Share a case of an old Chinese medicine doctor:
One day, a patient came to the outpatient clinic and sat crookedly in front of me. I looked at him carefully, and saw that the patient's face and eyes were a little swollen, and his forehead was also wet, which was a typical symptom of yang deficiency at first glance. Isn't the patient a true portrayal of this sentence?
After careful questioning, the patient told me that a few days ago, he was on the way to the park to exercise because of a sudden change of cold, no fever and no cough, but he felt very stuffy in his chest, and he couldn't breathe when he spoke, and he didn't care at first. As a result, two days later, I broke out in a cold sweat all over my body, especially when I got up in the morning, my face was very swollen. After the diagnosis, I prescribed him a dose of Xiaoqinglong soup that sweated and relieved his appearance, and then pricked a needle on his Shenmai acupoint, and after a needle, the patient's rickety body was gradually able to straighten, and he sweated less than just now, and felt much more comfortable.
"Leg pain in the back curvature" is an obvious sign of cold after the bladder feels the cold and evil qi. Because the yang stilt leads to the bladder meridian, and the Shen pulse itself is an important acupuncture point of the bladder meridian. Therefore, the Shen Mai acupoint is from the middle of the yang to the yang, and the use of this acupuncture point can not only dissipate the cold evil in the body, but also make the yang qi reach the peak, which not only plays a balancing role in the human body, but also makes people walk lightly and vigorously. With Xiaoqinglong soup, the mutual understanding between the outside and the inside plays a role in getting twice the result with half the effort. The cold evil in the patient's body can be discharged from the body in a short period of time, and its own yang energy can be restored. It can also be said that it is a wonderful point to dispel cold and return to yang.
After the human body is subjected to cold evil, it will shrink into a ball and shiver, which is called "urgent retraction" in traditional Chinese medicine, and the Shen pulse acupoint has the meaning of stretching the veins, which can quickly mobilize the body's yang energy, and the yang energy is enough to disperse the cold and evil. But what if you don't know how to prick?
Eight veins intersection acupoints, both acupuncture and moxibustion, "acupuncture is cure, moxibustion is life-nourishing", acupuncture can not be mastered by everyone, moxibustion therapy is a simple and easy-to-learn green health therapy, suitable for daily health care. Some people say that the eight-vein intersection acupoint is like a nuclear reactor, with huge energy, and a large area can be cured, which is true.
When the body is affected by the wind and cold, you will feel a slight soreness when you tap the Shen pulse acupoint. During moxibustion, you can feel a slight heat in this area, and sometimes you can clearly feel a warm current slowly rising from your feet, and you will stretch a lot in an instant. If there is some slight sweating on the body during moxibustion, it is a manifestation of the body's yang energy rising to dispel wind and cold.
You may wish to moxibustion a moxibustion Shenmai acupoint, which can not only prevent influenza, but also enhance immunity, especially the elderly or people with a cold constitution should often moxibustion this acupoint. The old legs of people decay first, which is the manifestation that yang energy cannot reach the end of the human body, and moxibustion can effectively delay this process and have the function of returning yang and saving life.
