The earliest source of the word "chiropractic" is Ge Hong's "elbow backup emergency prescription?" The description in "Prescription for Treating Dead Abdominal Pain" is the earliest record in the current literature, which is that "the skin of the spine is lifted, and it is deeply painful, from the tail of the tortoise to the top, and it is even worse if it is not healed". This therapy has the functions of dredging meridians, regulating yin and yang, promoting the circulation of qi and blood, improving the function of zang-fu organs and enhancing the body's disease resistance. The effect is also outstanding in strengthening the spleen and stomach. Clinically, it is often used to treat malnutrition, dyspepsia, anorexia, diarrhea, vomiting, constipation, cough and asthma in children.
Chiropractic: Kneading acts on both sides of the human back and spine to achieve the purpose of treating diseases.
Chiropractic is a method to treat diseases by using the thumb and forefinger of both hands to act on both sides of the human back and spine by pinching. Because the spine is the pillar supporting the human body, the spinal nerves extending from the spinal cord dominate the life activities of internal organs. On the left and right sides of the back, the bladder meridian circulates in the sun, connecting the heart, lung, liver, gallbladder, intestine and other viscera.
There are back Shu points on the bladder meridian, and each Shu point corresponds to an organ.
Dr. Liu Jifeng, who holds a double doctor's degree in the Institute of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine and Medical Research, said that the bladder meridian is the longest the twelve meridians in human body, and the back Shu points on the bladder meridian (including: Shu Fei, Xinshu, Ganshu, Danshu, Pishu, Shenshu and Bladder meridian) correspond to one organ and have corresponding disease symptoms. If the rashes on these Shu points are pinched out separately, it means that there are corresponding symptoms. For example, if Shufei has an eruption point, it can be seen that there is a cough problem, or if there is cardiovascular disease, there will be an eruption point in Xinshu. As for bladder relaxation, there is a rash, which means that you may have the habit of holding your urine.
Chiropractic exercise can preserve health and activate human immunity.
In order to keep healthy and activate human immunity, chiropractic exercises are carried out. Two fingers are used to pinch the skin together, the thumb is twisted back and forth, and the index finger is pushed forward at the back, alternately moving forward while pinching. Starting from the Dazhui point on the back, grab it once, twice and three times, stop and dial, and boost the yang by the way; Then continue to pinch down and dial it again behind the navel, and you will find that some Shu points have been diagnosed, which usually takes 3 times. Then, the exhaust gas in the body should be eliminated. The method is to use the elbow to defend the middle point, let the waste gas go down, let the toxin go down, and finally pat the Mingmen point, that is, end the chiropractic work and collect the work by the way.
