually close, allowing the wind and cold to be trapped in the body and difficult to expel. After a full month, high-temperature sweating can promote blood circulation, activate metabolism, clean the pores, stretch the body, and expel dampness and cold from the body.

Unblock the meridians throughout the body

Sweating during the full moon can make the skin on the whole body rosy and the pores dilated, which can achieve the effects of clearing away heat and detoxifying, dispelling wind and dampness, dredging wind and cold, warming the meridians, and quickly blocking the pathogenesis of the disease. It has a good effect on postpartum diseases (postpartum headache, back pain, joint pain all over the body, muscle soreness, lump, numbness, pain, chills and many other symptoms).

Improve blood circulation

According to traditional Chinese medicine, postpartum sweating not only dredges the meridians and activates the organs throughout the body, but also has the function of regulating nerves, dilating the surrounding small blood vessels, and improving the microcirculation system. Sweating during the full moon can not only expel killed bacteria and viruses from the body, but also promote blood circulation, strengthen the phagocytic function of cells, and balance the body's functions to achieve the effect of replenishing qi and blood and enhancing immunity.

Detoxification

Sweat contains a natural antibody called Dermicidin, which can kill harmful bacteria such as Escherichia coli, Staphylococcus aureus, and thrush yeast. Sweating during the full moon can expel bacteria and viruses.

Weight loss

After the full month, the mother can eliminate excess water in the body and relieve edema through sweating. Sweating can also accelerate metabolism and break down fat, thereby achieving the goal of postpartum weight loss.

Disadvantages of sweating during the full moon

Damage to body fluids.

Excessive sweating after childbirth can cause body fluid loss, which can easily lead to a variety of diseases such as abnormal urination, difficulty in defecation and insufficient milk secretion. Especially in the hot summer, forced sweating after childbirth can easily cause collapse, heatstroke, and even life-threatening.

How many times should you sweat during the full moon?

If you have a very good confinement period, you can do it once; if you have some symptoms of cold, it is best to do it three to four times, the time arrangement is 30, 42, 60, and 100 days after delivery:

1. 30 days. Eliminate wind, cold and dampness from the mother's body, lay the foundation for her physical recovery and prevent postpartum diseases.

2. 42 days. Just after the postpartum period, it is necessary to regulate and repair the meridian damage caused by the mother during the delivery process, dredge the meridians, and promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

3. 60 days. Thoroughly expel toxins accumulated in the body, maintain a healthy microenvironment in the mother's body, and enhance immunity!

4. 100 days. Consolidate the foundation, consolidate the postpartum recovery effect achieved by the first three sweating sessions, expel the remaining toxins in the body, and ensure that when the bones are closed, the wind, cold, dampness, garbage and residual toxins in the body are expelled from the body!
