Shoulder and neck blockage kills people, and shoulder and neck obstruction causes all kinds of diseases!
Li Jianhua, the former director of the non-banking department of the China Banking Regulatory Commission, died of a heart attack at the age of 49, which makes people sigh. Director Li appeared to have a myocardial infarction, but it was actually caused by cervical spondylosis.
There are two reasons: first, Director Li's cervical spine is not good, and he worked overtime until the early hours of the morning that night, and his neck was stiff due to a long time in one posture; Secondly, when he fell asleep, he still maintained a wrong posture: sleeping on his side and lowering his head caused the neck muscles to tighten, stimulated the sympathetic nervous system, and led to coronary smooth muscle spasm, myocardial ischemia, and death from myocardial infarction. Friends with bad cervical spine are advised to be careful and not to delay themselves.
Since the shoulder and neck are the main switches of the brain, the blood injected into the head and face passes through the shoulder and neck. Traditional Chinese medicine says that the best way to regulate the human body is to open up qi and blood, if the qi and blood are not smooth, the toxins in the blood accumulate in the shoulders and neck, which will harden the shoulders and neck.
How bad is a bad shoulder and neck? It's dangerous!
The scary thing is that it has also been found medically that shoulder and neck problems can cause at least 70 diseases throughout the body, and the following are a few common ones.
1. Poor swallowing: there is a feeling of obstruction when swallowing, a foreign body sensation in the esophagus, and a few people have nausea, vomiting, hoarseness, dry cough, chest tightness and other symptoms.
2. Visual impairment: decreased vision, eye swelling and pain, photophobia, tears, etc., and even blindness.
3. Abdominal distension and constipation: Some patients with shoulder and neck problems are stimulated and damaged by the adjacent cervical sympathetic nerve, which slows down the peristalsis of the gastrointestinal tract of the internal organs innervated by it.
4. Hypertension: Significant increase in blood pressure is called "cervical hypertension". Because cervical spine problems and high blood pressure are common in the elderly, they often coexist.
5. Chest pain: unilateral pectoralis major muscle and breast pain, pectoralis major muscle tenderness during examination, which is related to cervical bone spur compression by cervical vertebrae in the sixth and seventh cervical nerve roots.
6. Cataplexy: When standing or walking, the body loses support due to sudden turning of the head, and can wake up quickly after falling to the ground.
7. Paralysis of the lower limbs: the early manifestations are numbness, pain, and claudication of the lower limbs, and some patients also have defecation and urination disorders, such as frequent urination, urgency or incontinence.
8. Alzheimer's disease: once the shoulder and neck problems are prominent, the transverse process foramen becomes thinner and deformed, which will lead to insufficient blood supply to the supplied brain area, and chronic cerebral ischemia will cause cognitive decline such as forgetting, and dementia will eventually occur in the long run.
This shoulder and neck problem looks inconspicuous, and the threat to our life and health is very great, and it is serious and kills!

Using the fingers, palms, elbows, etc., to carry out unidirectional linear movement on a certain part is called pushing. When operating, the fingers, palms, elbows, etc. should be close to the body surface, slow movement, and the force should be uniform and penetrating.
Function: It has the functions of dissipation and stagnation, antispasmodic and analgesic, dissipation of stasis and knots, and tendon management, which can improve muscle excitability and promote blood circulation.
Second, the way to hold
Use the thumb and index finger, middle finger or thumb and other four fingers to make relative force, and pinch and lift one tight and one loose on a certain part and acupuncture point, which is called holding.
The force should be light and heavy, continuous and rhythmic, gentle and coherent, the point of contact should be at the fingertips and not at the fingertips, and the wrists should be relaxed.
Function: It is used in the neck, shoulders and limbs and other parts with other techniques, which has the effect of dispelling wind and cold, relaxing tendons and channels, relieving spasms, eliminating muscle soreness and mental fatigue, and is widely used in cervical spine massage.

The finger method is applied to all acupuncture points in the body; The palm press method is often used on the lower back and lower limbs; The elbow press method has the most pressure and is mostly used on the lower back, buttocks and thighs.
Acupuncture point maintenance
1. Moxibustion large vertebral acupoints
In "Acupuncture and Moxibustion", it is said that "the head is missing and missing", and this cervical spine problem can also be improved by moxibustion and missing acupoints.
When you look down, feel your hand down the middle of the cervical vertebrae, and when you feel a bulging bone, a little further down, you will feel a small depression, which is the large vertebral point.
Moxibustion method: During moxibustion, use two fingers to clamp the large vertebral acupuncture points, let them play the role of alarm, feel the heat change in time, and adjust the moxibustion height at any time to prevent burns.
Moxibustion time: 10-15 minutes of moxibustion and then 30 minutes of moxibustion of large vertebral points.
2. Massage the back neck acupuncture points
Spread your hands slightly apart, along the back of your neck and spine, and gently press on the acupuncture points. "Wind" refers to the qi and blood in the acupuncture points as the wind; "House", house also. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the qi of the Du Mai absorbs moisture and dissolves wind in the Fengfu acupoint, so stimulating this acupoint has the function of heat dissipation and moisture absorption.
This acupuncture point is located at the back of the head, in the middle of the back and upwards, at the edge of the hair. If you have pain and numbness in the back of your head, massage here can be effective.
There are two Fengchi points, also at the back of the head. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the gallbladder meridian qi and blood absorb heat here and then turn into yang heat. Fengchi acupoint has the effect of aphrodisiac and qi.
If you have a headache, dizziness, and are prone to tinnitus, you can massage this acupuncture point more. People who often have migraines can also pay attention to this acupuncture point. Usually, if you have a migraine, massage the Feng Chi acupoint corresponding to the direction of the pain, and the effect will be very fast.
3. Massage the three acupuncture points on the back of the hand
Nakatsugisa is located between the little finger and ring finger, about 2 cm below (wrist side). When touched with a finger, it is approximately in the recess between the phalanx of the little finger and the ring finger.
The penis pool is located in the center of the wrist, near the side of the little finger. To put it more carefully, the fingertips are turned upside down, and each finger will form a very thick tendon at the wrist, and the part where the thick tendons of the middle finger and ring finger cross to the wrist is the position of the yang pool.
Guan Chong is located on the lower end of the ring fingernail, on the side of the little finger. To be correct, it should be on the left side of the ring fingernail, draw a straight line, and draw a horizontal line at the bottom of the nail, and the place where these two lines intersect is Guan Chong.
Can a shoulder and neck maintenance solve the shoulder and neck problems?
Doing shoulder and neck maintenance cannot fundamentally solve the cervical spine problem, because the cervical spine problem is formed over time, and solving it also requires a treatment process.
However, if you can continue to do the set course of treatment, you will definitely be able to solve the shoulder and neck problems.
Many people think that cervical spondylosis is not a very important disease, and it is good to rest and rest, but if it is delayed, the treatment will become more and more difficult, and some even have to do surgery!
Therefore, it is recommended that everyone prevent and treat early!
Usually do more shoulder and neck maintenance,
Don't be killed by shoulder and neck problems one day, and you don't know yet!
