DESCRIPTION:
BRIEF SUMMARY
FIELD OF THE INVENTION
The invention relates to the field of medical cosmetology and may be used as an alternative solution to surgical removal of face defects.
Massage is mechanical action on the tissues of an organism. Its physiological effect is due to the reflex effect on the organism: even with light surface massage, at first there is a reaction by the cutaneous ceptors, and then there is a reflex reaction by the nervous system, blood circulation, lymphopoiesis. The effectiveness of the procedure depends on the technique, the length of the action, the number of treatments.
There are different kinds of massage: 1) hygienic, wherein the object is to improve the health of the organism and provide prophylaxis against the occurrence of defects (cosmetic massage relates to this type of massage); 2) therapeutic massage (including, plastic), widely used during different illnesses; 3) sports massage, the object of which is to remove tiredness and enhance working capacity.
BACKGROUND ART
It is known that different methods of massage were already used in ancient times. In Russia, massage was first given scientific basis and used by A. I. Pospelov. Cosmetologists in our era, as a rule, use methods developed in the Moscow Scientific-Research Cosmetology Institute. ("Handbook on Medical Cosmetology," Leningrad, "Meditsina," 1978, pp. 60-63; I. I. Kolgunenko "Lessons in Beautification," 3rd ed., Kiev, Reklama, 1980; "Methodical Recommendations on Carrying Out Massage of the Face and Neck," TsPKTB, Minbyt RSFSR, 1976.)
Hygienic massage, at the base of which lies surface, measured, smooth. movements carried out in strict accordance with the direction of the massage lines, is, used in the majority of cases in the field of cosmetology. A small amount of one or another massage agent (cream or vegetable oil, for example olive oil) or talcum is preliminarily applied to the skin. The massage is carried out with light, soft, rhythmic movements, without stretching the skin. The length of one treatment of hygienic massage is 15-20 minutes, a course consists of 10-20 treatments.
Therapeutic massage is prescribed for several illnesses (neurological, skin blood circulation disturbances, disturbances of sebum isolation, acne, etc.). It is carried out, as a rule, in a more energetic manner than hygienic massage. There are several kinds of therapeutic massage: plastic, therapeutic massage according to Professor A. I. Pospelov, therapeutic massage according to Jacque.
The essence of plastic massage is deeper mechanical action on not only the skin and facial muscles, but also on subcutaneous fat, circulatory and lymphatic vessels. The aim of plastic massage is not prophylaxis but treatment of ageing.
At the base of the known method for plastic massage proposed by I. I. Kolgunenko lies strictly rhythmic, rather strong and deep pressures, with vibrations (or without vibrations), without shifting facial tissues and directed inwards and to bones. Pressure is applied taking the location and direction of massage lines into account and using talcum. The length of one session is 10-15 minutes, a course consists of from 10 to 25 treatments. It is a generally accepted practice to alternate plastic massage with, talcum with hygienic massage with cream.
Therapeutic massage according to A. I. Pospelov and Jacque acts on the subaceous glands. The aim of such a massage is to remove the contents of subaceous glands and acnes, to resorb infiltrates, to cleanse fatty and provide treatment of porous. skin. At the base of the massage according to A. I. Pospelov are stroking and pinching actions which are carried out with the tips of the thumb and index fingers of the right hand in a certain direction; this massage is performed on a dry face. Massage according to Jacque is based on strong and frequent pinches with gripping of not only the skin but also the subcutaneous fat. The movements are carried out with the thumb and index finger, taking the direction of the massage lines into account. Massage is also performed with talcum. The length of each tre
