We all use knives to cut fruits, vegetables and other things, but do you know that knives are also used for massage? This may sound a little strange to you, but it is absolutely true. Actually, in the massage parlors of Taiwan, people are massaged on a large scale with knives. It is called 'Douliao'. Its Chinese meaning is 'massage with a knife' or 'knife therapy'. It is very popular in Chinese medicine. The history of knife massage there is about 2000 years old. It is said that Buddhist monks started it.
This therapy also flourished in Japan during the rule of the Tang dynasty about a thousand years ago. This tradition of knife massage reached Taiwan during the Chinese civil war in the 1940s. Although the practice of this therapy has almost ended in China and Japan, it is still very popular in Taiwan.
Knife massage is also being used to heal wounds, improve sleep and cure chronic body pain. Just like acupressure therapy is done in Chinese medicine, pressure points are targeted in knife therapy. These are called QI-doors.
There are many knife massage parlors in the capital Taipei. In this, the therapist cleans two knives with chemicals and then massages the entire body with them. During the massage, pressure is applied on the pressure points of the body. This is similar to the aquapuncture method used for treatment in China.
It is very important to follow some rules in knife therapy. For example, if the person giving the masseur is not in a good mood, then he should not be given a knife. It is believed that the bad energy of such a masseur will have a bad effect on the person receiving the massage.
Those who do knife massage should always work with positive energy. For this, they all have to eat pure vegetarian food. According to a media report, it was promoted by Buddhist monks of China. About a thousand years ago, the Tang dynasty spread it in Japan. This practice has almost ended in Japan and China, but it is still going on in Taiwan.
