Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the main causes of cardiovascular diseases are heart-kidney disharmony, heart-lung qi stagnation, deficiency of both heart and spleen, stagnation of heart and liver, etc. Drinking water can make you feel relaxed and happy, phlegm can make you confused, blood stasis can block the blood vessels of the heart or pericardium, and the vitality of the heart is damaged and it cannot play its due role.
The heart governs the blood, and the heart hides the mind. The center of the five elements belongs to fire, the heart has fire, and the candle shines on everything; The heart is yang, and yang governs the gods. Huangdi Neijing says that the heart is the monarch and the god is outside. Therefore, the heart is the master of internal organs and life. When the heart itself becomes ill, there are eight symptoms: jumping, fear, fatigue, confusion, panic, boredom, obstruction and pain. Mental illness caused by anxiety with seven emotions: joy, anger, worry, thinking, sadness, fear and shock.
Traditional Chinese medicine examination has great advantages for early diagnosis of heart disease. Chinese medicine believes that the heart, small intestine, pulse, face and tongue constitute the heart system, not just the heart organs. You can observe the root of the nose. According to facial holography, the mountain root between the eyes corresponds to the heart. Therefore, if there are stripes at the root of the mountain, it means that there are problems with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and its symptoms are mostly manifested as hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis and coronary heart disease.
In addition to the horizontal stripes of the mountain roots between the eyes on the face, there are several other criteria for the diagnosis of heart disease in Chinese medicine: 1) The shape of the coronary groove is found in the earlobe; 2) There are obvious blue veins or purple-black around Shenmen and Neiguan points in the wrist transverse stripes; 3) black or purple veins appear under the tongue; 4) Lips or nails are bluish purple. At the same time, with pulse diagnosis, the pulse rate is uneven, and sometimes there will be a stopped pulse.
Traditional Chinese medicine mainly uses salvia miltiorrhiza and notoginseng to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
Synchronous treatment of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases;
1) In drug treatment, we should pay attention to controlling blood lipid, cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar at normal indexes. Through the dialectical treatment of qi stagnation, cold coagulation, blood stasis and phlegm coagulation in heart disease, we should adopt different treatment methods such as activating qi, warming meridians, promoting blood circulation and resolving phlegm to achieve the goal of radical cure, thus fundamentally restoring the important functions of heart and brain.
2) Exercise therapy is mainly aerobic exercise, such as walking. Walking can well dissipate the persistence of emotions through changes in the external environment. Patients with cardiac encephalopathy do not advocate strenuous exercise.
The famous saying in Huangdi Neijing: "Quiet and nothingness, obey the true qi, keep the spirit inside, and be safe from illness?" Quiet and refreshing, optimistic and happy. Traditional Chinese medicine is essential to nourish the heart, and it is also a good method to treat contemporary psychological diseases.
3) Dietotherapy Dietotherapy is to make cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases metabolize in a healthy and orderly way. The diet should be thick and thin: eat less and thick, less sugar and less salt, don't drink too much, don't overeat greasy, cold, fried and barbecue; The taste is light, that is, the diet is light, and each meal can be seven points full. In short, diet should pay attention to six words, low fat and high fiber.
Conditioning the heart, first, regulating emotions and maintaining a happy mood, because qi stagnation will make the heart and brain stagnate and blood stasis; Second, keep a good sleep quality, because staying up late and overworking are easy to premature aging; Third, medicine and food are homologous, and the combination of diet and medicine is better.
Heart disease can also play a good role through acupuncture and acupoint massage.
The main acupoints include Neiguan, Zhongshan and Xinshu. The heart is the leader of the human body. If the regulating function of the heart declines, life will be out of control. The heart governs the blood vessels of the human body, and the blood vessels are weak due to insufficient heart qi, and the body is prone to aging if it is not nourished; The heart also dominates the mental activities of the human body. If the mind is out of balance, it will lead to mental decline and easily lead to physical decline. Lack of nutrition in the heart will not only cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but also lead to premature aging.
The heart controls people's emotions. Therefore, when the mind is relaxed, the viscera will adjust themselves, the pulse will be smooth, and the qi and blood will balance themselves. The body will gradually return to balance from disorder and imbalance, naturally refreshed, healthy and happy.
