      Daily health massage, for those who are healthy and have no obvious discomfort, can be done once a week. It can relax muscles and promote circulation without putting a burden on the body. If there are chronic problems such as neck, shoulder, waist and leg pain, the treatment can be performed 2-3 times a week in the acute phase, and then reduced to once a week after the symptoms are relieved to consolidate the effect.

The frequency will be determined by professional physicians based on recovery conditions. Do not make your own decisions.
