I forget what I just said, I repeat things, I can't remember where I put things, I tend to leave things when I go out, and in serious cases, I don't even know my family...... This is a common manifestation of Alzheimer's disease.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that Alzheimer's disease has different pathological mechanisms such as kidney deficiency, deficiency of heart qi, blood stasis and internal obstruction, phlegm obsession, etc., and it is advisable to press the two acupuncture points to help prevent dementia.

The method is to rub the back of the hand to close the Gu acupoint and the Zu Taichong acupoint.

Pinch the Taichong acupoint on the same side with the thumb of one hand (the anterior depression of the junction of the first and second metatarsals on the dorsum of the foot), and the strength should be to feel soreness. Repeat for 1~3 minutes, once a day. Taichong acupoint is the original acupoint of the liver meridian, which can activate blood and dispel blood stasis.
