The “Spiritual Pivot – Meridians” says: “The meridians are so able to decide life and death, deal with all diseases, regulate the real and the imaginary, and cannot be inaccessible.” The twelve meridians in the human body is first of all the pathway for the operation of qi and blood, and has a close relationship with human survival, the formation of disease, as well as human health, the healing of disease. If the circulation of qi and blood in the five organs, six bowels and twelve meridians is smooth, people will not get sick. We do not need to look at the meridians as mysterious. In a big city like Beijing or Shanghai, the twelve meridians are like the second ring road, the third ring road or the elevated road; in China as a whole, the twelve meridians are the highway; the snowstorm in the south in early 2008 interrupted the Beijing-Zhuhai highway and the Beijing-Guangzhou railroad, resulting in obstacles to the flow of people and materials nationwide, and people did not know when they could return to their hometowns and reunite with their relatives. The result was that people did not know when they could return to their hometowns and reunite with their loved ones. If we put this phenomenon on the human body, if the meridians have problems, it will inevitably cause abnormal functions in the body and thus endanger health. Nowadays, most people have such and such symptoms, but some go to the hospital for examination, but the instrument can not be found, often the doctor will give a “subhealth” conclusion, but is this the truth? I’m afraid that almost all major diseases are the result of the development of small diseases, diseases are in our inattention between the quiet accumulation of changes. Chinese medicine has an understanding that the meridians and blood flow smoothly, people will not get sick; meridians blocked, the blood is not smooth, can not be pain, stasis, then disease. That is not a professional doctor, how can we determine whether their own meridians are smooth? You can judge according to the following symptoms. These symptoms may not be “symptoms” to you, but our care for our body starts with “examination of microscopic illnesses”. The “examination” is to find the truth through the traces, “micro-illness” is a small disease, a small disease. Cold】 When the meridians are not working, some parts of the body will be cold, for example, the most common are cold limbs, cold abdomen, cold head, or a more serious feeling of cold. Coldness in these areas is often a sign that the meridians are not working. Since human body temperature is determined by the normal flow of qi and blood, the body temperature will be normal only if the qi and blood are strong and circulate normally. If the body is cold, the meridians may not be working and the Qi and blood may not be able to reach the area. In some people who are partially paralyzed after a stroke, the meridians are not working, and the healthy part and the unhealthy part will have a normal body temperature on one side and a cold one on the other. By extension, sweating in healthy and unhealthy areas may also be different, with one side sweating normally and the other side not sweating. Heat] When the meridians are not working, some parts of the body will become hot and dry again. This is because the heat cannot be dispersed through normal channels. In addition to the redness, swelling, heat and pain caused by external evil associated with the blockage of the meridian where the fever is located, individual fever may also come from the related meridian. Qi and blood run through the body in cycles, if this path is not open, it will look for breakthroughs from neighboring meridians, the first easy to affect the meridians that exist in the relationship between the table and the mother, so that the meridian fever. For example, if the head is hot, it is not necessarily a problem of the bladder meridian, but may also be caused by a lack of qi and blood in the kidney meridian, which is cognate to it. In addition to the hot and cold sensation, the effect of meridian blockage on the skin surface can also manifest as problems such as enlarged skin pores and blocked hair follicles. The blood is not to, the pores of the garbage can not be discharged, the pores plugged, hair follicles naturally grow bad, which is a lot of girls concerned about acne, blackheads, large pores, if the meridian does not work, rub how much cosmetics can not solve the problem at all. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not in a position to get a good deal on a lot of things. Last year, we talked about a small action to prevent heart disease, and the reason is the same. Take the Heart meridian for example, when you raise your arm in a salute position, most people over 40 have loose muscles hanging down in the upper arm. The first thing you need to do is to use your thumb and forefinger to knead this “detached” muscle from the armpit towards the elbow joint, and it will feel like pinching cotton wool, and there are lumps of fat particles when you rub your fingers, and the pain is unbearable with a little force. The examination report does not reveal any problems. Numbness] The pain and sorrow caused by the blockage of the meridians further develops into numbness or wood. For example, we sit cross-legged for too long, the lower extremities of blood, pain; then, the meridians are blocked, blood is completely blocked, the legs will be numb. Only by transforming the sitting posture, qi and blood flow can restore perception. The actual fact is that you can find a lot of people who are not able to get a good deal on this. The actual fact is that you will be able to get a lot more than just a few of the most popular and popular items. After strenuous exercise, such as fast sprinting, the body will be sore or weak somewhere, this is because sprinting requires more qi and blood supply than the normal body qi and blood supply limits, resulting in the qi and blood supply is not up and sore. If a part of the body is sore for no reason, or a little movement is also sore, it means that the part of the meridian is not smooth, the blood supply slowed down. At this time, patting and massaging the meridian where it is located may reveal potential pain, swelling, swelling and other symptoms of meridian blockage. Swelling】 Meridian blockage can be tangible, which is swelling, often caused by blood stasis. To reduce swelling, you need to activate the blood and remove stasis, which can be regulated by scraping or cupping. The actual “Gua Sha” is actually the blood stasis in the meridian (of course we don’t force how much and how deep the Gua Sha must be scraped out). You can also work with acupressure points, such as the blood sea point on the inside of the knee. Simple acupuncture point method: bend the knee and press the left palm against the upper edge of the patella of the right knee. 2-5 fingers point upward and straighten. The thumb is placed at about 45 degrees, diagonally, with the tip of the thumb under the point. The word “blood” refers to the blood of the spleen, and “sea” refers to the blood of the spleen meridian, which is as large as a sea of qi and blood. The point is located in the spleen meridian, the spleen is the main blood, with the blood is not chaotic line, not the efficacy of siltation, often pressed to promote the circulation of blood, to help eliminate bruises and swellings therapeutic effect. If there is pain when massaging, pay attention to often massage to unblock. Of course, the meridian can also be invisible, which is bloated, mostly caused by qi stagnation. Bloating is usually a “vortex of qi” when the meridians are not running smoothly and a part of the body is swollen. So, if we can understand some basic meridian knowledge, we can also collect meridian signals to understand the body’s condition. The role of meridians is not only in the diagnosis and treatment of diseases, but more importantly, prevention.
