Meridian can strengthen the body and is a simple and convenient method. In daily life, we can prevent and treat diseases through acupoints. Here's how to introduce it to you, I hope it will be useful to you!

Function of meridians

Meridian is one of the cores of the basic theory of TCM and the soul of TCM. Meridian is the channel through which qi and blood are executed in the body, which can transport the nutrients needed by the tissues and organs of the body, so that the viscera and organs can be nourished, the joints can be smooth and the body is healthy. Only when the meridians are unobstructed can qi and blood flow unimpeded and continuously throughout the body. Therefore, Huangdi Neijing clearly points out that meridians have the functions of "nourishing yin and yang, promoting blood circulation to dissipate blood stasis, living and dying, and treating all diseases", and they are indispensable.

However, the human body feels the evil spirits of "wind, cold, summer, dampness, dryness and fire", or is injured by emotions such as "sadness and fear of shock", or improper diet and long-term strain will lead to blockage of meridians. As the saying goes, the obstruction of meridians will not only cause various pains, but also cause damage to its corresponding viscera, leading to various internal diseases.

The benefits of massage

Huangdi Neijing said: "The meridians are blocked, the disease is born in inhumanity, and the treatment is * * *", which shows that * * * has the function of dredging meridians. For example, pressing Zusanli and pushing spleen meridian can increase the secretion function of digestive juice. From the point of view of modern medicine, * * * mainly promotes the metabolic process of blood and lymph circulation and tissues through * * * peripheral nerves, thus coordinating the functions of various tissues and organs and improving the metabolic level of functions.

2, reconcile qi and blood

Luo Hong, a health care practitioner in the Ming Dynasty, said in "Immortal Immortal Immortality": "The * * * method can clear the orifices and spin Wei Rong". Rotating Wei Rong means harmonizing qi and blood. Because massage acts on the human body with soft force along the meridians and acupoints, and regulates the whole body through the conduction of the meridians, so as to reconcile the qi and blood of the camp and guard and enhance the health of the body.

3, improve the body's immunity.

Massage has the functions of diminishing inflammation, reducing fever, improving immunity and enhancing human disease resistance. It is precisely because massage can dredge meridians, make qi and blood flow everywhere, and keep the balance of yin and yang in the body. Therefore, after massage, you can feel relaxed muscles and flexible joints, make people refreshed and relieve fatigue, which plays an important role in ensuring good health. At the same time, through dredging and conditioning the fourteen meridians, wind, cold, heat, dampness, dryness, fire and toxins in the body can be evacuated and discharged, thus achieving the effect of dredging the pulse and eliminating symptoms.
