The answer is: yes.
Dog days, as the highest temperature season in a year, the scorching sun outside scorches the earth, making many people afraid to go out. Staying indoors for a long time and enjoying air conditioning will make the water in the body wet and sticky, and will also affect the activities of organs, so that the spleen and stomach can not transport water normally, and finally stay in the body, forming wet evil. At night, when the temperature drops, most people start to go out of their homes and go in and out of various places. During the day, they blow air conditioning indoors for a day, and then come out to eat greasy and cold food at night. When friends get together, drinking a lot will help damp evil and aggravate moisture. This makes the moisture in the whole human body accumulate heavier and heavier, which can't be discharged normally, resulting in a certain impact on life and work.
Traditional Chinese medicine emphasizes the treatment of winter diseases in summer, which stems from the theory of "nourishing yang in spring and summer and nourishing yin in autumn and winter" put forward in Huangdi Neijing. Dog days are the hottest time in summer. Neijing holds that man and nature are unified, and the yang of human body is consistent with that of nature. It was born in spring, flourished in summer, harvested in autumn and hidden in winter.
Summer is the most vigorous time of human yang, especially in dog days. At this time, the human meridians are full of qi and blood, and the pores are open, which is conducive to drug absorption. The dog days are also the hottest time of the year, and most diseases of human body are caused by cold. Using the characteristics of acupoints and external high temperature, the conditioning effect of some chronic diseases is better than other times. This is what we often say: dog days are the best season to get rid of cold and dampness.
So how to get rid of cold and dampness effectively, and what method can be the fastest?
Today, I recommend a magical method to dispel cold and dampness in dog days!
-Acupoints of zang-fu organs (dispelling cold and dampness)
"Zang-fu acupoint therapy, which originated from Taoism, is a technology used by Taoist ancestors for disease prevention, health care, health preservation and treatment. Its main function is to regulate qi, and achieve normal qi and blood operation of the human body by regulating qi and blood and essence of the human body. "
You should know that cold and dampness is a mixed state of body cold and dampness. Body cold is mostly due to yang deficiency, which leads to yang deficiency and cold coagulation, stagnation of qi and blood, and obstruction of meridians, so there will be a series of symptoms such as body chills, pain and soreness. Yang deficiency, especially spleen and stomach yang deficiency, can easily lead to fluid dysfunction in the body, dull skin, dull body, edema, obesity and sticky stools. Therefore, spleen and stomach weakness and yang deficiency are one of the most important factors leading to cold and dampness in the body.
Then, if you want to quickly discharge cold and dampness, you have to start with the spleen and stomach. Below I will teach you a few acupoints for regulating the spleen and stomach, and pressing them regularly with the method of viscera acupoints has a very good effect on regulating the spleen and stomach.
1, Shenque point
Functions and indications: strengthening the body, strengthening yang, relaxing bowels and regulating the stomach.

It has a good effect on patients with stomachache, constipation and diarrhea who are weak in spleen and stomach and can't resist cold. Moxibustion is also commonly used in clinic to warm the middle warmer, strengthen the spleen, dispel cold and stop diarrhea.
2. zhongwan point

3. Zusanli point

Massage technique: generally, thumb massage is the main method, lasting 3-5 minutes each time, 2-3 times a day. As the saying goes, "three miles in the belly", rubbing this point has a good effect on various digestive system diseases.
The above three acupoints are often rubbed, and long-term adherence can play a role in strengthening the spleen and nourishing the stomach, conditioning the spleen and stomach, eliminating cold and dampness, and strengthening the body.
However, massaging acupoints is not everything. If the symptoms are serious and cannot be relieved in time, you should go to the hospital as soon as possible to avoid delaying your illness.
Finally, let me summarize.
As the saying goes, all diseases are from dampness, and all diseases are from cold. It is very important to get rid of dampness and cold in dog days! But the premise of dispelling cold and dampness must be to regulate the spleen and stomach first. Moisture hurts the spleen and stomach the most. As long as the spleen and stomach are good, even if there is moisture, it can disappear naturally.
