Liver blood deficiency, tendon dystrophy, numbness of limbs, muscle contracture, and unfavorable joint flexion and extension.
Deficiency of kidney essence, non-existence of bone marrow, malnutrition of bone and weakness of bone.
In short, deficiency of liver and kidney, deficiency of essence and blood, malnutrition of bones and muscles, and obstruction of bones and muscles lead to pain.
Therefore, chronic osteodystrophy is most closely related to liver and kidney. Disharmony of the five internal organs and malnutrition of bones and muscles will cause pain, stiffness, swelling and even joint deformation.
Huangdi Neijing said: "In July and August, the liver qi fails, and the tendons cannot move." .
With the growth of age and the aging of the body, the liver and kidney become more and more deficient. liver blood deficiency leads to dystrophy, contracture or longitudinal relaxation of tendons and veins, which is easy to cause pain when working in trauma.
Similarly, kidney deficiency leads to deficiency of essence and qi, and bone loss can easily lead to fragile bones or abnormal hyperplasia of bone joints. Liver and kidney deficiency, malnutrition, weak bones and muscles, loss of nourishment and protection of bones, uncontrollable, careless activities, prone to joint pain and degeneration.
Therefore, tonifying liver and kidney, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis can make the body reach a healthy physiological state of "harmony between viscera, smooth flow of qi and blood, softening tendons and strengthening bones".
On this basis, tendon therapy is carried out to adjust the bones, restore the "balance between bones and muscles" and achieve the "steady state" of the structure.
This is the core concept of osteopathy.
Small needle knife (blade needle) plays a key role in tendon treatment and tendon adjustment
