Ankylosing spondylitis is a chronic inflammatory joint disease, which mainly affects the spine and pelvis. It can cause symptoms such as spinal stiffness, pain, joint swelling, and limited movement. In the treatment of Ankylosing spondylitis, medication is the main method, but physical therapy such as Massage chair can also help alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life of patients. This article will explain the role of Massage chair in relieving Ankylosing spondylitis.

Ankylosing spondylitis patients often have muscle tension and stiffness, which is caused by Muscle contraction caused by chronic inflammatory stimulation. The Massage chair can help relax muscles, reduce muscle tension and pain by using different massage techniques, such as gentle squeezing, kneading and massage.

Secondly, the Massage chair can promote blood circulation and lymph flow. Ankylosing spondylitis can cause joint swelling and local circulation obstruction, which will aggravate pain and inflammation. The Massage chair stimulates and increases blood flow, improves local oxygen and nutrition supply, and helps reduce swelling and inflammation through massage and vibration. At the same time, the Massage chair can also promote the flow of lymph, enhance the body's ability to detoxify and clean up waste.

Third, the Massage chair can improve joint flexibility and range of motion. Due to the long-term inflammatory stimulation of Ankylosing spondylitis, the patient's joints will become stiff and movement will be limited. The massage technique of the Massage chair can stimulate the tissues around the joints, promote the secretion of joint lubricant, reduce friction, and thus improve joint flexibility and range of motion. In addition, massage can also improve posture and spinal symmetry, help maintain good posture and reduce spinal pressure.

Finally, the Massage chair can relieve mood and pressure. Patients with Ankylosing spondylitis often suffer from depression and anxiety due to long-term illness and pain. The massage and relaxation effects of the Massage chair can stimulate the body to release Endorphins, Serotonin and other "pleasure hormones", promote the relaxation of the body and mind, reduce anxiety and depression, and play a positive role in emotional regulation.

To sum up, the Massage chair plays an important role in relieving Ankylosing spondylitis. It helps alleviate pain, improve quality of life, and provide patients with a comfortable and enjoyable massage experience by relaxing muscles, promoting blood circulation and lymph flow, improving joint flexibility and range of motion, as well as soothing emotions and reducing stress.
