風靡日本的成人裹布療法——讓你體驗回到娘胎的舒適感覺
當你知道一團團白布里裹著的都是活人之后，你大概會以為這是惡作劇或者恐怖片，但其實這是日本時興的一種新療法，通過用透氣布包裹人體來模擬胎兒在子宮中的形態，據說這能矯正身姿、緩解身體僵硬。大和民族的創意總是讓人匪夷所思。
Otona Maki, or ‘adult wrapping’, is a Japanese therapeutic method of correcting posture and alleviating body stiffness by wrapping the human body in a large piece of cloth that emulates the comfortable feel of a mother’s womb.
Otona Maki又稱“成人裹布法”，是正在日本流行的一種矯正身姿、緩解身體僵硬的療法。其訣竅在于，用一大塊布把人體包裹起來，以模仿出胎兒在子宮的舒適感覺。
Well-known for their long work hours, many Japanese people develop posture problems and body stiffness. For a long time, getting massages and stretching have been the most popular ways of dealing with these issues, but now someone claims to have come up with an even better solution. Otona Maki is a new and intriguing way of improving posture and making your body more flexible than ever, while at the same time helping practitioners relax by recreating the comfortable feel of a mother’s womb.
日本人是出了名的工作狂，但長時間工作卻導致許多民眾姿勢不良以及身體僵硬。長期以來，按摩和拉伸都是緩解病癥的不二之選，但現在卻有人想出了更好的解決辦法。新出爐的成人裹布法看似新奇卻也有奇效，它既能矯正姿勢、提高身體柔韌性，也能通過營造胎兒在子宮里的舒適感覺來幫助練習者放松身體。
Otona Maki is not a mainstream practice in Japan, but after recently being featured on a popular television program, more and more people are talking about it and giving it a try. The idea behind this bizarre looking therapeutic practice is to tightly wrap the human body (in various poses) in a large piece of breathable cloth for about 15 – 20 minutes per session. Babies are often wrapped the same way to correct minor physical defects and give them a feeling of security, and otona maki aims to do the same for adults.
成人裹布法在日本并非主流療法，但日前經某熱門電視節目報道后，引來了眾多民眾的熱議和嘗試。這一看似奇葩的理療方法是用一塊巨大的透氣布 I’ll be the first to admit that it looks pretty weird, but according to Yayoi Katayama of Japanese blog Vienna-Juku, there are real benefits to practicing adult wrapping. As we all know, babies and young children have very flexible spines, but as we grow up, most of us lose that flexibility. After going through several sessions with your body fixed in a certain position for a short amount of time, you can regain that natural flexibility and improve posture. Yayoi calls the practice a way to reset your body, and claims that after taking part in a session, she also felt relaxed and rejuvenated.
日本博客網站Vienna-Juku上的一名博主Yayoi Katayama說，她覺得這個療法看起來十分奇怪，但不得不承認確實有實際效果。眾所周知，嬰幼兒的脊髓十分柔韌，但隨著我們慢慢長大，大部分人都喪失了這種靈活性。當有過幾次短時間內以固定姿勢被包裹起來的體驗后，你就能找回那種天生的柔韌性，形體也能得到矯正。Yayoi將這種療法稱作“重置人體”的一種方式，聲稱在體驗了一次治療之后，自己感到全身放松，恢復了活力。
But despite Japan’s appetite for the bizarre, otona maki seems a bit too weird even for them. According to Kotaku, there is a lot of skepticism regarding the practice, at least on Japanese social media, with people comparing it to a mummification technique, or making references to Japanese horror films.
即便日本是個品味奇特的國家，但成人裹布法在他們眼里也稍顯奇葩。據日本著名游戲網站Kotaku稱，社會上如今出現了許多對這種療法的質疑聲，尤其在日本社交媒體上，人們戲謔地將其比作木乃伊制作法，或與日本恐怖電影相提并論。
Otona Maki was apparently developed by Professor Nobuko Watanabe, known for creating the Toco Chan maternity belt, a very popular product in Japan. A 30-minute adult wrapping session costs 3240 yen ($28), while 50 minutes inside the cloth womb costs 6480 ($56).
