TCM Health Care
As the saying goes, "comb your hair a thousand times, and your illness will be reduced by half." Is combing your hair really so magical? In fact, people have discovered the health care value of combing hair in ancient times. For example, it is said in "Three-Yuan Counselor's Life Extension Book" that "if you comb too much, you will get rid of it when you see the wind, often with 120." The theory of pathogenic factors and disease stages says: "It is a thousand times more than combing your hair, and your head is not white."

There are abundant blood vessels, nerves, sebaceous glands and sweat glands on human scalp. When combing hair, it can not only stimulate nerve endings, but also regulate the head nerves through the cerebral cortex, so that the head nerves can be stretched and relaxed. It is also beneficial to the regulation of the central nervous system, accelerating blood circulation, improving and enhancing the blood supply of scalp and brain cells, and eliminating brain fatigue. Combing hair can promote blood circulation and fully nourish hair follicles, sebaceous glands and sweat glands.

So how do you comb it? When combing your hair, first comb the tangled hair with your five fingers. If you encounter a knot in your hair, comb it from the middle to the tail. Hair should be pulled in the direction perpendicular to the scalp and combed in the opposite direction from the top of the left ear and the right ear. It is best to comb your hair three times a day, after getting up early, during lunch break and before going to bed. 10- Let the scalp burn, swell and numb for 30 minutes at a time. However, don't use too much force, just use it evenly, and let the comb teeth gently touch the scalp.
