Nevertheless, she still hopes to use Chinese medicine to help her solve the current problem: this is because of the failure of love and job hunting (presumably college students). She has been in a bad mood for half a year, depressed, unable to eat, chest tightness and poor sleep quality at night. She thinks there will be a big problem if this goes on.
Three acupoints, namely Hanzhong, Neiguan and Zusanli.
Zhongshan point is just at the middle line of our chest, the midpoint of the connecting line between the two nipples.
Neiguan points, one on the left and one on the right, are on the palm of forearm and two inches above the wrist transverse stripes. How long is two inches? The width of your three fingers is basically two inches.
Zusanli is easy to find. Knees are bent at right angles, and the four horizontal fingers (index finger, middle finger, ring finger and little finger) are measured down from the knees, that is, the position of 3 inches, which is Zusanli. There is one around Zusanli.
How to use these three acupoints? The most orthodox practice is acupuncture. Ordinary people, can't acupuncture, how to do? Press with your fingers. Knead each point clockwise for 200 times from Zhongshan point, once in the morning, once in the middle and once in the evening. Especially before going to bed at night, you must operate it once. If you persist for a long time, you will see certain results.
Using this group of acupoints, there is also a medical record published in the magazine Beijing Traditional Chinese Medicine. The physician was the predecessor of Beijing College of Traditional Chinese Medicine at that time. The patient, a 42-year-old female, suffered from unsatisfactory work, listlessness and poor diet, accompanied by chest tightness, hypochondriac pain, abdominal distension, belching, poor sleep and fatigue. The tongue is red, the fur is thin and yellow, and the pulse is thin. At that time, these three acupoints were used to adjust the treatment through acupuncture, and six courses of treatment were effective.
Let me explain the truth here.
Among them, Hanzhong point is Qi Hui point among the eight points in human body. Chinese medicine will use Zhongshan point in the treatment of all diseases caused by poor qi movement. It is the main switch for regulating gas. Lung qi, stomach qi, liver qi and heart qi can be adjusted.
Among them, Neiguan point belongs to the pericardium meridian of hand jueyin, which has a good effect of calming psychological qi. Traditional Chinese medicine often uses it to treat angina pectoris, depression syndrome and hysteria. Especially in the treatment of emotional depression caused by liver depression and qi stagnation, Neiguan point is almost the only point. Maybe you will wonder, how do the acupoints on the pericardium meridian soothe the liver and regulate qi? The reason is that the liver is the mother organ and the heart is the child organ. The disorder of liver-qi can be solved by regulating viscera. "In fact, I have a son" is the truth.
Zusanli, as we all know, has the effect of strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach. People with liver depression and qi stagnation often suffer from spleen soil. Therefore, by stimulating Zusanli, we can strengthen the spleen and prevent liver depression from being further damaged. In addition, you can also nourish the liver by strengthening the spleen and soil. Only when the spleen and stomach are full of biochemical qi and blood can the liver be further nourished. Soothing liver and soft strips.
In a word, the coordination of these three acupoints can regulate a series of problems caused by long-term mental unhappiness and depression, such as chest tightness, insomnia, dreaminess, loose stool, loss of appetite, hypochondriac pain, abdominal distension, belching, palpitation and fatigue. This is an effective way of keeping in good health for contemporary people who live in a fast pace.
Of course, as I said, it is best to stimulate these three points through acupuncture. If acupuncture is used to stimulate, it will be effective, but it must be done slowly. This requires us to form a habit and stick to it for a long time. When pressing, don't feel pain, and do it with the greatest strength you can bear. At the same time, we should actively adjust our mentality and lifestyle.
Well, that's it, that's all I have to say. I hope this little knowledge can help you improve your mood and adjust your body.
