Tendons are all over the body, the connection drives the movement of bones and joints, people will be hunched over in old age, hands, feet “tendon bumps”, press on the vague pain, this is called tendon knots in Chinese medicine. There is a more intuitive phenomenon is that when you are young 1m8, to old only 1m7, “the longer the more back”, this is a proprietary Chinese medicine saying: tendon shrinkage. Tendon shrinkage is the expansion range is reduced, the original can pull a meter of tendon now can only be pulled to half a meter. From a pathological point of view, the “tendons” of tendon shrinkage have fibrosis, adhesions, scar formation, thickening, swelling, and the formation of what the people call “tendon bumps”. These “tendon bumps” are known as tendon knots. “There are thousands of knots in the body, and these thousands of knots are the knots in our body. If you touch the area with tendon knots, you will feel tension, stiffness, spasm, swelling, and you will feel thickening or even “tendon bumps”, and the pressure pain is obvious; that is why it is said that “an inch of tendon growth prolongs your life by ten years”: if the tendons do not shrink or shrink less, the blood vessels will be smooth. Where do tendons come from? The accumulation of toxins in the skin of the human body, the tendons tend to accumulate on the side of the nose, forehead, under the eyes, and on the inflamed cells, mainly due to staying up late, thinking, worrying and cell death. What are the dangers of hamstring knots? The meridians are all over the body, running through the whole body, and are the pathways for the flow of qi and blood. Once the meridians are blocked, the Qi and blood do not run smoothly and will form stagnation! And the skin muscles do not get sufficient nutrition will not luster! Even lead to various skin lesions: long acne (acne), long freckles, long scar, etc., in the muscle is the formation of tumors, phlegm nucleus, in the blood vessels is the formation of floating complexes, varicose veins, venous tumors and other phenomena is like a gutter of water does not work, can not flow smoothly or slow flow, the bottom must have deposited a lot of “garbage” only to these deep The only way to show the effect is to clean out these deep “garbage”! The tendons and veins are open, blood vessels are open, the first feeling is to breathe smoothly, the legs and feet that blocked the feeling of blocking no more! Chinese medicine talks about the tendons and veins only in the body, and does not extend to the five organs, but why say the tendons and veins, the five organs will be smooth? This is because if there is a problem with the five organs, it will first show up in the five senses, so the function of the five organs can also be judged through the five senses, and the problems of the five organs can also be relieved by stretching the tendons through the five senses. Many of the 12 meridians pass through the head and face, and the head and face can also stretch tendons to relieve diseases of the internal organs. Let’s learn a few simple ways to pass through the tendons! I believe that those who have attended the Kung Fu practice class of Buddha Medical Hall are not unfamiliar with some of the following small gong methods, which have been taught by the teacher many times in the practice class! 1, the five organs of stretching the ears for the kidneys Kidney essence is sufficient to hear smart, kidney essence deficiency is two ears deaf. The changes in ear hearing and the degree of fullness and moistness of the auricle can generally infer the strength and weakness of the kidney energy. We stretch the tendons in the ears can play a role in fixing the kidneys and regulating the heart, traffic heart and kidneys. 2, the five organs stretching liver in the eyes liver open orifice in the eyes, that is, the liver essence in the eyes, the liver meridian and up to the eye system, and the purpose of vision, depending on the liver blood moisten. There are two main movements for eye stretching: pointing Fengchi and making a fist to anger the eyes. These two actions can help the eyes become bright, prevent some eye diseases, but also help to stop dizziness. 3, five organs stretching the tongue to raise five organs nourish the liver and gallbladder, nourish the heart and stomach heart Qi deficiency is a problem that many people have. For example: someone in daily life often missteps with the mouth, which can also indicate health problems, which is a deficiency of heart qi. The tongue follows disobedience, mispronunciation, and sometimes biting the tongue without thinking, which is not because of craving for meat, but a lack of heart qi, and in serious cases, problems in thinking expression. Through the stretching action of the mouth and lips, we can make our mouths sharper, and at the same time play a nourishing role for the liver, gallbladder, heart and stomach. Neck stretching, hands do not go numb! Hand numbness is a particularly common problem among the elderly, and hand numbness and tendon knots do have a certain relationship. We say that there are two common causes of hand numbness, one is upper limb nerve entrapment, and one is cervical spondylosis, which is more common. The real cause of early cervical spondylosis should be cervical muscle strain and spasm, long-term failure to relieve, the formation of “tendon knots”, compression of the blood vessels, nerves, and thus cause joint instability. Brachial plexus pulling One person holds the patient’s side head, one hand holds the patient’s side upper limb and abducts it by 90°, both hands push and pull in the opposite direction at the same time, and those with radiating pain or numbness aggravation can be initially diagnosed as cervical spondylosis. When it is determined that the hand numbness is caused by cervical spondylosis, the tendon nodes can be searched for in the root of the neck and the upper corner of the scapula. In addition to the local tendon nodes, you can also do the following neck stretching method. Hold your neck and tilt your head. Hold your neck and tilt your head, this action is best for a group of 30 seconds, each time according to their ability to properly lengthen the time, of course, if there is serious discomfort, may suggest that your cervical spine has a major problem, not through daily training health care, to seek medical attention. The third reason for hand numbness: a precursor to stroke The difference is that stroke can also be hand numbness, stroke hand numbness is the entire hand is numb, and will not appear alone this one symptom. You should pay attention to the word “no use” in the picture above, which means “no use”. That is, our hands are not good, numbness and weakness at the same time, even a pen can not pick up, this is one of the most significant characteristics of stroke hand numbness. 1, back stretching, dispersing cold You can try “rubbing the tree” exercise, rubbing the tree and we want to talk about the tendon knot, is very related. Each muscle, each ligament has a fixed direction, due to cold, trauma, long-term bad posture, which forms what we call “tendon knots”, the back is most easily ignored by cold, so the back has become our main area of cold. You can feel for yourself in the lateral position of the scapula, whether there is stiff, rope-like tissue, which is your back tendon knot. 2, hold elbows and shoulders This action is suitable for indoor, as shown in the picture, please note that the two hands try to tighten the two arms inward, to stretch the back tendons purpose. 3.Totian turn waist This posture can help knead the knots in the three horizontal protruding tendons of the waist. The four fingers point forward, thumbs backward, hands crossed waist, thumb location is one of the most common waist three horizontal protruding tendons knot, have this tendon knot can often practice this action. Leg stretches, the knee does not hurt! People old first old legs, legs tendon knot will cause a lot of problems, we are walking normally or in the stairs, suddenly feel the knee joint can not eat strength, leg weakness, almost kneeling, many internal diseases and leg tendon knot related. We can use our fingers to rub the inner and outer knee eyes in two locations, we will find that there is a gurgling sensation under the hands, the knee joint is overstretched or painful after exertion, this is the knee tendon knot. If your knee is sunken, your knee is fine. If your knee bulges and you feel a hard knot and it hurts when you press it, your knee is degenerating more. The quadriceps is the source of power to extend the knee joint, the quadriceps is not strong enough, the patella on both sides of the tendon knot, then it is not playing soft leg, the joint stiffness to play not bend hard. So that the practice of this area, the knee does not hurt naturally. To relieve the knee tendon knot, we can do the following 3 movements: 1, inward and outward Sit in a chair, hands together palm relative to each other between the legs, legs as far as possible inward clenching, hands as far as possible outward, continued confrontation for 10 seconds; then hands on the outside of the thighs, legs outward, hands inward continued confrontation for 10 seconds, repeat 20 times. 2, the feet compete for force sitting position, the heels crossed, the lower leg forward, the upper leg down, mutual struggle to persist for 10 seconds, alternating legs repeat 20 times. 3, point press to disperse tendons and knots can go to a professional beauty salon to let the beautician help you press and rub the four positions of the inner and outer knee eyes, you will find that there is a feeling of grunts and grunts under the hands, which is in the dispersion of tendons and knots!
