吐鲁番迎来沙疗黄金期
据央视财经报道,眼下,高温天气使得吐鲁番当地的沙疗进入了旺季。

不少体验过沙疗的网友,纷纷在社交媒体分享自己的新疆沙疗体验。
也有不少网友留言表示好奇。

来自浙江的游客说:“买票进去自己找个坑埋就行,流程很简单……沙疗完全身都是沙子,脏兮兮的,但整个人感觉很轻松。”
另一位来自广州的游客告诉记者,自己计划完成7天一个疗程的治疗,这也是她的首次尝试。“听说沙疗对寒湿比较好,正好我的寒湿问题比较严重。”
这位游客告诉记者,沙疗的体验并不算舒适:“夏季吐鲁番温度很高,这里的风都是烫的,埋完还不能洗澡、吹空调,有点痛苦。”而关于沙疗是否真的有效果,游客表示,体验了一次暂时还看不出来。
沙疗究竟是什么?真能“祛湿”?

Sand therapy is a unique treatment in Turpan, utilizing the region's abundant sunshine and climatic conditions. By burying the affected body parts in the sand under the scorching sun, a combination of sunlight, dry heat, pressure, and magnetic force is used to alleviate pain from rheumatoid arthritis and cervical spondylosis.
专家提醒:并非人人都适宜
While sand therapy offers numerous benefits for physical and mental healing, there are precautions to consider. It is essential to consult with professionals before undergoing the therapy, as it may not be suitable for everyone.
湖南中医药大学第一附属医院主任医师谭超接受媒体采访时强调,沙疗的理想温度通常不超过60℃,“地表温度高达81℃的环境偏极端,过高的温度可能导致中暑,甚至发生热射病”。
