当你知道一团团白布里裹着的都是活人之后,你大概会以为这是恶作剧或者恐怖片,但其实这是日本时兴的一种新疗法,通过用透气布包裹人体来模拟胎儿在子宫中的形态,据说这能矫正身姿、缓解身体僵硬。大和民族的创意总是让人匪夷所思。

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又称“成人裹布法”,是正在日本流行的一种矫正身姿、缓解身体僵硬的疗法。其诀窍在于,用一大块布把人体包裹起来,以模仿出胎儿在子宫的舒适感觉。

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,但长时间工作却导致许多民众姿势不良以及身体僵硬。长期以来,按摩和拉伸都是缓解病症的不二之选,但现在却有人想出了更好的解决办法。新出炉的成人裹布法看似新奇却也有奇效,它既能矫正姿势、提高身体柔韧性,也能通过营造胎儿在子宫里的舒适感觉来帮助练习者放松身体。

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疗法,但日前经某热门电视节目报道后,引来了众多民众的热议和尝试。这一看似奇葩的理疗方法是用一块巨大的透气布(以多种姿势)将人体紧紧包裹,每次持续15-20分钟。人们通常会用同样的方法将婴儿包裹起来,以矫正轻微身体缺陷,并为其营造一种安全感。裹布法也如法炮制,以期给成年人带来同样效果。

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.
日本博客网站Vienna-Juku上的一名博主Yayoi Katayama说,她觉得这个疗法看起来十分奇怪,但不得不承认确实有实际效果。众所周知,婴幼儿的脊髓十分柔韧,但随着我们慢慢长大,大部分人都丧失了这种灵活性。当有过几次短时间内以固定姿势被包裹起来的体验后,你就能找回那种天生的柔韧性,形体也能得到矫正。Yayoi将这种疗法称作“重置人体”的一种方式,声称在体验了一次治疗之后,自己感到全身放松,恢复了活力。

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.
即便日本是个品味奇特的国家,但成人裹布法在他们眼里也稍显奇葩。据日本著名游戏网站Kotaku称,社会上如今出现了许多对这种疗法的质疑声,尤其在日本社交媒体上,人们戏谑地将其比作木乃伊制作法,或与日本恐怖电影相提并论。

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).
成人裹布法由Nobuko Watanabe教授开创,在日本非常流行的孕妇骨盆矫正带(Toco Chan maternity belt)正是出自他手。30分钟一次的成人裹布疗程售价为3240日元(28美元),50分钟一次的布子宫体验疗程为6380日元(56美元)。
