Introduction: Professor Jin Bohua, a famous acupuncturist, is nearly 80 years old, but he speaks neatly and moves quickly. His body is full of open-minded and free-spirited masculinity, and his manners and manners reflect the unique elegance of intellectuals in the fifties and sixties. He is physically fit enough to attend acupuncture clinics three times a week and attend some lectures and social activities. You know, needling needles requires not only finger strength, but also physical strength. Jin Lao told reporters that if you want to talk about your health experience, you should pay attention to the smoothness of meridians and qi and blood.

Often without passing through

Meridian is invisible and intangible, and there is no conclusion about its essence in the west through various means, but it is very important in TCM treatment and health preservation. Meridians and collaterals include the twelve meridians, which are distributed all over the body, connected with zang-fu organs, bones of limbs, inside and outside, and run through the upper and lower parts. But the meridian is not static. Since it is the channel of qi and blood, it should be unblocked, so as to maintain the normal physiological function of viscera. If the meridian block is not smooth, it will cause mild discomfort.

The ancients have long understood this truth. Neijing said: "Those who live in the meridians decide life and death, cure all diseases and adjust the deficiency and excess." Therefore, the treatment of diseases in traditional Chinese medicine, whether acupuncture or decoction, is based on the premise of promoting qi circulation, which is smooth. The so-called "the use of acupuncture is the most important; Moxibustion warms meridians to eliminate evil; The patient's original intention is to regulate blood circulation and dispel wind and arthralgia; It's better to go into the classics than to decoct. "

To keep the meridians and qi and blood unblocked, Jin Bohua has two experiences: one is to feel comfortable, and the other is to follow the meridians before practicing every day to keep his body safe.

Open the meridian along the meridian.

Beating along the meridian can make the meridians and qi and blood unblocked, which has many purposes of prevention and treatment. This is also the profound experience of Jin Lao's practice for many years. In fact, acupuncture drugs also mean this, but they are only aimed at the serious obstruction of meridians. Flapping should follow the order of meridians, so that the qi of meridians can be connected smoothly. We can take four beats and eight beats as the rhythm, and we should beat it gently and firmly with moderate strength. The specific method is as follows:

Beat the meridians

Clap three meridians of Yin San Yang.

Beat with the rhythm of eight beats (four beats), beat with the right hand from the front of the left chest to the palm and fingers to the inside of the arm, and then turn it over from the outside of the finger to the outside of the shoulder and arm, and so on twice. Then beat your right arm with your left hand in the same way and in the same rhythm. In this way, the hand, the three yin hands and the three yang meridians are fully tapped. The meridians of the three yin hands and three yang hands include lung, pericardium, heart, large intestine, small intestine and triple energizer viscera. Such beating can dredge meridians, tonify heart yin, tonify chest yang, disperse lung and eliminate phlegm, increase vital capacity, promote intestinal peristalsis, relax bowels and regulate qi, and reach triple energizer.

Tap the meridians of foot three yin and foot three yang.

Beat with the rhythm of eight beats (four beats), and hit the abdomen with both hands from the inside of the leg, ankle and ankle; Then slap your hands down along the sacroiliac joint from the outside of your leg to the outside of your ankle, and then put one leg on a stool or step on a step with a moderate height, with your right hand patting the front of your left leg and your left hand patting the back of your left leg. Pat twice like this, and then pat your right leg in the same way and at the same rhythm. In this way, the three Yin San Yang meridians of the foot are fully tapped. The meridians of foot three yin and foot three yang include spleen, liver, kidney, bladder, gallbladder and stomach viscera. Such beating can strengthen the spleen and promote diuresis, soothe the liver and gallbladder, harmonize the stomach and relieve depression, nourish the kidney and yin, and promote diuresis and qi.

Percussion and points on the back of bladder meridian

Slap with the rhythm of eight beats (four beats), with one hand slowly from Dazhui along the spine to lumbosacral region, that is, coccyx, then from the lower abdomen along the midline to the chest and throat with both hands, and then from top to bottom along both sides of the spine with both hands, so as to slap the viscera at the acupoints of Ren Du and Bladder Meridian. This can help the function of the twelve zang-fu organs, promote the rise of Yang Qi, dredge triple energizer and regulate yin and yang.

Slap your shoulders and neck.

Eight beats (four beats), hold your right elbow with your left hand, hit Dazhui point, neck and left shoulder and back with your right hand, and then hit neck, Dazhui point and right shoulder and back with your left hand. The method is the same. Then put your hands on your hips, tuck in your abdomen, turn your waist clockwise for two eight beats, and then turn your waist counterclockwise for two eight beats, but the rotation range should not be too large. It can promote qi and blood circulation of shoulder, neck and waist, and help to prevent and treat scapulohumeral periarthritis and cervical spondylosis.

Pat the shoulder and pat the back.

Pat one's knees

Straighten your knees, bend over, put your feet on the steps with moderate height, pat the back of your left knee with your left hand and the front of your left knee with your right hand, then pat the outside of your left knee with your left hand and the inside of your left knee with your right hand. Then pat the right knee in the same way. This is beneficial to the circulation of qi and blood in both knees and prevents or delays degenerative joint diseases in the elderly.

In view of the once popular method of beating the gallbladder meridian, Jin Lao emphasized that it is of course important to beat the gallbladder meridian, but it is only one of the 14 meridians, and other meridians should also be beaten, so it cannot be generalized. If you persist for a period of time, you will feel the opening of meridians and the smoothness of qi and blood, but you will feel refreshed and feel comfortable, and you can also prevent and treat diseases. The action is simple, it only takes five minutes at a time, but it is very effective.
