What do you mean by "the general rules don't hurt, but the pain doesn't make sense"? Chinese medicine shared 3 tricks to help you dredge meridians.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the human body has many meridians, just like the roads in cities, which provide channels for the operation of qi and blood. If the channels and collaterals are blocked, it will also cause the same consequences as "traffic jam". In order to deal with this problem, massage came into being.

Some people don't eat hard food when they massage, but they feel pain when they press it a little. At this time, Chinese medicine said that this is "the general principle does not hurt, but the pain will not work." In the case of smooth channels and collaterals, massage will not bring discomfort, but when you meet a certain place, you will feel pain and soreness, indicating that the channels and collaterals here are impassable. Many people think that there are such things as meridians. Let's get to know each other.

Is it really "the general rule does not hurt, but the pain will not work"?

There is a saying in Huangdi Neijing: Meridian can decide life and death, cure all diseases and regulate deficiency and excess. In other words, meridians can affect people's life and death, illness and regulate qi and blood. When qi and blood in the human body are not smooth, it will naturally affect health.

In the view of Chinese medicine, "communication" means that the meridians in the human body are connected and the qi and blood are connected. Once it doesn't work, it will cause "pain", which is manifested as swelling pain, cold pain, stabbing pain, cold pain, soreness and other pains. After the "pain" happens, we need to find the root of the "impassability" in order to solve the problem.

What consequences may meridian impassability bring to human body?

Starting from different meridians, we can also better distinguish the causes of some abnormal performance of the body.

Obstruction of lung meridian

The left and right arms are symmetrically distributed with the "Hand Taiyin Lung Meridian". When the lung meridian is blocked, it may cause dry throat and cough, sore throat and fear of wind, rhinitis, hyperhidrosis, dry skin and other problems. It is mentioned in Huangdi Neijing Su Wenwei Lun that the lung governs the fur. The skin and hair of the body rely on lung qi, which can help the hair disperse qi and open and close sweat pores.

Obstruction of large intestine meridian

Hand Yangming large intestine meridian is in the left hand. When the meridians here are blocked, it will directly affect the gastrointestinal function in the human body and affect the transportation of food. However, the large intestine meridian and the lung meridian are both connected from the outside to the inside. When the intestinal meridian is blocked, it may cause problems such as dry mouth, toothache and indigestion, thus affecting many functions such as eating and digestion.

Obstruction of spleen meridian

The so-called spleen is the foundation of the day after tomorrow The spleen meridian is unobstructed, and the blood circulation in the human body will be smoother. Fatigue, fatigue, heavy moisture, edema, loose stool, abdominal distension and belching always occur, which are mostly related to the obstruction of the spleen meridian of the Taiyin foot in the human body. Pain and soreness will also occur when massaging acupoints such as Sanyinjiao, Xue Hai and Shangqiu.

These are several common meridians that are prone to abnormalities, and the human body will feel uncomfortable. If you don't have these feelings at ordinary times, most meridians are fine, so don't worry too much. However, if these conditions are met, it may be necessary to use some methods to dredge the meridians and regulate the body.

There are three ways for TCM to dredge meridians.

Warm-up, warm-up, dredge meridians and collaterals

Many people have the problem of meridian obstruction, because the body is heavy with moisture and cold. And if you want to dredge the meridians, you must first dispel the cold. It is necessary to warm up the body to relieve the cold and dampness in the body. For example, moxibustion and cupping can better improve the problem. It is mentioned in "Soul Pivot Stabs True Evil": "The blood coagulation in the pulse stops, the fire of Buddha can be adjusted, and the Buddha can take it." The fire tone mentioned here is moxibustion, which is of great help to regulate the problem of cold coagulation and blood stasis.

Comb your hair often to promote stagnation.

There is a Baihui point on the top of the head, which is a meeting of all kinds of yang. This acupoint * * * has five meridians gathered here, which is the highest acupoint in the human body and the most abundant yang. Besides, ancient books say that you should comb your hair often. Combing your hair often can stimulate Baihui, Tang Yin and Fengchi points on your head. Combing hair with a wooden comb, horn comb or finger pulp can give some stimulation without losing tenderness, thus dredging meridians and promoting stagnation.

Knead auricle and dredge kidney meridian.

Spleen is the acquired foundation and kidney is the innate foundation, and the two are interrelated. After getting up every morning, knead the auricle with both hands, which is what Chinese medicine calls auricular point method. Auricle is the place where many meridians of human body pass, terminate and converge. Stimulating the acupoints here can also regulate and dredge the meridians and play a role in calming the nerves and helping sleep.

If there are problems such as pain and impassability in the process of Chinese massage, it is likely to be related to the impassability of human meridians. Combined with some manifestations in daily life, we can also find out where the meridians are blocked and take reasonable Chinese medicine methods to regulate and dredge the meridians. When the meridians are opened, the body will feel comfortable and carefree, and it is not easy to have abnormal performance.
