What are the massage techniques for fever due to wind-cold type of common cold?

Cold-wind感冒 refers to symptoms caused by a viral infection, primarily characterized by cold and wind-cold manifestations such as fever, runny nose, sneezing, and sore throat. Fever refers to elevated body temperature. Generally, massage techniques used to treat fever associated with cold-wind感冒 include back massage, arm massage, foot massage, shoulder-neck massage, and head massage. Specific details are as follows:

1. Back Massage: Performing massage on the patient's back can promote blood circulation and the flow of qi and blood, helping to relieve back muscle tension and alleviate symptoms.

2. Arm Massage: The therapist uses rotating and kneading techniques to massage and manipulate the patient’s arms. Arm massage helps stimulate meridians and acupoints in the arms, regulate the flow of qi and blood, and enhance overall immunity.

3. Foot Massage: Foot massage promotes internal circulation of qi and blood, strengthens immunity, and aids in relieving symptoms.

4. Shoulder-Neck Massage: Targeted massage therapy applied to the patient’s shoulders and neck helps relieve tension and discomfort in these areas, improves blood circulation, and alleviates fever symptoms.

5. Head Massage: Using finger pressure, kneading, and other techniques, the therapist treats the patient’s head, including acupoints and scalp. Head massage stimulates meridians and acupoints in the head, relieves head discomfort, improves blood circulation, and reduces fever.

If any physical discomfort occurs, medical attention should be sought at a hospital promptly.
