Yongquan point in the middle depression of the foot is the starting point of the kidney meridian of foot shaoyin, which is called "the source of kidney" and "the congenital foundation" by Chinese medicine. However, with Yongquan point as the center, the points related to other organs are also distributed in the center of the foot, so the pathological reflection range is large. For example, organs related to acupoints of the left foot heart include celiac plexus, adrenal gland, kidney, heart, spleen, stomach and duodenum, and organs related to acupoints of the right foot heart include celiac plexus, gallbladder, adrenal gland, kidney, liver and stomach. Therefore, rubbing feet every day has been respected by health care workers in China in past dynasties and has become a long-standing health care method.
When kneading, you should take Yongquan point in the depression of the sole as the center, and knead and press it back and forth with your fingers or palms for about 100 times until the sole is red and hot, with moderate strength and speed. You can also use the instep of one foot to rub the instep of the other foot hard, and your feet rub each other in turn until the instep is hot. You can do 1 time every morning and evening, or 1 time before going to bed. If you soak your feet in hot water at night and rub them in a red and hot state, the effect will be better. Fitness needs long-term persistence, not overnight. (Reporter Ren Yong)
