When summer arrives, in addition to the rising temperature, there is also "fluctuating" blood pressure.
Generally speaking, high blood pressure in summer usually has these two characteristics: 1. Frequent access to air-conditioned rooms, resulting in large fluctuations in blood pressure; 2. If the weather is hot, take antihypertensive drugs, and do not replenish water in time, blood pressure may be too low.
If your blood pressure has already experienced the above two conditions, it is likely to induce cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and in severe cases, death.
Therefore, patients with high blood pressure should pay special attention to blood pressure regulation in summer.
Today, I will introduce to you a good way to regulate blood pressure - rubbing Baihui acupoints!
Baihui acupoint, the acupoint of "resurrection from the dead".
Baihui acupoint belongs to the Du Mai, in the center of the top of the head, is the highest point of the human body, and the current hair is 5 inches straight up in the middle.
You can simply fold the ear hole forward, and the tips of the two ears go straight to the midpoint of the line, or you can press the two thumbs against the two ear holes, and the two hands are pointed to the top of the head, and the place where the fingertips touch is the Baihui acupoint.
Why is it called Baihui Acupoint?
This is because the head is the meeting of the suns, and all the yang meridians must converge on the head, and the Baihui acupoint is the core of the head, where the hundred veins meet, hence the name.
The knowledge of the hundred pulses means that the hundred pulses can be affected by stimulating this point.
Therefore, the "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Shishengjing" says that the Baihui acupoint is "the master of all diseases", which means that the range of diseases that can be treated by the Baihui acupoint is very wide.
Historical Records. The Biography of Bian Que Cang Gong Train" contains:
"Bian Que is over. Prince Yu died...... Hearing that the prince died unfortunately, the minister can live...... Bian Que is to make his disciple Ziyang vigorously needle stone, in order to take the outer three yang and five meetings. There is a time, Prince Su. It is to make the leopard iron for five, and boil it with eight minus, and iron it under two sides. Prince-ups. It is more suitable for yin and yang, but it is better to take the soup for twenty years and return to the past. Therefore, the world is full of people who can live and die. Bian Que said: "The more people can live and die, the more people can make their ears rise." ”
Bian Que's method of bringing the dead back to life is to acupuncture the Sanyang Wuhui acupoint, that is, the Baihui acupoint.
Note: "Sanyang Wuhui" refers to the three yang meridians of the hands and feet, as well as the qi and blood of the five internal organs and six internal organs, all converge in the Baihui acupoint.
