China's folk early? Is it better to wash feet with hot water than to take tonic? On the one hand, from the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine holography, there are many acupoints and visceral reflex zones on the soles of people's feet. Soaking feet with hot water can improve the blood circulation at the end of feet and enhance the function of viscera. For example, soaking feet with hot water can stimulate Yongquan and Taichong points. These two acupoints, one is a warrior of the kidney meridian, and the other is a general of the liver meridian. If we can stimulate them at the same time, we can play a very good role in nourishing kidney and protecting liver.
First, people with smelly feet can use half a white radish, cut it into thin slices, put it in a pot, then add an appropriate amount of water, cook it with strong fire for 3 minutes, then cook it with slow fire for 5 minutes, then pour it into a basin, wash your feet repeatedly after moderate cooling, and wash it several times to remove foot odor.
Second, put a proper amount of salt and a few slices of ginger in hot water, heat it for a few minutes, wash your feet when it is not hot, and rub it for a few minutes, which not only eliminates foot odor, but also makes your feet feel relaxed and can eliminate fatigue.
Third, soak your feet in hot water, and we will find that the blood vessels on your feet will expand and the epidermis of your feet will turn red. This is because hot water will accelerate the blood circulation of the feet, make more blood flow to the peripheral blood vessels of the lower limbs, make the blood flow of the brain relatively reduce, and make people feel sleepy.
Fourthly, because countless nerve endings on the soles of the feet are closely connected with the brain, the warm stimulation of nerve endings on the feet when soaking in hot water can inhibit the cerebral cortex, making people feel comfortable and relaxed in the brain, thus speeding up sleep and deepening sleep.
It is worth noting that women should not use Chinese medicine to soak their feet during menstruation. The problem of women's menstrual period is more complicated. If you can't find the reason, soaking your feet with traditional Chinese medicine can not only relieve it, but also aggravate the symptoms such as dysmenorrhea.
Therefore, if women want to treat menstrual health problems such as dysmenorrhea by soaking their feet with traditional Chinese medicine, it is best to consult a doctor and prescribe medicine according to their own situation. And pregnant women should not soak their feet.
