Cupping can treat cervical spondylosis.
1, cupping method
First of all, the old Chinese doctor told you with great certainty that cupping can effectively treat most cervical spondylosis, although the causes of the symptoms of cervical spondylosis are very complicated! Numerous clinical cases have proved that cupping has a good effect on treating cervical spondylosis. The theoretical explanation of TCM is as follows:
Cervical spondylosis is mostly caused by deficiency of kidney and essence, deficiency of qi and blood, stagnation of qi and phlegm, and accumulation of epidemic blood, which leads to obstruction of meridians and unfavorable bones and muscles. The main clinical symptoms are severe numbness in the head and neck, soreness when pressing, and even incontinence in severe cases, and the elderly are very likely to have a stroke.
Cupping in traditional Chinese medicine can effectively relax and activate meridians, help blood circulation and relieve the troubles of cervical spondylosis by stimulating shoulder and neck related points such as Dazhui, Shoujing, Tianzong, Quchi, Shousanli and Waiguan.
2. Cupping method
Use flash fire method (put the lighted alcohol cotton ball into a jar and burn it, take out the cotton ball and quickly cover it on the affected skin. ) The jar can be adsorbed on Dazhui, Daba, Shoujing, Shouyi, Tianzong, Geba and Ganshu, or it can be sucked on the above acupuncture points with an air pump. The jar can be kept for 10~ 15 minutes, once a day 1 time.
3. Pricking blood and cupping
Take Dazhui, Jianjing, Shoulder Epiphysis, Neck Jiaji and Ashi points, after local routine disinfection, tap with a skin needle until there is slight bleeding, and immediately cupping with flash fire.
4. Potting method
The flame cupped in the neck and walked back and forth along the neck ridge, hands, small intestines and shoulders, and the sun to Tianzong.
5. Potting method
Put bamboo tubes with different calibers into boiling liquid medicine (65,438+/-00g each of Folium Artemisiae Argyi, Radix Saposhnikoviae, Cortex Eucommiae, Herba Ephedrae, Fructus Chaenomelis, Fructus Zanthoxyli, Squama Manis, Eupolyphaga Seu Steleophaga, Notopterygii Rhizoma, Rhizoma Atractylodis, Radix Angelicae Pubescentis, Lignum sappan, Flos Carthami, Semen Persicae, Caulis et Folium Gaultheriae Yunnanensis, and Cortex Erythrinae, 5g each of Olibanum and Myrrha), and
I feel very comfortable at the thought of taking a bath in warm water, cupping in warm water and pulling it out after washing. However, we really need to pay attention to this order. You can cupping after taking a bath, but you must never take a bath immediately after cupping. This is because after cupping, the skin is in a state of injury and very fragile. Bathing at this time can easily lead to skin damage and inflammation. If you take a cold bath, it is easy to catch cold because your skin is in a state of open pores. So you must not take a bath immediately after cupping.
Take a bath after acupuncture and cupping for 3 hours.
It is not advisable to take a bath within 3 hours after cupping. Cupping is not suitable for one hour before and after meals and after drinking. Pregnant women, people with weak constitution and patients with skin diseases should not have cup holders; In addition, people with low platelet levels are prone to skin congestion when cupping, which is not suitable; Children can also cupping, but the number and frequency are less than adults.
The longer cupping time, the better?
Many people say that cupping takes at least half an hour. Some people think that cupping can only pull out blisters, especially some elderly people hold this view. And is cupping really as long as possible? In fact, cupping is different according to the size, material and negative pressure of cupping. But generally speaking, the time from ignition to can lifting should not exceed ten minutes. Because the main principle of cupping is negative pressure rather than time, if cupping takes too long under the condition of high negative pressure until the blister is pulled out, it will not only hurt the skin, but also cause skin infection.
