How is cervical spondylosis formed? Needless to say, as we all know, working and studying for a long time, keeping a posture, especially playing mobile phones for a long time, has formed a blockage in the meridians. There are three yang meridians on the outside of our arms, among which the hand-sun small intestine meridian passes through our cervical vertebra. When there is cervical spondylosis, there will be blockage points in the small intestine meridians, so cervical spondylosis often affects the shoulders and arms, causing numbness. Inability of meridians and qi and blood will lead to insufficient supply of qi and blood in the head, and then dizziness and other symptoms will appear. Without the supply of qi and blood, the intervertebral discs between the cervical joints will be dry-ground in the state of ischemia, and the neck will be "clicked".
Fuguibao, who appeared at Dazhui point under the seventh cervical vertebra, caused hypertrophy and hyperplasia of surrounding soft tissues due to long-term incorrect posture of cervical vertebra. Hyperplasia feels soft at first, but this position is vulnerable to wind and cold, and rheumatism and cold accumulate over time and become slightly hard tendons; Further development, the vertebrae deviate from the normal position, the bones are deformed, and the rich bag becomes a bone bag, which feels hard, as if the seventh cervical vertebra is particularly large. The risk of causing cerebrovascular problems at this stage is relatively high, which will be more difficult to regulate than the previous two stages.
Usually, when we treat cervical spondylosis, we will choose to massage the cervical spine or add back bladder massage, but it can only relieve the pain, and some even hurt more than no treatment. In fact, in order to really solve the cervical vertebra problem, it is necessary to dredge the small intestine meridians, and moxibustion plus massage has a very good effect.
To dredge the small intestine meridians, the following acupoints must be selected:
Tianzong acupoint is located in the scapular area. People who don't usually have cervical spondylosis will also have a strong feeling of swelling and pain by pressing this acupoint, and this feeling will always spread to their fingers. If the meridians are blocked, the pain will only stay in the upper arm. We need to hold back the pain first, press it with our thumb for about 3 minutes, and press it on both shoulders. Tianzong point plays an important role in cervical spondylosis and scapulohumeral periarthritis. It is natural to press the A and B meridians of acupuncture, with heavy shoulders and painful elbows and arms.
When the arm droops naturally, the Jian Zhen point is located one inch above the head of the tattoo behind the armpit. Pressing and rubbing also hurts. You should not only press this acupoint, but also press the area of small intestine circulation, especially the outside of the big arm. When the meridians are blocked, there will be many induration. When there are lumps, try to knead them.
When the fist is clenched at Houxi point, the horizontal stripes on the back palm of the five-finger joint are red and white. This is an important acupuncture point for treating neck, shoulder and waist problems, but this acupuncture point is deep, and we can use the edge of the table to roll and press. This acupoint should last for more than 3 minutes, and we can also press here more after work.
After massage, the above three points should be moxibustion one by one, and it is best to hang moxibustion with moxa sticks, so it is not necessary to stick to the moxibustion time. The most important thing is to let the heat enter the body through moxibustion in one place. Moxibustion box can be used when no one is helping, and wooden boxes are the best. If someone helps, you can also moxibustion at three acupoints together, which will get twice the result with half the effort.
If the money bag at Dazhui point is also very serious, it is necessary to dredge Dazhui point. Seven Yang meridians of our body meet at Dazhui point: Du meridian, bladder meridian, large intestine, small intestine, triple energizer meridian, gallbladder meridian and stomach meridian, all of which pass through here. Dazhui point is impassable, and there will be many other problems besides cervical vertebrae.
For Fuguibao, you must rub it first and push it from top to bottom to soften Fuguibao before moxibustion. If you can scrape it first, the effect will be doubled. After that, you can hang moxibustion near Dazhui point and Fuguibao. If it doesn't help, you can use moxibustion box.
The most important thing to prevent and treat cervical spondylosis is in peacetime. Especially now, be sure to keep your neck warm and don't turn your back on the air conditioner. If the air conditioning temperature in the office is relatively low, you can choose a high-necked shirt, or a female friend can prepare a silk scarf to keep warm. Secondly, after work, learn from the "shaking your head" of the ancients when reading, and do cervical spine exercises for a few minutes every morning and afternoon to relax your neck and shoulders. Finally, choose a hard pillow when sleeping. A hard pillow can support the cervical spine and reduce the pressure on the cervical spine. It is not unreasonable for the ancients to use porcelain pillows.
If your neck has started to turn and click, you must start to pay attention. The cervical vertebra is so important, the cervical vertebra is good, and the head is good.
