In one embodiment, the massage component is moved to the acupuncture points according to the distance difference between the acupuncture points and the massage component, so as to realize the adjustment and correction of the distance between the massage component and the acupuncture points, thereby improving the massage experience of the user.


In one embodiment, the method further includes:


Displaying the acupuncture point distribution image and the massage device image;


Displaying the positions of the acupuncture points of the acupuncture point distribution image;


Displaying the position of the massage component; and


Receiving an operation command to move the massage component to the acupuncture points.

In one embodiment, controlling the massage component to massage the determined at least one acupuncture point includes:


Determining at least one target massage component of the massage components that is opposite to the acupuncture point to be massaged;


Receiving a second instruction, the second instruction including parameters of the target massage component;


Adjusting the parameter of the target massage component according to the second instruction; and


Massaging the determined at least one acupuncture point according to the parameters of the target massage component.


Specifically, the parameters of the target massage component may include, but are not limited to, massage strength, massage mode, massage location, and massage environment.


In one embodiment, the massage device includes a display interface. The display interface includes at least massage component options and parameter setting options. The massage component options are for the user to select the target massage component. The parameter setting options are for the user to set the massage strength, massage mode, massage location, and massage environment.


For example, the point to be massaged may be the Dazhui point. The massage device can determine the target massage component that is opposite to the Dazhui point and receive the second instruction. The second instruction may be a touch command for determining the strength and/or method of the target massage component. The strength and/or method of the target massage component is adjusted according to the second touch instruction.


In summary, the acupuncture points of different users are determined according to the three-dimensional parameter data of the user, so that the massage components are precisely aligned with the acupuncture points of the different users. Furthermore, the acupuncture points and the massage parameters are selected according to the user's instructions, which can improve the accuracy of massaging the acupuncture points and improve the effect of massage.
