The present invention is related to a system and operating mechanism method, which is an auxiliary product for massage, and is a device or method specifically used for data calculation or data processing for specific applications. IPC International Patent Classification: A61H 37/00, G06F 19/00; it refers to a massage teaching system with resistance adjustment execution teaching system, pressure positioning teaching system, massage implementation teaching system, and a massage teaching system and operating mechanism method that considers factors of both the masseur and the massagee to implement massage and maximize the palpation effect.

The applicant has conducted a cross-search of approximately 2,400 patents for the following search keywords, such as (education) OR (teaching) AND (system) (massage), (massage) (system) OR (program) OR (platform), (~patent/CN109427218B) (massage) AND (teaching), (massage) (guidance) (teaching), (manual massage) (teaching), (~patent/CN106859956B), (massage) (method) (teaching), etc., and selected five prior cases as follows: For example, prior case 1 is a patent for a Chinese university The Chinese patent is a "human body acupoint identification massage method, device and AR equipment" patent (Announcement No.: CN106859956B); its main technical solution is: determine the human body part displayed in the real-time acquisition image, the real-time acquisition image is a display image captured in real time by a shooting device; extract the acupoint information contained in the human body part according to the human body acupoint distribution information; display the acupoint information in the image position corresponding to the human body part; obtain the massage method information related to the acupoint information; display the massage method information in the current display image. The invention is mainly used for automatic identification and acupoint massage of acupoints.

For example, the second previous case is a Chinese mainland patent, which is "A massage technique three-dimensional mechanical measuring instrument and its measuring method" (Announcement No.: CN103745638A); it uses a pressure sensor to calculate muscle hardness based on the pressure, that is, it uses a three-dimensional force sensor to collect the mechanical characteristics of massage techniques, and through data analysis and technique recognition models, it conducts quantitative evaluation of massage techniques to improve the objectivity and accuracy of the evaluation.

For example, the third patent of the previous case is a Chinese mainland patent, which is "a kind of intelligent massage teaching system and its use method" (Announcement No.: CN111192496A). According to its abstract, it includes a central processing module and a communication module electrically connected to it, a touch display module, a voice module, a human body model and a magnetic part worn on the user's hand; the human body model is drawn in proportion and marked with meridians and acupuncture points, and each acupuncture point is equipped with a magnetic device. There are electromagnets and LED lights, which are electrically connected to the central processing module and turned on or off according to the instructions of the central processing module. When turned on, they attract magnetic parts to guide the user to find the acupoints, and the LED lights are turned on when the acupoints are found. There are pressure sensors, inertia sensors, and frequency sensors under each acupoint to collect massage information of the masseur, and the collected massage information is displayed on the touch display module.

For example, the fourth case is a Chinese mainland patent, which is "A human acupoint intelligent teaching system" (Announcement No.: CN206021739U). According to its abstract, it includes a central processing circuit and a voice broadcast circuit. A signal indicator and a pressure sensor are set at the position corresponding to each acupoint in the epidermis of the proportional human model. The voice broadcast circuit, signal indicator and pressure sensor are respectively connected to the central processing circuit.

For example, the fifth patent in the previous case is a Chinese mainland patent, which is a "Human acupoint display and intelligent voice broadcast teaching system" (Announcement No.: CN203376885U). It uses a silicone proportional human model, display indication circuit, and control circuit to display and voice broadcast information such as the name, location, and efficacy of massage acupoints, thereby improving the accuracy and effect of massage. It can be applied to massage learning, training, remote guidance, and home massage.

The first case uses AR technology to determine the body part to be massaged through image matching, and displays the corresponding acupoint location and the corresponding massage method in the image; the second case uses a pressure sensor to calculate the hardness of the muscle according to the pressure; the third case uses human body models, electromagnets, IED lights, pressure sensors and other equipment to provide auxiliary guidance and evaluation of massage acupoints; the fourth case uses a proportional human body model, signal indicator lights, pressure sensors and voice broadcast circuits to provide guidance and evaluation of the intensity of massage acupoints, providing The accuracy and effect of massage can be improved, and it can be applied to massage learning, training, remote guidance and home massage.

Cases 1, 3, 4, and 5 disclose massage methods and techniques related to acupoints, and adjust the massage force according to the depth of the acupoints, which is consistent with acupoint guidance. , and the previous case 2 uses a pressure sensor to calculate muscle hardness based on the pressure, but it does not reveal the massage palpation mechanism that targets muscles rather than acupoints, and does not accurately judge the hardness and depth of the muscles by judging the changes in resistance. Since muscle hardness is the main factor affecting the resistance of pressing, the previous case cannot accurately judge the hardness of the muscles by judging the changes in resistance and adjust the appropriate massage force to confirm the massage depth to avoid the possibility of massage injuries; and the product cannot quantify the muscle hardness data, so it cannot be used to The hardness of muscles is judged by analyzing muscle variables, environmental variables, and abnormal variables. As a result, the previous case cannot analyze the muscle variables, including the structure, composition, and function of muscles, and the environmental variables, including the body shape, muscle quality, and body posture of the person being massaged; it cannot analyze the abnormal variables, including the angle, force, and time of the massager. Therefore, the previous case cannot accurately judge the hardness of muscles, so that learners can learn the difference in force faster and ensure the effectiveness of massage, which greatly reduces its practicality.

In order to solve the above-mentioned deficiencies of the existing technology, the main purpose of the present invention is to provide a massage teaching system, which includes a pressure positioning teaching system, a resistance adjustment execution palpation teaching system and a massage implementation teaching system. The massage teaching system is also connected to a massage teaching database, in order to overcome the difficulties in the existing technology.

The secondary purpose of the present invention is to provide a massage teaching system, which implements the palpation teaching system through a playback mechanism and resistance adjustment, and uses sensors that can track mechanical and kinematic data to obtain the resistance value changes of the muscle block before and after each massage in real time.

Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a massage teaching system that uses muscle hardness data to quantify the strength of the massage, so that the massager has a baseline strength value. By adjusting the resistance to perform palpation, the massager can know the appropriate strength, as well as the position and implementation of the massage.

Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a massage teaching system that effectively improves its ease of use and accurately determines the depth of the muscle to avoid injuries.

Another purpose of the present invention is to provide a massage teaching operation mechanism method with the following steps: 1. Start; 2. Determine the muscle part to be massaged; 3.

The resistance adjustment is completed and the palpation is completed; 7. Execute the massage implementation teaching system; 8. The massage implementation teaching is completed; 9. The learning is completed.

The problem to be solved by the present invention is that the aforementioned prior case 1 is a Chinese mainland patent (publication number: CN106859956B); the prior case 2 is a Chinese mainland patent (publication number: CN103745638A); the prior case 3 is a Chinese mainland patent (publication number: CN111192496A); the prior case 4 is a Chinese mainland patent (publication number: CN206021739U); the prior case 5 is a Chinese mainland patent (publication number: CN203376885U), and the prior case 1 uses AR technology to determine the body part to be massaged through image matching, and displays the corresponding acupuncture point location and the corresponding massage method in the image. ; Case 2 uses a pressure sensor to calculate the hardness of the muscle according to the intensity of the pressure; Case 3 uses a human body model, an electromagnet, an LED light, a pressure sensor and other equipment to provide auxiliary guidance and evaluation of massage points; Case 4 uses a proportional human body model, a signal indicator light, a pressure sensor and a voice broadcast circuit to guide and evaluate the intensity of massage points, improve the accuracy and effect of massage, and can be applied to massage learning, training, remote guidance and home massage. Case 5 uses a silicone proportional human body model, a display indicator circuit and a control circuit to display and voice broadcast information such as the name, location and efficacy of massage points. Improve the accuracy and effect of massage, and can be applied to massage learning, training, remote guidance and family massage. Therefore, the first, third, fourth and fifth cases disclose massage methods and techniques related to acupoints, adjust the massage force according to the depth of acupoints, and guide acupoints. The second case uses a pressure sensor to calculate the muscle hardness according to the pressure. However, it does not disclose the massage palpation mechanism for muscles rather than acupoints, and does not accurately judge the hardness and depth of muscles by judging the change of resistance. Since the hardness of muscles is the main factor affecting the resistance of pressing, the application of the previous case cannot judge the change of resistance and accurately judge the hardness of muscles and adjust the appropriate massage. The strength of the massage can be used to confirm the depth of the massage to avoid the possibility of massage injuries; and the training materials cannot quantify the muscle hardness data, so it is impossible to judge the hardness of the muscle through the analysis of muscle variables, environmental variables, and heterogeneous variables. As a result, the training plan cannot use muscle variables including muscle structure, composition, function, etc. and environmental variables including the body shape, muscle quality, body posture, etc. of the massager; it cannot use heterogeneous variables including the massager's pressing angle, strength, time, etc. to analyze these factors, so the training plan cannot accurately judge the hardness of the muscle to enable learners to learn the strength difference faster and ensure the effectiveness of massage, which greatly reduces its practicality.

Figure 2: An example diagram of the operating mechanism flow of the system of the present invention.

The third picture is an example of placing the calf of the person being massaged about 2cm away from the bed surface.

Figure 4: An example of an implementation in which the inner angle between the lower leg and the sole of the foot of the person being massaged is 60 degrees.

The present invention is described in detail below with the help of the attached drawings and in the form of an embodiment. The drawings used in the text are only for illustration and auxiliary description, and may not be the actual proportion and precise configuration after the implementation of the present invention. Therefore, the proportion and configuration of the attached drawings should not be used to limit the patent scope of the present invention in actual implementation.

Please refer to the first, second, third and fourth figures, which are the system architecture of the present invention, the implementation diagram of the system operation mechanism flow of the present invention, the implementation diagram of placing the lower leg of the person being massaged at a distance of about 2CM from the bed surface, and the implementation diagram of the lower leg of the person being massaged and the inner angle of the sole of the foot forming an angle of 60 degrees; in a preferred implementation example of the massage teaching system of the present invention, the massage teaching system 1 includes a pressing and positioning teaching system 11, a resistance adjustment and execution palpation teaching system 12 and a massage implementation teaching system 13.

The core technology of this invention: The appearance of the system and its operating mechanism: The core technology of this invention is to establish a massage teaching system, which enables the masseur to judge the hardness of the muscles of the person being massaged through palpation, and adjust the massage force according to the muscle hardness to achieve the best massage effect.

The aforementioned compression position teaching system 11 uses a playback mechanism 113 having a screen 111 and storing corresponding compression position demonstrations and practice files 112 for different muscle parts to provide corresponding compression position demonstrations and practice files for different muscle parts. Practice to allow learners to master the correct pressing position, angle and other placement techniques; the pressing positioning teaching system 11 is calculated through positioning factors corresponding to different muscle parts, including but not limited to: (1) Massage position: select the Areas with tight or painful muscles are used as massage locations. (2) Massage angle: Select the massage angle of the muscle. etc., to assist learners in confirming that the muscles to be massaged are correctly positioned to ensure the effectiveness of the massage and to avoid massage injuries.

Please refer to the third and fourth figures, and take calf massage as an example to illustrate the positioning calculation results of the pressing and positioning teaching system as follows: (a) Place the calf of the person being massaged about 2cm (one finger width) away from the bed surface (as shown in the third figure). (b) The inner angle between the calf 3 of the person being massaged and the sole 31 of the foot is 60 degrees (as shown in the fourth figure). (c) According to the Achilles tendon position of the calf 3, grab the center position of the Achilles tendon as the massage address. (d) The massage angle is completed at an angle of 90 degrees perpendicular to the Achilles tendon.

The aforementioned resistance adjustment execution palpation teaching system 12 is connected to the pressure position teaching system 11 and obtains the muscle area with the maximum resistance value in a muscle block through a sensor 121 that can track biomechanical and kinematic data to define the most tense or painful part of the muscle; and includes but is not limited to an input interface provided by a website, APP, etc. or an interface (such as: API) that can track biomechanical and kinematic data. The sensor 121, the weight sensor, and the force sensor are connected to obtain the sensing values to input the factors such as the weight, muscle hardness, and massage force of the massager to calculate the appropriate pressure force for the massager, so as to provide the resistance between the massage force of the massager and the muscle hardness of the massager. The corresponding force adjustment method is explained and demonstrated to let the learners understand the judgment and diagnosis method of force changes, and the palpation operation is completed.

The resistance adjustment execution palpation teaching system 12 of the present invention is calculated based on various factors of the masseur and the person being massaged, including but not limited to: The weight of the masseur/the person being massaged: The difference in the weight of the masseur/the person being massaged will affect the resistance of the massage. The heavier the masseur is, the greater the resistance of the massage will be; the heavier the person being massaged is, the greater the resistance of the massage will be.

The hardness of the massaged person's muscles: Muscle hardness is the main factor affecting the resistance to massage; the harder the muscles, the greater the resistance to massage.

Massage force amplitude of the massager, etc.: The massage force amplitude of the massager refers to the difference between the maximum pressure and the minimum pressure that the massager can apply. The larger the massage force amplitude, the greater the resistance range that the massager can adjust. It provides the massager with the ability to judge the hardness of the muscles of the massaged person through the change of pressure resistance, and provides the massager with an adjustment strategy for the change of resistance, so as to accurately judge the hardness of the muscles and calculate the pressure force suitable for the massager.

The massage force calculation mechanism of the resistance adjustment execution palpation teaching system is as follows:

1. When massaging the muscles of the person being massaged, the masseur first applies massage force from light to heavy, and then gradually increases the pressure to palpate and detect the muscle hardness of the person being massaged.

2. When the pressing force reaches enough to make the massager feel the increased muscle resistance of the person being massaged (the muscles are harder), the degree of muscle tightness/relaxation can be identified.

3. Identify the resistance of the relaxed state of the muscle before it hardens, which is the appropriate muscle hardness of the person being massaged and the massage intensity of the massager at the beginning.

Similarly, the calf massage is used as an example to explain the massage force calculation of the pressure position teaching system: first, a standard value of 1kg, massage 1 unit time (such as: 1 unit time = 5 seconds), massage 1 unit area (such as: 1 unit area = ^9cm2 ) is set for the muscle hardness of the massagee and the massager's massage force as the calculation basis.

1. The massager uses the center of the Achilles tendon as the massage position and a massage angle of 90 degrees to perform resistance sensing to test the degree of muscle tightness/relaxation.

2. Resistance sensing will be divided into two results: if the muscle is relaxed, the muscle hardness of the massagee is lower than the standard value setting, and the system will adjust the massage force to 0.8kg, and the massage unit time and unit area are the same; if the muscle of the massagee is still relaxed according to the adjusted force, the muscle hardness of the massagee may be lower than the standard value setting, and the system will adjust the massage force to 0.7kg, and the massage unit time and unit area are the same; if the muscle of the massagee is not relaxed according to the adjusted force, the muscle hardness of the massagee is higher than the massage force of 0.7kg, and the system will adjust the massage force to 0.8kg, and the massage unit time and unit area are the same, then the best massage force can be determined to be 0.8kg, massage 1 unit time, and massage 1 unit area.

If the muscles of the massaged person are not relaxed, it means that the muscle hardness of the massaged person or the massage force value of the massager is/needs to be higher. The system calculates and adjusts the massage force of the massager to 1.2kg, and the massage unit time and unit area are the same; if the muscles of the massaged person are not relaxed according to the adjusted force, it means that the muscle hardness of the massaged person or the massage force of the massager needs to be higher, and then adjust it to 1.3kg, massage 1 unit time, massage 1 unit area, until the muscles of the massaged person are relaxed due to the adjusted force, then the best massage force can be determined to be 1.3kg, massage 1 unit time, massage 1 unit area.

The aforementioned massage implementation teaching system 13 is connected to the resistance adjustment execution palpation teaching system 12 and uses a sensor 121 that can track biomechanical and kinematic data to instantly obtain the resistance value changes of the muscle block before and after each massage to understand the effect of the massage. When the resistance value is finally consistent with the muscle block, it means that the massage is completed.

The massage implementation teaching system 13 calculates the corresponding massage technique based on the aforementioned muscle massage position, angle, initial strength of the massager, etc. The massage implementation teaching system 13 calculates the lowest tone value of the calf by including but not limited to a muscle hardness meter, which is the softest representative value of the muscle hardness of the massager, and sets a standard value (such as 1kg) for the muscle hardness of the massager and the massage strength of the massager, and a massage unit time (such as 1 unit time = 5 seconds) as the calculation basis.

Similarly, the calf massage is used as an example to illustrate the massage force calculation of the pressing and positioning teaching system. According to the two results of the previous resistance sensing: if the initial resistance sensing is relaxation, the massage force is reduced to 0.8kg, and the massage is maintained for 1 unit time and 1 unit area; if the aforementioned force, unit time, and massage unit can relax the muscles of the person being massaged, the massage force of 0.8kg, 1 unit time, and 1 unit area can be confirmed, and the massage is repeated until the muscle hardness of the person being massaged decreases, and then the massage force is adjusted to 0.7kg, 1 unit time, and 1 unit area. Similarly, the massage is repeated until the muscle hardness decreases and the massage force is adjusted down. The massage is performed until the massage area of the person being massaged is the same as the softest representative value of the person being massaged. The massage is completed.

If the initial resistance is not relaxed, the massage force will be increased to 1.1kg, and the massage will be maintained for 1 unit time and 1 unit area. If the aforementioned force, unit time, and massage unit can relax the muscles of the person being massaged, the massage force of 1.1kg, 1 unit time, and 1 unit area can be confirmed, and the massage will be repeated until the muscle hardness of the person being massaged decreases. Then the massage force will be lowered to 1.0kg, 1 unit time, and 1 unit area. The massage will be repeated until the massage area of the person being massaged is the same as the softest representative value of the person being massaged. The massage is completed.

The massage teaching system 1 of the present invention is connected to a massage teaching database 2, which is used to store, manage and process the information of the massage teaching system 1, including massage positioning, palpation, implementation and other calculation factors. The massage teaching database 2 can perform data query, storage, modification and other operations according to the request of the massage teaching system 1. The architecture of the massage teaching database 2 is not limited to relational or NoSQL. In the embodiment, the massage teaching database 2 can be deployed locally or using cloud options according to the needs.

Please refer to the second figure, the system architecture and operation mechanism of the system of the present invention are as follows. The present invention provides a massage teaching system operation mechanism method, the steps are: 1. Start S1; 2. Determine the muscle position to be massaged S2; 3. Execute the pressing and positioning teaching system S3; 4. Complete the pressing and positioning S4; 5. Execute the resistance adjustment and palpation teaching system S5; 6. Complete the resistance adjustment and palpation S6; 7. Execute the massage implementation teaching system S7; 8. Complete the massage implementation teaching S8; 9. Complete the learning S9.

According to the above process, help learners learn the following massage techniques:

1. Pressing position: Through the pressing position teaching system, corresponding pressing position demonstrations and exercises for different muscle parts are provided, allowing learners to master the correct pressing position, angle and other positioning techniques.

2. Resistance adjustment for palpation: Through the resistance adjustment for palpation teaching system, the resistance between the massage force applied by the masseur and the muscle hardness of the massaged person, and the corresponding force adjustment method are explained and demonstrated, so that learners can understand the judgment and adjustment methods of resistance changes and complete the palpation work.

3. Complete the massage implementation: Through the massage implementation teaching system, provide massage implementation explanations and exercises corresponding to muscle parts, pressing positions, and palpation results, so that learners can master the adjustment methods of massage strength and techniques.

Features and applications of this invention:

(I) Considering factors of both the masseur and the massage recipient to implement massage: The massage implementation teaching system 13 of the present invention incorporates the following factors into the calculation factors, including but not limited to: the purpose of massage for the massage recipient (such as: massage for health care exercise).

The center of gravity of the masseur's body (e.g., changes in center of gravity caused by the masseur's height, weight, and gender).

The posture and position of the massager (e.g. the posture and position of force applied due to the massager's height, weight, and gender).

The overall picture of the massage recipient's muscle tissue (e.g., muscle stiffness distribution).

The depth of the muscles being massaged (e.g., using surface tension to massage shallow muscles).

Planning of muscle relaxation time for the massage recipient (e.g., 0.8kg force per massage, 1 unit of time, 1 unit of area, i.e., relax the massage recipient's muscles for 30 seconds before continuing with the subsequent massage).

Once the calculation is completed, the stability of the massage will be ensured, and there will be no massage injuries during the massage process (such as the massager's force position slipping due to the massager's muscles being too stiff, causing massage injuries).

(II) Maximizing the palpation effect: The resistance adjustment palpation teaching system 12 of the present invention incorporates the following variables into the calculation factors, including but not limited to: muscle variables (such as: the hardness difference of different muscles themselves).

Environmental variables (e.g., differences in hardness caused by bones, ligaments, etc. contained in different muscles).

Unusual variables (e.g. other possible variables not included in muscle variables and environmental variables).

The palpation calculations for different muscles are used to adjust the corresponding palpation and massage to cope with the changes in the hardness of different muscles, making the massage more effective.

Comparison and advantages of this invention over previous cases: Compared with previous cases, this invention patent has the following advantages:

1. Massage palpation mechanism targeting muscles instead of acupoints: The known techniques and previous cases mostly use acupoint massage, which adjusts the massage force according to the depth of the acupoints. However, the depth of the acupoints is not a fixed value, but is affected by many factors, such as the body shape of the person being massaged, the muscle quality of the person being massaged, and the body posture of the person being massaged; therefore, the acupoint massage method of the previous case cannot accurately judge the depth of the muscle and then adjust the appropriate massage force. In this way, the masseur cannot know whether the force he applies during the massage is appropriate, and the person being massaged does not know whether this force is beneficial (e.g., if the person being massaged is very painful, is this beneficial or will it cause skin fibrosis). Therefore, the present invention can accurately judge the hardness and depth of the muscle by judging the change in resistance. The hardness of the muscle is the main factor affecting the resistance of the massage. Therefore, by judging the change in resistance, the hardness of the muscle can be accurately judged, and then the appropriate massage force can be adjusted, and the massage depth can be confirmed to avoid the possibility of massage injuries.

2. Quantify muscle hardness data: The known technology and previous cases mostly use pressure sensors to calculate muscle hardness based on the pressure. However, pressure sensors are easily affected by environmental factors and cannot accurately obtain muscle hardness data, such as: the thickness of the skin of the person being massaged; the elasticity of the muscles of the person being massaged; the angle of the massager's pressure; therefore, the pressure sensors of the previous cases cannot reliably judge the hardness of the muscles, so for learners, they do not have a benchmark to adjust the appropriate force of the massage, resulting in learning to spend longer time, and ultimately relying on experience to grasp the massage force. Therefore, the present invention can more reliably judge the hardness of the muscles through the analysis of muscle variables, environmental variables, and heterogeneous variables. Muscle variables include muscle structure, composition, function, etc.; environmental variables include the body shape, muscle mass, body posture, etc. of the person being massaged; and heterogeneous variables include the angle, force, time, etc. of the massager's massage. By analyzing these factors, the hardness of the muscle can be judged more accurately, so that learners can learn the strength difference faster and ensure the effectiveness of the massage.

Based on the differences in the above two points, we can clearly understand that the present invention has a higher technical level and practical value, and overcomes the shortcomings of the knowledge technology and previous cases, and also creates a simpler massage teaching process and establishes a system for the actual quantitative massage process.

Features of the invention: Feature 1: Resistance adjustment and palpation teaching system: The hardness of the muscles of the person being massaged is judged by the changes in resistance caused by the massager's pressing, and the massager is provided with an adjustment strategy for the changes in resistance, so as to accurately judge the hardness of the muscles and calculate the appropriate pressing force for the massager.

Feature 2: Massage Positioning Teaching System: By calculating the positioning factors corresponding to different muscle parts, including but not limited to: massage position, massage angle, etc., it helps students confirm that the muscles to be massaged are correctly positioned, ensuring the effectiveness of the massage and avoiding massage injuries.

Feature 3: Massage implementation teaching system: Based on the massage position, angle, initial strength of the massager and other results of the massaged person’s muscles, the corresponding massage techniques are calculated and completed.

Feature 4 Considering factors of both the masseur and the massagee to implement the massage: In the massage implementation teaching system, the following factors are included in the calculation factors, including but not limited to: the purpose of the massage, the overall picture of the muscle tissue, the muscle depth, the muscle relaxation time planning, and the calculation of the masseur's body center of gravity, posture and position, etc., to ensure the stability of the massage and prevent massage injuries during the massage process.

Features Maximize the effect of five palpation methods: The palpation teaching system is implemented during resistance adjustment, and the following variables are included in the calculation factors, including but not limited to: muscle variables, environmental variables, abnormal variables, etc. Palpation calculations for different muscles are used to adjust the corresponding palpation and massage to cope with the changes in the hardness of different muscles, making the massage more effective.

The massage teaching system 1 of the present invention includes the pressure-position teaching system 11, the resistance-adjustment-implementation-tactile-diagnosis teaching system 12 and the massage-implementation-teaching system 13. The massage teaching system 1 is also connected to the massage teaching database 2. The pressure-position teaching system 11 uses a playback mechanism 113 and the resistance-adjustment-implementation-tactile-diagnosis teaching system 12 uses the sensor 121 that can track mechanical and kinematic data to obtain the resistance value changes of the muscle block before and after each massage in real time to understand the massage implementation effect, and finally implement the resistance value. When the massage is consistent with the muscle block, it means that the massage is completed; and the massage skills are quantified, and the massage is performed by adjusting the resistance to perform palpation, to help the massager know the appropriate size of the current force, as well as the systematic scheme of the pressure placement and implementation method. The massage teaching database 2 stores, manages and processes the information of the massage teaching system 1; and due to the knowledge and technology and previous cases, the acupoint massage method is mostly used, which cannot accurately judge the depth of the muscle. This invention can solve this problem, and at the same time quantify the muscle hardness data, so that the massager has a benchmark force value, and then adjusts the massage force accordingly.

The inventor of this case has developed a massage teaching system to quantify massage skills. The main feature is to perform palpation through resistance adjustment to help the masseur know the appropriate force at the moment, as well as the systematized solution of the massage position and implementation method. Due to the known technology and previous cases, acupoint massage is mostly used, which cannot accurately judge the depth of the muscle. The invention can solve this problem and quantify the muscle hardness data at the same time, so that the masseur has a benchmark force value and can adjust the massage force accordingly. This invention is based on the hardness of the muscle tissue of the massagee and the massage force of the massager. It is constructed in a systematic way so that the masseur can confirm the muscle hardness of the massagee and implement a specific massage force and carry out the relevant massage process.

This invention establishes a feedback identification standard for muscle tissue and a massage force adjustment method to systematically complete a massage palpation system. Through the resistance change between the massage force and muscle hardness of the masseur, palpation is performed to grasp the appropriate massage force. Through this invention, teaching and support are provided to those who want to learn massage, so that the masseur can more effectively grasp the appropriate massage force and skills for different objects and muscle hardness, so that the masseur can effectively construct massage palpation, means and mechanisms that suit themselves, accelerate the muscle palpation learning process, logicalize the palpation process, and avoid the possibility of the person being massaged being injured by inappropriate massage force and technique.
