**:Worker**.
Public hospitals, clearly marked prices, no sales ......With the strong recommendation of his colleagues, 26-year-old Yu Chaofan hung up a week in advance at the massage clinic of Beijing Massage Hospital. He told reporters that if you want to do massage in the hospital, you need to make an appointment at least 3 days in advance, especially on weekends, which are basically sold out as soon as they are released.
On the social platform, in addition to massage and massage, there are also many young people who are keen to share traditional Chinese medicine ** or health preservation methods such as Baduanjin, moxibustion, and scraping. These "dry goods posts" have also been hotly discussed and liked by netizens. In this regard, experts remind that you should carefully evaluate your physical condition and choose a health regimen or method that suits you, and do not blindly follow the trend.
I like the high cost performance of the massage department of a public hospital.
As a product manager, Yu Chaofan often sits in front of the computer for half a day, and his long-term desk work makes him often feel sore shoulders and necks, and some of his young colleagues also suffer from acute lumbar disc herniation, which makes Yu Chaofan feel uneasy. In order to maintain his health, he began to do massage, massage, physiotherapy and other programs frequently from 2023.
At first, I went to the massage hall, which basically cost hundreds of yuan each time, and the level of some technicians was very limited. Later, on the recommendation of a colleague, Yu Chaofan "transferred" to a massage hospital. A colleague told him that the doctor's method is more professional, and he will not charge indiscriminately or sell cards. Some colleagues are interested in the high cost performance of hospitals: "The massage department of public hospitals can be included in the medical insurance reimbursement, and some units can also be reimbursed twice, and the reimbursement may only need to pay more than ten yuan at a time." ”
Yu Chaofan found that there are not a few young people who have the same idea as him, even on weekdays, there are still many people sitting outside the clinic, and the average waiting time for each patient is more than half an hour, and some patients are still waiting while dealing with work.
The doctor will order a CT scan for the first time. Yu Chaofan said that the diagnostic analysis given to him by the doctor was that the cervical spine was mild left deviation, the physiological curvature was straightened, and it was considered that there was a lesion in the C5-6 intervertebral disc. "I was suddenly nervous, but the doctor quickly reassured me that this is quite common among young people. ”
The doctor also told Yu Chaofan that most of these cervical spine lesions are related to long-term sedentary and lack of exercise, and are more common in IT personnel, teachers, accountants, drivers and other groups.
According to the analysis of professionals, in recent years, traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy and massage have become increasingly popular among young people and are related to the rejuvenation of cervical and lumbar spine diseases. ”
Some people have an average monthly "health bill" of more than 1,000 yuan.
Not only went to the hospital to do massage, but this class of young people also brought fire to other health regimens. In a certain *** Baduan Jin teaching**single** maximum more than 28 million times, many netizens who call each other "Jinyou" check in and practice in the barrage area. On the social platform, moxibustion, scraping, tea drinking, foot soaking strategies and other "grass planting" are short**, and they are often liked and collected by more than 10,000.
Li Hao, who is engaged in the live broadcast industry in Beijing, is often busy until the second half of the night, and after a rough calculation, he found that his average monthly "health bill" exceeds 1,000 yuan: "It costs 200 yuan for oral health care products every month, 400 yuan for buying various foot soaking bags and hot compresses, and 480 yuan for massage ......."”
This year's 27-year-old Zhang Man's job is ** operation, and she also often stays up late and works overtime, and she takes oral vitamin C, zinc tablets, coenzyme Q10, milk thistle tablets, etc. almost every day. She has adhered to this habit for 5 years, and the monthly cost of this alone is about 500 yuan.
The reporter interviewed and found that with the acceleration of the pace of work and life, many young people began to pay attention to health care information and joined the health team early because they were worried that physical discomfort would affect their quality of life.
According to the data of the "China Better Life Survey" released by CCTV Finance, in 2023, healthy consumption ranks third among young people aged 18 to 35 in the consumption list. In addition, according to the "Generation Z Nutrition Consumption Trend Report" released in 2022, young people are becoming the main force of health consumption, with each urban resident spending more than 1,000 yuan per year on health and wellness, of which young consumers aged 18 to 35 account for 837%。
Experts warn that health care does not have to blindly follow the trend.
Please refrain from looking at your phone while leashing. Recently, the reporter saw in a massage hospital that in the traction room of less than 10 square meters, most of the people who are doing traction ** are young people, and ** will always remind those patients who look down at their mobile phones while ** from time to time.
Xue Weiguo, a professor at the School of Acupuncture and Massage at Beijing University of Chinese Medicine, said that young people with symptoms such as neck, shoulder, waist and leg pain are related to poor posture and lack of exercise on the one hand, and are also highly related to mental stress on the other hand. If you are stressed and emotionally anxious, it will also put your muscles in a state of tension and cause physical discomfort.
Xue Weiguo suggested that in addition to seeking massage, massage, and physiotherapy in the hospital, young people with uncomfortable symptoms should also strengthen their attention to their own body and mind in their daily life, comprehensively adjust their state from the three aspects of shape, qi and spirit, calm down to read, and chat with friends, which can also have the effect of relieving physical fatigue.
Although I can't tell how effective the health care products are, I always feel that if I don't eat these and stay up late every day, my health will definitely be worse. Li Hao said frankly that he knew that he was unwell, but he still couldn't help but stay up late to play games and play mobile phones from time to time, "Choosing to spend money on health care is also out of a self-compensating and comforting mentality." ”
In response to the phenomenon of young people pursuing traditional Chinese medicine health preservation, Xue Weiguo believes that young people can try according to their own situation, but they do not have to blindly follow the trend, the most important thing is to find a health regimen that suits their physique and living habits. ”
