The Troubles of Jet Lag and Tourist Concerns

Welcome to Japan! 🇯🇵 We know you've had a long flight, and we appreciate you making the journey. 😌 But are you suffering from jet lag right after arrival? 😩 "I'm sleepy during the day... 😴" "I wake up in the middle of the night... 😳" "My body feels heavy and I can't enjoy sightseeing... 😫" It would be a shame to ruin your precious Tokyo trip with these unpleasant symptoms. 😭 In this article, we'll introduce acupuncture and oil massage to relieve jet lag and make your trip more comfortable. 👍
Causes and Symptoms of Jet Lag, and Other Discomforts from Long Flights
Jet lag is caused by a disruption in your internal body clock (circadian rhythm). ⏰ The human body is naturally programmed to follow a rhythm of activity and rest according to sunlight. ☀️ However, when you travel across multiple time zones in a short period, this rhythm is disrupted, leading to various discomforts.
Main Symptoms:
Daytime sleepiness 😴, nighttime insomnia 😳
Lethargy 😩, fatigue 😫
Headache 🤕, heavy head 🤯
Loss of appetite 🤢, indigestion 🤮
Reduced concentration and judgment 😵💫
In addition to jet lag, long flights can cause other discomforts such as:
Risk of Economy Class Syndrome (Deep Vein Thrombosis):
Poor blood circulation due to sitting in the same position for a long time 🩸
Swelling 🦵, pain 😖, and heaviness in the legs 😫
Dehydration:
Lack of water due to dry air in the cabin 💧
Thirst 🥵, headache 🤕, dizziness 😵💫
Back pain 😫, stiff shoulders 😖:
Unnatural posture in a narrow seat 💺
Muscle tension 💪, poor blood circulation 🩸
Acupuncture & Oil Massage are Effective for Jet Lag! Regain Your Senses with Various Stimuli
A combination of Eastern acupuncture and Western aromatherapy massage is effective for various symptoms of jet lag. 💯

Acupuncture:
Stimulates specific points (acupoints) on the body with needles and moxibustion. 📍🔥
The needles are very thin, so there is almost no pain. 😌
Moxibustion applies heat to the acupoints. 🔥
Aims to balance the body from the inside out. 🧘♀️
Oil Massage:
Gently massages the whole body using fragrant oils. 🌸🌿
Relieves muscle tension and promotes relaxation. 😌
Improves blood circulation and reduces swelling and fatigue. ✨

By combining acupuncture and oil massage, the "various stimuli" can help you regain your body's natural senses and potentially eliminate jet lag. 🙌 You can refresh both your mind and body and relieve travel fatigue. 💖
