Music is a good medicine for health preservation and treatment. The ancients knew for a long time that music was used to preserve health and cure diseases. As recorded in the Han Dynasty: "Take the pipe (musical instrument) as the seat ... If you want to help, the people who come are as calm as before." And the effect is very good. Zhang, a famous doctor in Song and Jin Dynasties, pointed out in "Confucianism, Family, Relationship, Volume III": "Those who have a good medical skill will never just play the flute with them." It means that playing Shengdi and other musical instruments is a good medicine. The influence of music on people's psychology can be directly and quickly manifested, and the influence on physiology (such as heart rate, blood pressure, blood flow, gastrointestinal peristalsis, etc.). ) it is also obvious. A lively and pleasant music will bring you into the music, erase your unhappiness and forget your troubles in happiness. At this time, the neurohumoral system in the body is also in the best state, so as to achieve the effect of harmonizing the inside and outside and coordinating the operation of qi and blood. In modern times, people pay more and more attention to music health. For example, more than 100 universities in the United States offer music therapy majors, and many large hospitals have music therapy departments. In our country, many hospitals and nursing homes play beautiful light music for patients to treat diseases such as hypertension, heart disease and asthma, and all of them have achieved good results. There are many ways to maintain health, and you can also take some health foods, such as spirulina, pine pollen and chitin. (1) The theoretical basis of music health preservation. China's music health care emphasizes the unity of form and spirit, and the dual cultivation of body and mind. The theoretical basis of China's traditional music health preservation is the theory of "five tones penetrating the five internal organs" in traditional Chinese medicine. The ancients divided music into five grades according to the sound level, namely "Palace, Shang, Horn, Sign and Feather". These five tones are connected with the five internal organs, namely, the uterus moves the spleen, the business moves the lung, the horn moves the liver, the sign moves the heart, and the feather moves the kidney, that is, "there are five tones in heaven, and people have five internal organs ... this person corresponds to heaven and earth". According to the classification method of the five elements, the ever-changing sound is organically related to the five internal organs of heart (fire), liver (wood), spleen (soil), lung (gold) and kidney (water). The connotation of music is centered on human emotions. The ancients classified the spiritual functions of the five tones: "Gong Yin is peaceful and strong, solemn and generous; Shang yin is strong and sad, sad and healthy; The horn sounds long and clear, honest and warm; The voice is smooth, elegant and supple; Feather pitch is clean, light and clear. " (2) The role of music in health preservation. Good music, its sound waves can cause harmonious vibration of human tissues and cells, and make human biological rhythms (such as pulse fluctuation, heart rate, respiratory rhythm, gastrointestinal peristalsis, and even muscle contraction and relaxation, etc.). ) can be well adjusted and stimulate people's potential. In addition, it is also a benign stimulus to the central and endocrine system, which can promote the neuroendocrine system to secrete healthy hormones, enzymes, neurotransmitters and other life-active substances, thus promoting human metabolism. China's traditional health theory holds that music can balance yin and yang. Excerpted from/news/2011623155242.htm reference/
