Bow your head and touch your feet, all diseases will be cured, many diseases have switches on your feet, but you don't know!
The feet are located at the lowest point of the human body, carrying the weight of the whole body, walking briskly, full of energy, which is the manifestation of the human body's vigor and vigor, which is usually called the feeling of a hundred times the spirit. And when people feel mentally exhausted, they often feel the first thing they feel in their legs and feet. The feet, the qi and blood, the internal organs, the internal and external organs, and different parts project the five internal organs and six internal organs. That's why the foot is also called the "second heart". Traditional Chinese medicine has long had the saying that "the upper disease is taken down, and all diseases are cured", that is, many diseases of the whole body can be cured from the feet. Here are a few of the conditions that can be treated by the feet:
01
Dry eyes – rubbing the big toe Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "the liver is the main eye, and the liver is open to the eye", that is to say, the liver is in charge of the eyes, and the blood and yin and jin substances provided by the liver are continuously infused to the eyes, so that the eyes can be nourished. If the liver is not good, then the blood and its yin and jin will not be able to nourish the eyes, and the eyes will not be nourished, and they will naturally feel dry and even painful. Rubbing the toes relieves dry eyes, because the liver meridian originates from the big toe, so regular stimulation of the big toe can strengthen the qi and blood of the liver meridian, thereby nourishing the eyes and relieving uncomfortable symptoms.
02
Lowers blood pressure – turns the ankles As the saying goes, "people's old feet decay first, and health care first raises feet". It can be said that from the ankle to the soles of the feet, it is an "important area" for health care. For the elderly, turning their ankles often helps to fight aging and lower blood pressure. Do 1 time a day in the morning and evening, generally 100 times each time, people with high blood pressure, generally have the symptoms of ankle stiffness, turn the ankle, can promote blood circulation, long-term persistence, has a good health care effect.
03
Indigestion – wrenching the toes The acupuncture points on the second and third toes of the human being are related to the stomach and intestines, and massaging the inner courtyard points between the toes of the second and third toes can achieve the purpose of strengthening the stomach. For patients with indigestion, bad breath and constipation, it is best to massage this acupoint in the direction of the toes to achieve the purpose of diarrhea and stomach fire; For patients with weak spleen and stomach, diarrhea, cold, or worsening stomach pain after eating raw and cold food, this acupoint can be massaged in the direction of the toes.
04
Cough suppressant – press the little instep When the baby coughs, the parents are in a hurry, it is better to hold the little feet and rub them, especially the instep, which has a better adjuvant treatment effect for those children with wind-heat cough and tonsillitis. Find the area on either side of the base of the big toe on the instep of your baby's feet, which is the reflex area of the tonsils. As long as the tonsils are inflamed, this part will be very painful when pressed, so it is easy to find, and the left and right big toes should be massaged during massage, and one toe should be massaged for 5 minutes. After that, give the child more warm boiled water, or lightly salted boiled water with a little salt, and the child's sore throat will be significantly reduced.
05
Anti-aging – always lift your feet Elevating the feet is also an effective way to exercise the feet, as long as you insist on elevating your feet 2~3 times a day, 5~10 minutes each time, the muscles of the legs will be relaxed, the oxygen supply of the heart and lungs and the blood return will be strengthened, the protective effect on the brain and heart is particularly obvious, and it also has an anti-aging effect.
06
Strengthen the brain and kidneys - scratch the heart of the feet After people enter middle age, most people will show that their thinking is slower than before, and their memory will be reduced to varying degrees, and it is difficult to concentrate on a certain job for a long time, which is a manifestation of brain aging. To keep the brain young, I recommend rubbing the heart of the foot until it is partially warm. After rubbing the soles of the feet, you can also cooperate with the Yongquan points located in the palms of the feet on both sides, which can make people energetic, enhance their physique, and enhance their ability to prevent diseases, which is very helpful for the prevention and treatment of common diseases such as soreness and weakness of the waist and legs, insomnia and dreams, and neurasthenia in the middle and elderly. The innate root of human beings is in the kidney, and the spring is the starting acupuncture point of the kidney meridian, such as the gushing out of the spring water, which is the origin of the essence. Therefore, Yongquan has the effect of nourishing kidney water, reducing deficiency fire, calming the nerves, strengthening the spleen and stomach, benefiting the kidney and diuresis, soothing the liver and brightening the eyes, and strengthening the feet.
07
Lack of kidney qi – heel lifting There is a very important acupuncture point in the center of the foot called Yongquan acupoint, which belongs to the kidney meridian. Qi and blood gushed out from this acupuncture point like a spring, and then nourished the whole body along the meridians. Lifting the heel can not only massage this acupuncture point, but also stretch the kidney meridian on the sole of the foot, which has the effect of stimulating the kidney meridian. When the elderly are deficient in kidney qi, they are prone to listlessness, they can't wake up all the time, and they are still in bad spirits no matter how much they sleep, and they will panic and beat hard when they move. Just simply lift your heels, practice several times a day, for a few minutes each time, and lift the kidney qi. Of course, at around five o'clock in the afternoon, the qi and blood of the kidney meridian are the most vigorous, which will lift the heel and get twice the result with half the effort.
08
Varicose veins – walking on tiptoe Tiptoe exercise is also a simple and easy way to exercise your feet. It has been suggested that the amount of blood squeezed out by the systolic blood pressure of the muscles at the back of the calf produced by tiptoe exercise is roughly equivalent to the output of the heart per stroke. Long-term use of this exercise can relieve body fatigue after standing and sitting for a long time, soreness in the lower limbs and varicose veins caused by poor blood return in the lower limbs. Insist on 2~3 times a day, 5~10 minutes each time.
09
Heart fire - press the soles of the feet The heart is hot, and it is easy to be upset and irritable, sores on the mouth and tongue, and poor sleep. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the heart is on fire and is prone to a loss of "kidney water", so it is necessary to replenish the kidney yin to nourish the yang and achieve the intersection of the heart and kidney. The Yongquan point on the sole of the foot is the starting point of the Kidney Meridian, from which the kidney qi originates. Soaking your feet in warm water, rubbing your heels, and pressing the soles of your feet can achieve the purpose of opening up the kidney meridians and returning to the source of fire, which is helpful for relieving heart fire.
