Low back pain, cervical spine discomfort, use this acupoint well!

Because modern people often spend more time sitting and lying down than walking and working, many people have symptoms of low back pain and cervical spine discomfort.


In addition to going to the hospital for physiotherapy, you can also try acupoint therapy.


Today we will introduce an acupuncture point on the waist and back of the human body: Weizhong acupoint!


First, the back is entrusted



In our daily life, friends who have a little health experience have heard of a sentence called waist and back entrustment, and the commission here refers to the acupuncture point of the commission. It is a pity that many people have never paid attention to this treasure on their bodies in their lives, but they are tormented by low back pain and back pain. It is a hermit in our body, and we might as well look at it, invite it out, and let it help us to build a healthy backbone.


The four total acupoints are singing clouds: the belly and abdomen are three miles away, the waist and back are entrusted, the head item is missing, and the face and mouth are closed. The phrase "low back commission in the middle of the request" comes from the "Song of the Four General Acupoints", which was first recorded in the "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Encyclopedia" compiled by the acupuncturist Xu Feng in the Ming Dynasty.


Why are low back diseases advisable? Why?


Most of the pain in the lower back is caused by the bladder meridian, which is caused by the obstruction of qi and blood in the bladder meridian. The foot sun bladder meridian is the most vigorous meridian of yang energy, in the waist and back of the human body, except for the middle of the meridian, the rest are all bladder meridians, two on the left and right sides of the spine.


"Where the meridians pass, the main treatment reaches", it is determined that the Weizhong acupoint has the function of treating acute low back pain and other diseases. If the bladder is blocked by qi and blood, it will lead to a lack of yang qi in the human body and cause diseases and pain in the lower back - if it is not passed, it will be painful.


The bladder meridian is from head to toe, and there are two branch veins that pass through the waist and finally meet the Weizhong acupoint. Therefore, through massage and moxibustion to stimulate the acupoints of Weizhong, it can invigorate the vitality of the entire bladder meridian, dredge the qi and blood in the lower back, enhance the body's yang qi, and regulate the pain of the waist.


The Weizhong acupoint is easy to find, that is, in the fossa, this acupoint is at a fork in the road, and the bladder meridians that are two branches in the dorsal part converge into one here, and continue to go down. Therefore, stimulating this acupuncture point can invigorate the vitality of the entire bladder meridian, especially to dredge the qi and blood in the lower back and strongly click on this acupoint, and the pain of the patient's lower back will be greatly reduced even if it will not disappear immediately.


What does it mean to "ask for a low back"? Many people understand it as: the pain on the lower back should be taken from the acupoint. This is a bit too mechanical, and there is also a word "ask", which was lost by them. My understanding of this sentence is: The pain in the lower back should be sought from the Weizhong acupoint. What do you ask for?


When we look at a healthy child, or a person with a normal waist, when you let him lie down, touch the part of his body, and you will find that it is sunken, which is normal. If there is a bulge, or a cord, or a pouch, or a tender point, this is what you are asking for. Tie this bump or bandage it with a needle, or rub it with your fingers to make it disappear on its own, so that the commission can heal your lower back.


In the committee, the vast majority of lumbar vertebrae have problems with the protrusions or small bags that can be "sought" here. For a while, in order to observe the acupoint of the committee, I went to the public bathroom to see, and when I saw the bulging of the committee, I walked over to talk to me, and after a few words, I asked, "Do you have a little back pain?" "The results are amazing, ask one for one.


The most important thing in the treatment of the bladder meridian is the Weizhong acupoint. The committee is hiding very deeply, and we buried it with a slight bend of the leg, probably because it is so useful, so it is so closely protected by the human body. It is precisely because it hides the deepest, it is very delicate and very sensitive, and once stimulated, the reaction will be the most intense, and it can affect the entire meridian the most. Unfortunately, because it is buried deeply, it receives the least amount of irritation.


Second, the location of the acupoint



In the committee, in the committee, in the pile. Middle, the qi and blood in the finger point are located in the middle of the three parts of heaven, man and earth.


The name of the acupoint means that the hot and humid water of the bladder meridian gathers here, which is the water and moisture of the bladder through the lower part of the knee and the ascending qi after absorbing heat.


The Weizhong acupoint is located at the midpoint of the popliteal stria behind the knee of the human body, when the middle of the biceps femoris tendon and the semitendinosus tendon; The Weizhong acupoint is in the middle of the popliteal fossa, with popliteal fascia, between the inner and outer head of the gastrocnemius muscle; Popliteal arteries and veins; There is a distribution of posterior femoral cutaneous nerve and tibial nerve.  


The classic records about the Weizhong acupoint:


The "Lingshu Sutra" says: "Take it from the commission". By extension, the word commission is composed of upper and lower women, and the grain of the He is also, the female refers to the yin, and the meaning of the yin essence is also there.


"The Evil Guest": "There is evil in the lungs and heart, and its qi is left in the elbows; The liver is evil, and its qi flows in the armpits; The spleen is evil, and its qi stays in the two hips; The kidneys are evil, and their qi stays in the two popliteals. All these eight voids are the rooms of the organs, the places where the true qi passes, and the places where the blood flows. ”


It is recorded in the "Neijing": "The foot sun vein makes people have low back pain, and the back of the people is like a heavy shape, and the sun is bleeding in the middle of the stabbing body."


Acute lumbar sprain and low back pain are internal deficiency and external force that damage the muscles and veins, qi stagnation and blood coagulation, and pain due to blockage, and the lower back is the part of the bladder meridian circulation, so the bleeding in the bladder through the acupoint can be treated.
