Therefore, tiptoe can massage the foot three yin meridians and warm the kidney.
Precautions for tiptoe
Don't stand on tiptoe immediately after eating, because your stomach is full at this time and you need enough blood to digest and absorb the nutrients in the gastrointestinal tract. If you stand on tiptoe at this time, it will easily lead to a decrease in local blood volume, thus affecting the body's digestive ability.
When doing tiptoe exercise, you need to move and stretch your body first. For example, you can twist your joints properly before exercise to achieve the effect of warming up. In order to avoid the occurrence of local injuries when the body is uncomfortable, it will be put into the action of tiptoe.
