An acupuncture point to solve neck and shoulder soreness, stiff neck, a must-see for people who bow their heads!
Today, Su Mu teaches you an acupuncture point that quickly relieves muscle tension, spasm, and muscle fiber entanglement, quickly removes the cause, and effectively treats neck muscle tension, stiff neck, and pain.
The name of this acupuncture point is called the elbow hip, which means the edge of the bone, and the elbow is the edge of the bone of the elbow.
We first bend the elbow, do the action of extreme elbow flexion, and at the outer end of the horizontal stripe of the elbow, find an acupuncture point called Quchi acupoint, which is the acupuncture point of the large intestine meridian of Hand Yangming.
After finding it, about the width of a thumb upwards from this acupuncture point, 0.5 inches on the outside, it will touch our humerus, which is the outer side of the upper arm bone.
When we hold our thumbs up and touch the edge of this bone, we will feel that there is a bone ridge on top of this bone, which is our elbow point.
When the thumb is placed on the edge of this bone ridge, a very noticeable soreness is felt, and this soreness can also occur in normal people who do not have neck and shoulder discomfort.
If you are a patient with stiff neck or neck and shoulder discomfort, neck and shoulder muscle tension and spasm, this acupuncture point on your same side will have very obvious soreness and even tingling.
Patients who often have neck and shoulder discomfort or recurrent stiff neck attacks often have obvious tendon knots in this area, that is, you can feel the pimples.
So what should we do? Sumu suggests that you can do a little kneading on this acupuncture point.
Thumb fingers hold the elbow acupoint, take the acupuncture point as the center, rotate the point kneading, in this state of soreness, soreness, and tingling at the most intense, we also do neck and shoulder activities.
According to the acupuncture points, let our neck slowly start from a small area and gradually increase, the range of activity With such a slow action, the muscles begin to relax, the tension of muscle fibers begins to loosen, the pain can be quickly reduced, and the tension function of our neck muscles is limited, and it can also be quickly eliminated.
Note that we are pointing on the same side, which means that if you have pain in the neck and shoulder muscles on either side, you will click on the elbow point on which side.
