1, yang deficiency constitution conditioning method
First, yang deficiency constitution is best to exercise more:
"Move for Yang, static for Yin. The less you move, the easier it is to yang deficiency. " Urban people are usually busy, so they like to stay at home and sleep late when they are free. In fact, if you can exercise when the sun rises, it will help improve the yang in your body. It can not only solve the problem of cold limbs, but also give full play to the functions of various organs of the body, such as qi and blood circulation, spleen and stomach transport and so on.
Second, foot bath and acupoint massage are the best prescriptions for yang deficiency;
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that Zusanli point is the main point of the stomach meridian, which can regulate the spleen and stomach, regulate qi and blood, and has the special function of tonifying deficiency and strengthening the spleen. Old people and some women often have cold hands and feet in winter because of poor blood circulation in their hands and feet. If you beat and press Zusanli often, it will produce "gas sensation effect" of "acid, numbness, swelling and pain", which can improve the blood circulation of fingers and toes, and then warm hands and feet. Yongquan point is an important point of kidney meridian. Regular massage of this point can also replenish marrow, tonify kidney, strengthen yang, strengthen tendons and bones.
Soaking feet, this method is mainly aimed at the symptoms of "cold starts from the soles of the feet". The sole of the foot is the end point of human blood gas circulation. If it is in the case of insufficient blood gas, the first place where the supply is insufficient and the cycle is stagnant is of course here. Insufficient blood gas, lack of resistance, cold easily invaded. Soaking feet with hot water just brings warmth, which can promote blood circulation, attract fresh blood, warm the middle and dispel cold, and coagulate things. However, soaking feet is not simply washing feet, but soaking in a higher wooden bucket not far from the knees. This is because many important acupoints of the human body are in this period, such as Sanyinjiao, Zusanli, Yongquan and Kunlun, which are all great health-preserving acupoints. In addition, the foot is the beginning of the three yin meridians of the foot (kidney meridian of foot shaoyin, spleen meridian of foot taiyin and liver meridian of foot jueyin) and the end of the three yang meridians of the foot (bladder meridian of foot taiyang, stomach meridian of foot Yangming and gallbladder meridian of foot shaoyang). Soaking feet is to dredge these six meridians at the same time.
Third, people with yang deficiency are suitable for winter tonic:
As the saying goes: "tonic in winter, tiger in spring." Because skin pores are closed in winter, metabolism slows down, and tonic stores enough energy for the body, so you will have a good body next year. Chen Ruifang said that people have a particularly good appetite in winter, in fact, in order to adapt to the changes in nature. At this time, if you want to save your strength, you have to eat more, especially protein. Mutton, dog meat, rabbit meat and pigeon meat are all good foods. In addition, you can also eat a small amount of red wine or glutinous rice wine. Chinese herbal medicines such as angelica, antler glue, hippocampus and antler all have the function of warming yang, which is more tonic than eating meat alone. For example, boiled mutton with angelica and ginger is a golden formula for nourishing vitality and has a significant effect on women's extreme weakness. Tonifying yang should also replenish qi. Stewing lean meat or chicken with codonopsis pilosula, Radix Astragali and Korean ginseng, or stewing dog meat, fennel, dried tangerine peel and ginger, all have the function of invigorating qi.
2, foot bath taboo to know
1, too full to soak your feet.
When soaking feet, don't be too full, too hungry or eat, because foot massage will speed up the blood circulation of the whole body, which is prone to dizziness and discomfort. It is not advisable to soak your feet within half an hour after a meal, which will affect the blood supply to your stomach.
2, patients with severe heart disease, hypotension beware of syncope.
It is okay for healthy people to soak their feet or soak in hot springs, but special people, such as people with heart disease, cardiac insufficiency, low blood pressure and frequent dizziness, should not soak their feet or soak in hot springs for a long time. Because soaking feet in hot water or soaking in hot springs will dilate blood vessels, and the whole body blood will flow from important organs to the body surface, which will inevitably lead to ischemia and hypoxia in important organs such as the heart and brain. For people with heart disease and low blood pressure, it will increase the risk of illness.
3, diabetic patients must pay attention to the water temperature.
The peripheral nerves of diabetic patients can't sense the outside temperature normally, even if the water temperature is high, and they are easy to burn, which will lead to very serious consequences, so pay attention to the water temperature of soaking feet.
4, beriberi patients should be careful of infection.
People with beriberi should not soak their feet with hot water when their condition is serious enough to blister, because it is easy to cause wound infection. Foot inflammation, dermatosis, trauma or skin burn are not easy to soak.
5. Old people should not soak their feet for too long.
Old people who soak their feet for too long will have symptoms such as sweating and palpitation. Therefore, it is better for the elderly to soak their feet for 20 minutes before going to bed every day.
6. There is no need for babies to soak their feet.
Because children are pure yang, they are prone to fever and fall in love with fire. If you soak your feet in hot water and sweat again, you will get hot. Just wash your feet with warm water every day. After washing, you can gently pinch your feet and relax your muscles.
