But in real life, some friends have insomnia every day and try their best to let themselves sleep every day, but the effect is not obvious. Some friends can't stand this kind of insomnia, so they start to put their thoughts on bedding, then listen to various advertisements or rumors and buy various sleeping pillows to calm their nerves. However, the quality of this kind of sleeping pillow is uneven, and it is easy to buy inappropriate ones if you are not careful.
In order to solve this trouble, I will learn about the medicine pillow today and learn how to make it with you.
A small medicine pillow, why is it effective?
The reason is because of aroma.
In the treatment of traditional Chinese medicine, there are drug therapy, physical therapy, aromatherapy and other treatment methods, and medicinal pillow is one of them. Wearing sachets is also an aromatherapy.
Hua tuo used to treat diseases with aromatherapy.
From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, "the head is the home of wisdom." The head is the intersection of all yang meridians, all yang meridians in the twelve meridians, and the meridian of Chong and Ren, which is closely connected with the meridians of the whole body.
That is to say, the fragrance of medicine enters the body through the nose and mouth, and swims in the meridians of the body, which plays the role of dredging qi and blood, regulating yin and yang, promoting blood circulation and removing blood stasis, and suppressing viscera.
Pillows are also drugs, which need dialectical use, and cannot be used indiscriminately through hearsay.
There are also some people who don't use aromatherapy: pregnant women, children, asthma patients and other friends ban medicinal pillows, and friends who are allergic to certain drugs or allergic constitution should use or ban medicinal pillows with caution.

1, production
It's easy to make a medicine pillow. Chinese medicines bought from pharmacies are dried and ground into coarse powder, mixed evenly, put into gauze and sewn into a pillow bag, with an ordinary pillow under it and a breathable pillowcase made of pure cotton or gauze.
2. Pillow size
Pillows are generally 50cm long, 15~30cm wide and 5~ 10cm high.
cloth
Be sure to choose fabrics with good air permeability, such as cotton or silk, instead of chemical fiber fabrics!
4. The pillow is uncomfortable
Many elderly friends will make a medicine pillow, but after using it, they always feel uneven and uncomfortable.
In fact, this is mainly because when you make your own medicine pillow, the Chinese herbal medicine you choose not only has branches and leaves, roots, but also irregular minerals. At this time, you should pay attention to it. You can't mix it casually. You can wrap it in gauze.
5. Strong smell
Some drugs are very unstable. If you are not used to the taste of medicine at first, you can put it under the cotton pillow first, and then put it directly on the pillow after you are completely used to it.
Time of use
The pillow core should be replaced regularly, preferably one to three months. If it is used for a long time, the taste of the medicine becomes weak, and it is necessary to replace the medicine. If the climate is humid, bask in the sun for one hour every 2-3 weeks to prevent mildew.
