The favorite "Tong" method of traditional Chinese medicine can be done by walking, sitting and lying down, slimming the stomach, treating insomnia, soothing the liver and strengthening the spleen!
There is a saying in traditional Chinese medicine that rubbing the abdomen in the morning and evening will prevent all diseases. Although belly rubbing is simple, it is a practice that has been passed down for thousands of years. Sun Simiao, the king of medicine, takes "walking a hundred steps after eating, often rubbing the abdomen with his hands" as his way of longevity. The belly is the foundation of life. The abdomen is where the five internal organs reside, the liver, spleen, stomach, gall bladder, large intestine, small intestine, kidney, bladder and other organs are distributed. From the perspective of meridians, the abdomen gathers the Ren meridians, the six intestines, the kidney, stomach, spleen, and liver meridians, which are the land of Kuntu and the center of the human body. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, it is necessary to rub the abdomen regularly to pass up and down, separate yin and yang, enrich the five internal organs, drive away all evils from external senses, and clear all internal diseases. The abdomen is also the root of all diseases. All chronic diseases can find a corresponding block point in our abdomen. When a chronic disease persists and we don't know what the cause is and how to treat it, we can look for this abdominal blockage point (maybe a hard lump, maybe a pain point, maybe a "sink", maybe an "air mass"). As long as it is pushed away and kneaded, the chronic disease will slowly disappear with it. Many poor digestion and absorption, frequent constipation and diarrhea, old cold stomach, the abdomen can often feel pimples, nodules or pain points, generally speaking, insist on rubbing the abdomen for about a week, you can see the effect. Rub the abdomen to remove the three turbidities.......................................................... Rub the belly, rub what? Rubbing the abdomen is essentially to remove turbidity, turbidity, and turbidity from our body. Where does the turbidity come from, the turbidity that accumulates in our abdomen is due to indigestion, and the food is not cooked and fermented. There is also the stagnation of daily quarrels and sulking; Sedentary for a long time, the body's qi is not smooth, the turbid qi has no way to be released and discharged, and the qi blockage that stops and does not go is suppressed. If the qi is stagnant, the blood will stop, and if the blood is unfavorable, it will be water, and finally it will stagnate and condense into a mass, which will become phlegm, turbidity, water, and blood stasis in our body. The spleen and stomach are the source of phlegm, and people with perennial gastrointestinal discomfort must have a cloud of waste water and turbid water in their stomachs. After a long time, we will inevitably show various symptoms, such as pimples, cords, nodules, lumps, indurations, pain points, and swelling that we touch on the stomach, all of which are blocked by the internal organs. Rubbing the abdomen is a process of dredging, removing turbidity, and regenerating qi and blood. Abdominal rubbing has many effects The elixir is hidden in the abdomen, and the life of kneading is long. The benefits of consistent belly rubbing are numerous. 1. Strengthen the spleen and stomach The abdomen is the place where many meridians such as the stomach meridian and the spleen meridian follow, and rubbing the abdomen can strengthen the spleen and prevent stomach diseases. Constipation, diarrhea, and frequent gastrointestinal discomfort are suitable for abdominal rubbing. 2. Throw off fat and slim belly The big belly belongs to the spleen, and the reason for many people's obesity is that the spleen and stomach are lost in good health, cold and dampness accumulate, and qi and blood are blocked. 3. Promote sleep Many people's insomnia is caused by yang not entering yin, and by rubbing the abdomen, you can reconcile yin and yang, straighten out the body's qi, and calm your nerves and help you sleep. At the same time, if the stomach is not in harmony, it can help eliminate food accumulation, calm the spleen and stomach, and also help sleep. 4. Women warm the uterus, and men nourish the kidneys The lower abdomen is where the female uterus is located, and it is also the place where the liver meridian follows, and the liver meridian is in charge of the male and female genitals. By rubbing the abdomen, women warm the uterus and drive away cold, which can regulate gynecological problems such as dysmenorrhea, low menstrual flow, and uterine fibroid cysts. Men can moisten the tendons, stabilize the sperm room, dredge stasis, and avoid problems such as varicocele and prostatitis. 5.
