From this we can see the importance of spleen and stomach to human body.
Generally speaking, a person's health after birth is inseparable from the function of the spleen and stomach.
People with good spleen and stomach are often stronger, and vice versa.
Spleen and stomach are a pair of viscera that interact with each other, and the relationship between them can be said to be complementary. The digestive function of the stomach depends on the transport function of the spleen, which needs the powerful function of the stomach.
You can understand that if the digestive function of the stomach is not good, the transport function of the spleen is useless, because there is no food to transport, and since there is no food to transport, it cannot provide energy for the human body.
If the transportation function of the spleen is damaged, even if the digestive function of the stomach is strong, energy cannot be extracted from food, because energy is produced by temper.
Anyway, most people's spleen and stomach function is not very good in life.
In particular, the law of life has seriously damaged the present, so we should find a suitable and effective method to help us improve the function of the spleen and stomach so as not to be exhausted by the heavy pressure of life.
When it comes to regulating the spleen and stomach, many people may think of taking medicine, but many people can't accept it. In fact, the best, healthiest and greenest way to regulate the spleen and stomach is to massage the meridians and acupoints of the human body.
Now that I have talked about meridians and acupoints, I would like to share with you the "Stomach Meridian", which is called "Foot Yangming Stomach Meridian". It is a relatively long meridian of the human body and a relatively large meridian of the human body.
Let's look at the specific meridian points first.
Let's take a look at how Neijing describes the stomach meridian of Foot Yangming.
Classical Chinese may be difficult to understand, especially some professional words are relatively uncommon. You can learn vernacular translation directly (if you want to improve and study in depth, you still have to learn classical Chinese).
The circulation part starts from the nasal side (Xiang Ying point), goes up with the nose, meets at the nasal root left and right, enters the inner corner of the eye, and is in phase with the foot sun meridian;
Down along the outside of the nasal column, into the upper teeth, and then around, along the corners of the mouth, around the lips, and intersect at the pith point of the chin labial groove;
Then retreat to Daying point along the lower edge of the mandible, pass through the ear along the mandibular angle, pass through Shangguan point (the guest), follow the hairline and reach the forehead.
This branch of the meridian runs from the front of Daying point to Ren Ying point, descends along the throat and then to Dazhui, bends forward, enters the pelvic cavity, descends through the diaphragm, and belongs to the stomach and collaterals the spleen.
There is also a straight one, which comes out of the body surface from the lack of basin, goes down along the midline of the breast, holds the navel on both sides (two inches apart), and goes down to the point of Qi Jie outside the groin.
The other branch of this meridian originates from the pylorus of the lower gastric orifice, goes down to Qi Jie point in the abdominal cavity, joins with the straight vein, goes down to the front of the thigh, reaches the knee joint, goes down to the dorsum of the foot along the front edge of the lower limb tibia, and enters the lateral end of the second toe of the foot (Lidui point).
The other branch is 3 inches below the knee (Zusanli point) and goes down to the lateral end of the middle toe. The other branch originates from Chongyang point on the back of the foot, enters the inner end of the big toe of the foot (Bai Yin point) and meets the spleen meridian of Taiyin foot.
The stomach meridian has a wide range of functions, not only the regulation and prevention of spleen and stomach functions, but also many other problems can be solved by acupoints on the stomach meridian. Let's start with the classic Neijing:
In the above paragraph, we can make some summaries. Foot Yangming stomach meridian has some problems in digestive system, nervous system, respiratory system and circulatory system, as well as problems in throat, head, face, mouth, teeth, nose and other organs.
And the problems of the parts of the meridians (where the meridians pass, where the main indications are).
Each meridian or viscera has its own biological clock, which means that each meridian has its own opening and closing time. Only by grasping the biological clock of meridians and viscera in daily life can we make better use of the efficacy of meridians and acupoints and achieve the purpose of prevention and treatment.
7: 00 am to 9: 00 am "Chen Shi"
Qi and blood flow in the stomach, and Yangming meridian is the meridian filled with qi and blood. At this time, the digestion and absorption of human intestines and stomach is the strongest, which is the best moment for nutrients to be delivered to various organs to nourish the viscera, which is also an important reason for breakfast in life.
Seize this moment and eat in time, so that you can have the energy to finish the morning work and lay a good nutritional foundation for this day.
There are many important health-preserving acupoints in the stomach meridian. Today, I will introduce you to several acupoints with the best effect and the most convenient application.
1. Zusanli
【 Location 】 The anterolateral part of the calf is 3 inches below the nose of the calf, with a horizontal finger (middle finger) from the front edge of the tibia.
【 Main effects 】 Stomach pain, vomiting, choking diaphragm, abdominal distension, diarrhea, constipation, joint pain of lower limbs, madness, wasting work and winning thinness. This point has a strong function and is an important point for health care.
2. Kanglong
【 Location 】 When the anterolateral leg and the lateral ankle tip are 8 inches, the two fingers (middle fingers) are located at the front edge of the tibia outside the mouth.
【 Main effects 】 Headache, dizziness, excessive phlegm, cough, vomiting, constipation and paralysis of lower limbs. Large acupoints for resolving phlegm.
3. Shu Tian
【 Location 】 In the middle of abdomen, in the flat umbilicus, 2 inches away from the middle of umbilicus.
【 Main effects 】 Abdominal distension, bowel sounds, periumbilical pain, constipation, diarrhea, dysentery and irregular menstruation.
Spleen and stomach are the foundation of human growth and the source of qi and blood biochemistry. Regular self-massage or moxibustion at these acupoints can play a very good health care role, strengthen the spleen and stomach and prolong life.
