Recently, a "cross -shaped body stick" that claims to be able to open shoulders and necks and corrected humpback has become popular, attracting many beauty lovers to follow the trend.

In this regard, professionals remind that the "net red" cross sticks cannot really play a role in correction. If you follow the trend at will, it may cause physical injury.

"Recommended by the body teacher, ten minutes a day, shape an elegant temperament" "The visual height of 165cm before use, 170cm height after use" ... Enter "cross sticks" and "body stick" on the e -commerce platform Similar cross -shaped cross -shaped appliances. The price of this type of commodity ranges from more than ten yuan to thirty or forty yuan, and the monthly sales of some products have exceeded 100,000 pieces.

In the details of the product with more than 30,000 pieces in January, the words "correct the posture, stay away from humpback, breasts, high and low shoulders" and other words, and also marked "adults, children, adolescents are applicable". The customer service said that the use of the product is to cross the wooden stick, stuck stuck, and stand. Together with your feet, clamp your knees, the calf muscles are tightened, your thigh muscles are raised, the hips are clamped, and the abdomen is close to the body stick with the body stick. Customer service said that persisting for 10 to 20 minutes a day, insisting on 1 month, there will be obvious effects.

Ms. Xu, who often took the office, bought a cross stick to try it. She said frankly: "I persisted for 15 minutes according to the explanation method, which was quite tired. After a while, I didn't find any changes in the posture, but I didn’t feel any harm. After all, I did n’t feel any harm. The time to sit is much longer than using the body stick. "

Occupational rehabilitation engineer who once worked at the Rehabilitation Department of the State General Administration of Sports Hospital said that from a professional point of view, when the cross sticks are only used, the body will become better in the short term. In the long run, there is no role in correction.

Human cervical spine, thoracic spine, lumbar spine, and spine themselves have physiological curvature. The principle of cross sticks is to flatten people from the state of round shoulder hump, and forcibly stretch the thoracic vertebrae, which actually violates the objective law of the human body. If it is not used properly, or the thoracic spine is not enough, the shoulder joints and lumbar spine can be extended backward, causing the lumbar spine, shoulder joints, and thoracic spine pain and damage.

"In addition, it is not particularly straight to the chest." He said that there is a term "flat back body" in sports medicine. If it is for the sake of upright, the thoracic vertebra is too straight, but there is a problem. It is particularly straight to maintain the back of the muscles for a long time, which may cause pain and strain.

He introduced that there are many reasons for humpback. Correcting through "net red" products is purely psychological comfort. On the one hand, humpback may be related to habit movements and posture. From a deeper point of view, humpback may be related to the imbalance of muscles before and after the body. By pulling the front pectoral muscles, you can train the back muscles to balance the muscles on both sides.
