4 places in spring, no disease for a year! Where to cover? How long to cover? How to cover? Come in and find out!

In spring, you can get the most out of your health care according to the season!

As the old saying goes, "spring covers autumn frost, no miscellaneous diseases", it makes sense, but the position of "covering" is very particular, and it is by no means as simple as "not reducing clothes".

Cover the 4 positions in spring, and the health effect is twice the result with half the effort!

Spring is a season of high incidence of cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases such as hypertension, heart disease, cerebral thrombosis, and stroke.

1. It is conducive to regulating the constant temperature of the human body, because no matter how the season changes, the human body temperature must always be kept at about 37 degrees, and the human body maintains a constant temperature:

One is regulated by the constriction of blood vessels and the sweating of the skin;

The second is to maintain it by increasing or decreasing clothes.

If you lose your clothes too early, you will disrupt the regulation of the body's constant temperature and affect your health.

2. "Spring cover" is conducive to resisting wind and cold. The human body, like nature, begins to revive in the spring, when skin cells that had been in "hibernation" begin to become active and pores open. At this time, when the cold wind hits, it can drive straight into the body and make people feel cold.

3. "Spring cover" is conducive to adapting to the changes of the seasons, in early spring, there are often cold snaps and strong cold air southward, resulting in a sharp drop in temperature.

In this case, if you don't "cover" a little, it is difficult to adapt to this change of cold and warm, and many people may even suffer from colds, tracheitis, arthritis and other diseases.

"Spring covers autumn frost" means that the temperature has just warmed up in spring, so don't take off your cotton clothes too early; Autumn temperatures are a little cooler, so don't add clothes too early.

How many days should the "spring cover" be covered?

Experts said that under normal circumstances, even if the temperature rises, it will take about 7 days to cover, and the frail or elderly need to cover it for more than 14 days before the body can adapt.

If you take off your cotton clothes too early, your head, lower limbs, hands, throat, etc. are all easy to get cold due to unadaptability in the temperature change of one cold and one hot, thus inducing diseases.

Medical meteorology shows that the peak incidence of many diseases is closely related to the southward movement of cold air and the duration of cooling, such as colds, indigestion, glaucoma, myocardial infarction, stroke, etc.

The director of the emergency department of the Urumqi General Hospital of the Lanzhou Military Region said:

Historically, ancient physicians have emphasized "spring covering", that is, "spring is not busy and reducing clothes". The so-called folk "leave the cotton clothes in February, and the pear blossom snow in March", "eat the Dragon Boat Festival dumplings, and then send the winter clothes" is what it says.

Traditional medicine of the motherland believes that "spring covering" is not only a health preservation need to comply with the growth of yang energy, but also a good self-care prescription to prevent diseases. Sun Simiao once said: "Spring should not be thinly clothed, it will cause typhoid fever, cholera, indigestion, and headaches." ”

Nowadays, people have long realized that if they take off their cotton clothes too early, they are very susceptible to cold, and cold will hurt their lungs, and they are prone to influenza, acute bronchitis, pneumonia and other diseases.

Spring is also the season when infectious diseases such as encephalitis, measles, and mumps are common. Although the occurrence of these diseases is related to bacterial and viral infections, the onset of the disease after infection is largely determined by the individual's physique and daily conditioning. If you are not busy undressing, you will reduce the chance of developing the disease.

Grasp the temperature, 15°C is the critical temperature of spring cover. Studies have shown that for most elderly people or those who are frail and need spring mulching, 15°C can be regarded as the critical temperature for covering and not covering.

In other words, when the temperature is consistently above 15°C and relatively stable, it can be left uncovered.

Spring cover is not wearing a cotton jacket, but it is easy to make the body weak when covering the whole body, and the position of the cover is focused:

In early spring, the wrists, waist, eyes, calves and navel are the four areas that need to be covered the most.

Guarding the blood of the whole body

The heart is in charge of the blood vessels throughout the body and warms the whole body by transporting qi and blood. The original acupuncture points are the acupuncture points that are in charge of the vitality of each viscera and the driving force of life, which can strengthen the viscera. Therefore, the first key part of the spring cover is the Shenmen acupoint.

Chest pain, constipation, anxiety, palpitations, insomnia, loss of appetite and other diseases are one of the important acupoints on the human hand Shaoyin Heart Sutra.

When you are usually fine, you can tap the Shenmen acupoint 30 times with the tip of your thumb to remove irritability and calm your mind. You don't need to use too much force when kneading this acupoint, and you don't have to pursue a feeling of soreness.

The kidneys are good, and everything will be fine

The waist and eyes are also an important part of the spring cover. The root of the body's yang energy is in the kidneys, and the waist is the home of the kidneys, and when the kidney yang is deficient, the waist will be sore, soft and afraid of cold, frequent urination or mental drowsiness and fatigue. Massaging the waist and kidney Yu acupoints can nourish yin and yang, nourish the kidneys and strengthen the waist.

In addition to tapping, you can make a fist with both hands, place the protrusion of the metacarpophalangeal joint of the index finger on the kidney points on both sides, and first press and knead 9 times in a clockwise direction, and then 9 times in a counterclockwise direction, and so on for 36 times in a row.

Gather yang qi, less pain in a year!

Many elderly people are prone to migraine or lower abdominal pain, and even nausea and vomiting eye pain, which belongs to liver yang deficiency.

The acupoint is the end of the slit between the fourth toe and the little toe, and the method of taking the acupoint is to push the fingers from the slit between the four toes and the little toe to the instep of the foot, and when it is pushed to the edge of the bone, it is the ashiki point.

The yang auxiliary point is located on the outside of the calf, four inches above the ankle joint on the outside of the foot.

Activating fetal breath can prolong life!

Traditional Chinese medicine calls the navel as the Shenque acupoint, which can encourage the spleen and stomach to be yang, especially for some people who are afraid of cold and love diarrhea in the stomach, they should pay special attention to the warmth of this part.

Kneading method

Every night before going to bed, on an empty stomach, rub your hands together, fold your hands on top of your navel from the left to the right, and knead clockwise (the opposite for women), 360 times each time.

 Accumulation method

Sit upright, relax, close your eyes slightly, and use your right hand to idle, and your mind will gather the true qi energy in the universe to the umbilicus, and feel the warmth as the degree.

 Abide by the law

Relax, sit cross-legged, close your eyes, remove distracting thoughts, focus on the mind for more than half an hour each time, and after a long time, you will concentrate into the air pocket, the true qi in the acupoint will occur, and the fetal breath will slowly start.

Spring covers autumn frostThese four words embody the wisdom of Chinese medicine for 5,000 years and the expectations of the people.

If you cover it according to the method, the overall resistance of the body will be much better, and the body will be smooth all year round!
