The human body is very sensitive, and if the meridians are blocked, it will send a lot of uncomfortable signals to call for help. Here we will take a specific look at what uncomfortable distress signals the human body will send if the meridians are blocked!
All kinds of signals represent different situations, and you can choose the most suitable method and acupuncture points according to your own situation.
▌The primary feeling of hyperplasia meridian blockage: pain
It's still the same sentence: if it hurts, it doesn't work, and if it doesn't hurt, it doesn't hurt. The first feeling of meridian blockage is pain, for example, sometimes we have inexplicable pain, which means that the meridians are blocked here.
1. There is a difference between pain and pain
Pain and pain are two different concepts, although both are related to the blockage of the meridians, but there are still some differences in degree.
For example, when we are pricked, the immediate sensation is called "pain";
If you press the injured area again, the sensation is called "pain".
1. What is pain?
The word "pain" is the word "winter" under "疒", which generally refers to the discomfort caused by the invasion of cold evil in the meridians, generally when the disease is first on, the meridians are disturbed by external evils, and the body automatically sends out a signal of "pain" in order to recruit more qi and blood rescue.
However, the situation of "unobstructed" and "blocked" has not yet formed, so the "pain" is usually fleeting, in the form of dots or scatters, and if there is no blockage, the pain may not be traceable after the pain. In this case, as long as we strengthen our protection, we can heal ourselves or not recur.
2. What is pain?
The word pain is a Yong character under "疒". In ancient times, Yong means "tunnel" and "corridor", which can be understood as the disease of the meridians, the internal passage of the human body. In fact, pain is a signal sent by the meridians that a lot of qi and blood are gathered and stagnant.
"If it hurts, it doesn't work, and if it doesn't hurt", that's the truth. Therefore, the pain is generally felt only when pressed and touched, and the pain can be repeated, and the area is larger than the pain.
2. "The first illness is in the meridians", "the long-term illness and long-term pain are in the network"
On the human body, acupuncture points are "points", meridians are "lines", and meridians are "faces".
In general, "pain" is the initial stage of meridian blockage, located in the "meridian", and "pain" is the further aggravation of the meridian blockage, which spreads to the "meridian".
When encountering pain problems, you can take a combination of points and surfaces to dredge the meridians. If the area is small, you can use the Ah is acupoint, that is, where there is pain, you can massage it, and if the area is slightly larger, you can use moxibustion, so that the meridians will slowly pass.
3. Identify Ah Shi acupoint for low back pain
Generally speaking, low back pain pays more attention to local moxibustion or massage on the painful area, which is what we often call moxibustion and acupuncture. The principle of taking acupoints is that where there is pain, it is used as an acupoint.
For example, if you have a herniated intervertebral disc, focus on moxibustion or massage A is acupoint, the effect is often good, and you can also add ring jumps, Yangling Spring, Hanging Bell, and Kunlun.
If you don't know how to take acupoints during moxibustion, you might as well focus on the A is acupoint (which pain moxibustion is), and at the same time, you can also moxibustion The meridians where the A is acupoint are located, follow the meridians and moxibustion! This is often relatively simple and effective for some friends who are new to moxibustion.
▌Pain: Cold
In addition to the cold head, some other parts of the body are cold, such as the most common is cold hands and feet, which is often a signal that the meridians are blocked. Because a person's body temperature is determined by the transport of qi and blood, the body temperature will be normal when the qi and blood are vigorous. Where there is cold, where the meridians may be blocked, it is difficult for qi and blood to reach.
In addition, there is also asymmetry in body temperature and sweating, such as some people with hemiplegia, the meridians are seriously blocked, and the healthy parts and unhealthy parts will have a normal body temperature on one side and a cold side on the other.
The impact of meridian blockage on the skin surface, in addition to the feeling of cold and heat, can also be manifested as skin pores, hair follicles clogged and other problems, blood gas does not arrive, the garbage in the pores cannot be discharged, the pores are blocked, and the hair follicles naturally do not grow well.
Therefore, if the above problems occur in a certain part, you can find the meridians in the meridian diagram and carry out moxibustion conditioning, and after they are dredged, many problems will be eliminated.
▌ Heat impassable: hot
The heat caused by the blockage of the meridians is mainly manifested as low-grade fever, dryness, or abnormal sweating in some parts of the body. This is caused by the blockage of the meridians in the body and the inability of heat to be dissipated through normal channels.
In addition to the redness, swelling, heat, and pain caused by external evils and the blockage of the meridians where the fever is located, low-grade fever may generally come from the connected meridians.
Qi and blood run in the body over and over again, if this path is not passable, it will look for a breakthrough from the nearby meridians, and the first thing that is easy to affect is the meridians that have the relationship between the surface and the inside or the relationship between the child and the mother, so that the meridians are hot.
For example, low-grade fever in the head is not necessarily a problem with the bladder meridian, but may be caused by insufficient or poor blood in the kidney meridian on the surface of it.
▌ The meridians are completely blocked: numbness and wood
The further development of the meridians is numbness or numbness. For example, if we sit cross-legged for too long, the lower limbs will not be able to flow qi and blood, and it will be painful; Then, the meridians are blocked, the qi and blood are completely blocked, the legs will be numb, and only by changing the sitting posture can the qi and blood flow be smooth to restore consciousness.
The symptoms of numbness and numbness often appear together, but in traditional Chinese medicine, their causes are different, "hemp is qi deficiency, wood is blood deficiency", if the numbness is heavy, it means that the qi is insufficient, and if the wood is heavy, it means that the blood is deficient.
When numbness occurs in the limbs, it is necessary to pay attention, especially for patients with high blood pressure, we must pay attention to dredging the meridians in time, which can reduce the probability of stroke.
▌Slowing down of blood supply: acid
The sour body indicates that the supply of qi and blood in the meridians is too slow and cannot meet the needs of the body.
After strenuous exercise, such as a sprint race, the body will become sour or weak afterwards, because the sprint requires more qi and blood supply, which exceeds the limit of the normal body's qi and blood supply, resulting in the inability to supply qi and blood and sourness.
Under normal conditions, consumption and replenishment are a balance, so health sports are never strenuous exercises, but exercises that balance the supply and demand of qi and blood, such as tai chi, channeling, etc., and Western medicine also highly recommends aerobic exercises, such as jogging, flexibility exercises, etc.
If a certain part of the body is sour for no reason, or if it is sour with light exercise, it means that the meridians of that part are not smooth and the supply of qi and blood slows down. At this time, if you tap and massage the meridians where they are located, you may find potential symptoms such as pain, swelling, and swelling.
▌ Two forms of meridian blockage: swelling and swelling
1. Meridian blockage can be tangible, which is swelling, which is often caused by blood stasis.
To reduce swelling, you have to promote blood circulation and eliminate stasis, which can be regulated by scraping or cupping. The purple or black "sha" that many people scrape out and pull out is actually blood stasis in the meridians.
At the same time, it can also be combined with moxibustion, such as the Xuehai acupoint on the inside of the knee. The blood of the sea of blood refers to the blood of the spleen, and the sea refers to the blood born of the spleen meridian gathered here, and its qi and blood energy is as vast as the sea. Xuehai acupoint is located in the spleen meridian, the spleen is the main blood, with the function of controlling the blood not to flow disorderly and not to stasis, regular moxibustion can promote the circulation of qi and blood, and has an auxiliary therapeutic effect on eliminating bruising.
Second, the meridian blockage can also be invisible, which is bloating, which is caused by qi stagnation.
Flatulence is usually a "vortex" formed when the meridians are not running smoothly. If a certain part of the body is swollen, you can first follow the meridians and moxibustion on the meridians of the part to find the pain point and then perform moxibustion.
Secondly, you can also find the pain points in the Sanjiao Sutra, the "Difficult Sutra" says: "Sanjiao main qi", all "qi diseases" can be treated through the Sanjiao meridian, for example, pinching the Zhongzhu acupoint can treat calf cramps, and the branch groove acupoint can treat hypochondria pain.
The three focal qi is mainly concentrated between the neck and the upper arm. You can use your hand as a rake and gently rake it down from the neck and shoulders to the back of your arms until you reach your ring finger. Then where it hurts, focus on rubbing it for a while, so that you can straighten out the three focal qi.
10 tips to unclog the meridians

The cubital fossa is a part of the dense meridians, which are passed through the lung meridian, the pericardial meridian and the heart meridian, and patting the elbow fossa can discharge the fire and toxins of the heart and lungs.

It is best to pat once a week, and generally 3~5 times the reactants will be significantly reduced, and the toxins will be almost cleaned up. If you are afraid of pain, gently patting until it becomes red can also pass through the meridians and promote the flow of qi and blood.
Recommendation: Drink a glass of warm water immediately after the pat to speed up detoxification, and do not take a shower on the day.
