Who Should Not Have Bojin? Safety Checklist

Most healthy adults can have Bojin without any issue. But it is firm, deep manual work along the sinew and fascia, and there are situations where you should speak to your doctor first — or where we will ask you to come back another time.

We would rather turn a booking away than do something that is not right for you today.

Please read this as a “check first” list, not medical advice. We are a wellness studio, not a clinic. If any of the below applies to you, ask your doctor — and tell your therapist before the session starts, not halfway through.

Speak to your doctor first

You are pregnant, or think you might be. Tell us regardless of trimester. Several areas we work are not appropriate during pregnancy.
You take blood-thinning medication, or have a bleeding or clotting disorder. Firm manual work can bruise more easily.
You have had recent surgery, or are still healing from one.
You are undergoing treatment for a serious illness, including cancer treatment. Ask your specialist — the answer depends on your situation, and it is not ours to guess.
You have a heart condition or blood pressure that is not well controlled.
You have severe osteoporosis, or a recent fracture or injury.

Not today — come back when it has settled

Fever, flu, or any acute infection. Wait until you are properly well.
Broken skin, open wounds, active rash, eczema flare-up or sunburn in the area to be treated. We can often work a different area instead — just ask.
Recent aesthetic procedures in the area — fillers, threads, botulinum toxin, lasers, chemical peels. Ask the clinic that performed it how long to wait, and tell us what you had done.
Immediately after a heavy meal or alcohol. Give it a couple of hours; you will enjoy it more anyway.
Varicose veins in the specific area. We will work around them.

Common questions that are not actually problems

Your period. This is not a contraindication. Some guests find abdominal work uncomfortable during the first couple of days, so we will simply do a different area — shoulders, back, legs or the facial. Just say so when you arrive.
You bruise easily. Tell us and pressure is adjusted from the start. Bojin should never be a case of “no pain, no gain”.
You have never had any treatment like this. That is fine — start with the 30-minute Back Meridian Treatment rather than a long session.

What happens if you tell us

Nothing awkward. One of three things:

We adjust the pressure or avoid a specific area, and continue as normal.
We suggest a different treatment that suits you better today.
We ask you to check with your doctor and come back — and you will not be charged.

Therapists cannot see a health condition. The only way we know is if you tell us, so please do.

One thing we will always be straight about

Bojin is a wellness treatment, not a medical one. It does not cure conditions, and we will never tell you it does. What it does well is what most people actually walk in for — less tightness, better circulation, a lighter body and a brighter face.

Can I have Bojin during my period?

Yes. Menstruation is not a contraindication. Some guests find abdominal work uncomfortable during the first day or two, so we will do a different area instead — shoulders, back, legs, or the facial. Just tell your therapist when you arrive.

Can I have Bojin while pregnant?

Please speak to your doctor first, and tell us regardless of which trimester you are in. Several of the areas we work are not appropriate during pregnancy, so this is one we will not proceed with on our own judgement.

I had fillers or botulinum toxin recently. How long should I wait?

Ask the clinic that performed the procedure, as the recommended interval varies. Tell us what you had done and when, and we will either wait or work a different area.

I bruise easily. Should I avoid Bojin?

Not necessarily — tell your therapist at the start and pressure is adjusted from the beginning rather than after the fact. If you take blood-thinning medication or have a clotting disorder, speak to your doctor first.

Still not sure?

Message us before you book and describe your situation. If we think you should check with a doctor first, we will say so.

大多数健康成年人做拨筋都没有问题。但它是沿着筋膜与软组织施作、力道扎实的徒手手法，有些情况需要先问过医生 —— 或者我们会请您改天再来。

我们宁可推掉一笔生意，也不想在今天不适合的状况下硬做。

以下请当作「要先确认」的清单，不是医疗建议。我们是养生工作室，不是诊所。如果符合以下任何一项，请询问您的医生 —— 并在疗程开始前告知理疗师，不要做到一半才说。

请先问过医生

怀孕中，或可能怀孕。不论第几期都请告知我们。我们施作的部位中有几个在孕期并不适合。
正在服用抗凝血药物，或有凝血功能问题。扎实的徒手手法比较容易造成瘀青。
近期动过手术，或伤口还在恢复中。
正在接受重大疾病治疗，包括癌症治疗。请询问您的主治医师 —— 答案因人而异，不是我们能替您判断的。
有心脏疾病，或血压控制得不理想。
严重骨质疏松，或近期有骨折、外伤。

今天先别做 —— 等状况过了再来

发烧、感冒或任何急性感染。请等身体真正好了再来。
施作部位有伤口、破皮、正在发作的疹子或湿疹、晒伤。通常我们可以改做别的部位，直接跟我们说就好。
该部位近期做过医美 —— 填充、埋线、肉毒、雷射、换肤。请问施作的诊所要间隔多久，并告诉我们您做了什么。
刚吃饱或刚喝完酒。隔个一两小时再来，体验也会好很多。
该部位有静脉曲张。我们会避开。

常被问、但其实不是问题的

生理期。这不是禁忌。有些客人在前一两天觉得腹部施作不太舒服，那我们就改做别的部位 —— 肩颈、背部、腿部或面部护理。到店时说一声即可。
容易瘀青。告诉我们，力道一开始就会调整。拨筋不该是「不痛就没效」那一套。
从来没做过类似疗程。没关系 —— 从 30 分钟的肩颈背部调理开始，不要一次做长时间的。

告诉我们之後会怎样

不会尴尬，只会有三种结果：

我们调整力道或避开某个部位，照常进行。
我们建议改做今天更适合您的疗程。
我们请您先问过医生再来 —— 而且不会收费。

理疗师看不出您的身体状况，唯一知道的方法就是您告诉我们，所以请务必说。

有一件事我们一定会讲清楚

拨筋是养生调理，不是医疗行为。它不能治病，我们也绝不会这样告诉您。它真正擅长的，正是大多数人走进来的原因 —— 不那么紧绷、循环变好、身体轻一点、气色亮一点。

生理期可以拨筋吗？

可以。生理期不是禁忌。有些客人在前一两天觉得腹部施作不太舒服，那我们就改做别的部位 —— 肩颈、背部、腿部或面部护理。到店时告诉理疗师即可。

怀孕可以拨筋吗？

请先咨询医生，并且不论第几期都要告知我们。我们施作的部位中有几个在孕期并不适合，这一项我们不会自行判断就进行。

刚打完填充或肉毒，要隔多久？

请询问替您施作的诊所，建议间隔因项目而异。告诉我们您做了什么、什么时候做的，我们会选择等待或改做其他部位。

我很容易瘀青，是不是不该做拨筋？

不一定 —— 一开始就告诉理疗师，力道会从头调整，而不是事後才补救。如果您有服用抗凝血药物或凝血功能问题，请先咨询医生。

还是不确定？

预约前先讯息我们，说明您的状况。如果我们认为您该先问过医生，我们会直说。

WhatsApp 联系我们 —— 乌节（Pacific Plaza）、丹戎巴葛（Oxley Tower）、美世界（JK Building），每周七天营业。
