Effects of the Migun


The MIGUN Thermal Massage System represents the fusion of Eastern and Western Medical techniques. It's design is inspired by combining the modalities of Acupressure, Acupuncture, heat therapy (moxibustion), Chiropractic, and Massage.
 
Eastern Medical Principles:
For many centuries, Eastern Medical practices were a mystery in the west. This is because of the fundamental difference in the way Eastern doctors look at and treat the Body.

In Western Medicine, Doctors treat symptoms of distress as isolated incidents based on localized problems. A diseased organ or localized musculoskeletal pain is treated on the localized level, with little thought given to general health and balance in the body's systems.

In Eastern Medicine, Doctors see illness, pain, and other incapacity as signs of overall imbalance in the body, not simply one organ, muscle or limb. They look for weaknesses and blockages in Chi or energy. Chi flows along Meridians, or pathways throughout the body, establishing balances of energy and maintaining the body's ability to function. When it is blocked or diverted, Doctors seek to relieve the blockage as a means of creating a balance throughout the body. It is believed that once the body is in balance it may be able to heal itself, and or prevent disease from happening.


Migun products use the following Oriental principals:

Acupuncture Effect
For the past 3000 years, acupuncture has remained the most popular medical practice among Oriental medical practitioners. The purpose of acupuncture is to stimulate the activity of nerve systems by inserting a needle. Migun uses a unique combination of helium gas bulbs and jade-massage heads to create far reaching infrared rays that stimulate circulation up to 7 centimeters deep in tissues. The light and heat energy will do the role of a needle. In other words, Migun uses the newest technology to become the evolved form of acupuncture.

Moxibustion Effect
Moxibustion is a treatment that applies heat to certain spots on the body by burning moxa on the skin. Moxa is a dried herb, derived from the species mugwort. Migun uses a unique combination of helium gas bulbs and jade-massage heads to create far reaching infrared rays that stimulate circulation up to 7 centimeters deep in tissues. The use of heat stimulates blood flow and tissue response, encouraging overall muscle relaxation, relieving pain, and releasing toxins trapped in the musculature.






Massage Effect
The simple, ancient practice of muscle manipulation is used as a means of promoting proper blood-flow, muscle relaxation and flexibility. Massage is well known by all medical practitioners to ease chronic muscle pain, speed recovery from injuries, improve rest, and concentration, and promote a general sense of well-being. The Internal Jade Massage Heads automatically massage muscles and tendons around the spine, relieving tension and helping energy flows.



Finger Pressure (Acupressure) Effect
Hand and finger pressure applied to specific pressure-points temporarily block chi, restoring proper pathways and flushing out toxins that have built up during the imbalance. Migun uses the body's own weight to achieve this same effect. The combination of acupressure effect and heat will boost your energy level.




Jade Effect
When looking at various oriental medical books, the ancient oriental people believed that jade heals stressed organs and discharges toxins. They also believed that Jade slows the process of cell aging and has the excellent ability to strengthen the body's natural defenses and healing power.

Jade contains vital elements for the human body, such as minerals, calcium, magnesium and water. In addition, Jade is known as a natural transmitter of far infrared rays. It is because of these important and valuable benefits that Migun uses jade massage caps only on all our products.

Far Infrared Rays
Using light bulbs and Jade caps produces more effective heat and far infrared rays than conventional methods. This combination of modern technology and traditional healing treatment will give you thousands of years of wisdom with the cutting-edge scientific breakthrough of today.

For more than 30 years, the far infrared rays have been used to treat patients, and the treatment has been proven successful and effective. Just imagine how the jade massage caps will target the right areas on your back and loosen all the tight muscles. At the same time, the soothing warmth of the Jade massage will make you feel relaxed and comfortable. You will feel healthier, fresher and more alive than ever before!

How your Body Works


 
Your Spine ? Your Core:
Simply put, your spine is the core of your whole body. It's tied into every system, organ, and part of you. It supports your weight, allows you to stand erect, flexes and twists to allow you to move in every conceivable way. It houses and protects your nervous system, which connects every other part of you to your brain. In the Eastern medical tradition the spine is like a 'super-highway' for your "chi" or life energy.

When your spine is healthy and strong, you are more flexible, you rest better, you work better, and you play better. In short, you feel better. But with the rigors of everyday life, as well as the aging process, not to mention the occasional traumatic injuries we all suffer, weakness & damage are often the norm these days. Many of these conditions are listed below:

"Subluxation":
Subluxation is a chiropractic term used to describe a 'misalignment of the spine'. Since the Spine is made up of 24 'vertebrae', a misalignment refers to any one of these vetebrae being out of place. Any number of factors can cause a subluxation to occur, including physical trauma, mental or emotional stress, overworked muscles, and more. Any misalignmentt of this type can cause pain, loss of flexibility, physical weakness, and often leads to other muscular problems and even nerve conditions such as "Sciatica". Eastern Medical experts believe that subluxations lead to the blockage of 'chi' or energy, which can lead to weakness in your immune system, and severe illness.

The Aging Process:
As your body ages, your bones tend to become more brittle, less able to absorb shock, muscles lose their elasticity, and you become more susceptible to weakness and disease. Your spine takes on all of these characteristics and as such needs vigilant care and attention to avoid long term damage and the resulting blockage of 'chi'.
