Spleen meridian blockage - emaciation or obesity, poor digestion, stomach bloating, vomiting, limb fatigue and numbness, drowsiness, skin lesions, poor limb movement......
There is a saying, "The spleen meridian is unblocked, and it is difficult to get on the body when seriously ill", why is it that as long as the "spleen meridian" is not blocked, it is difficult for any serious illness to get on the body?
1. The spleen is the source of life
People usually think that the power source of life comes from the heart, but in fact, the spleen hiding in the dark is the power source of life, it is the first power to promote the whole body circulation, followed by the kidney, and then the liver, so the heart is not the power source of life, and the spleen that is not looked down upon is the first energy motor to promote the life cycle.
However, in reality, many Western medicine doctors have never taken the spleen seriously, saying that it will be removed, and they are completely unaware of the importance of the spleen in the whole body. I don't know that the spleen is not only an energy motor for the whole body, but also an aircraft carrier-level sterilizer for sterilization and virus elimination, so in a sense, the spleen is more important than the kidney.
Others mistakenly believe that the power of life force is the kidneys, which is wrong, because only the substances secreted by the spleen are forced to the kidneys, and the kidneys have the power to filter impurities from the blood.
Of course, the kidneys affect the spleen, but the spleen in turn affects the kidneys, congenital in the spleen, acquired in the spleen, after the person is born, the spleen is the two small pieces, until the age of eighteen adults, it is still that size, there has been no change, the kinetic energy of growth depends on the energy supply of the spleen, only when the age increases, the spleen is slightly thickened, by the age of fifty, our spleen has been honeycomb, which has no substance - energy.
If the spleen is filled again, the kidney water will naturally rise to the head, and the person will feel like he has returned to his youth. The spleen and liver complement each other, and the spleen also stores blood. After splenectomy, the liver loses the moisture of the spleen, the liver will burst, and the person will be tired all over, often suffering from blood poison diseases, and always have pimples on the skin.
Attentive mothers know that when the baby is born and landed, the crying sound is particularly loud, and the sound can be transmitted far away, why can the sound be transmitted far away? Its main strength is derived from the spleen.
2. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that if the spleen is diseased, half of the person will be wasted
The health of the spleen directly affects the functional state of the brain, brain failure, which is secretly the depletion of the spleen; Behind kidney depletion is also spleen failure, so spleen failure is more terrible than kidney failure, so the spleen is more important than the kidney! Kidney problems affect the spleen – a problem with the spleen directly affects the kidneys.
Behind heart failure is also the secret spleen failure, and all serious diseases are rooted in spleen failure! Many people have heard the term "deficiency is not supplemented", but in fact, the main point of "deficiency is not supplemented" falls on the spleen, and the final result of a serious illness is that the spleen is damaged.
3. The spleen and stomach are the source of energy for the human body
They are responsible for the absorption and distribution of energy, and the physiological function of the viscera in traditional Chinese medicine believes that the biochemistry of the human body's qi, blood and fluid depends on the nutrient subtle substances of the food digested and absorbed by the spleen.
Therefore, there is a maxim in ancient medical scientists, "the spleen is prosperous and all diseases are eliminated", and the thought is in the spleen and becomes in the heart. If the temper is strong, the blood will be vigorous; If the spleen is weak, the appetite will be reduced, and the complexion will be pale and unpretentious, and if the spleen is weak, the blood will be less, and if the blood is less, there will be no life.
4. The spleen is the foundation of the day after tomorrow, nourishing the whole body
The deficiency of righteous qi in the internal organs is also closely related to the spleen. Generally speaking, a weak spleen and stomach is the root cause of many diseases. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the spleen has the function of taking blood and blood, and at the same time, the spleen and stomach are both in the middle of the heart, which is the official of the decimation, and the stomach is the same as the inside.
Righteousness originates from the essence of the water valley, that is, the stomach qi and vitality discussed by Li Dongyuan. The rise and fall of stomach qi and vitality are intrinsically related to the strength of the spleen's function. If the righteous qi is insufficient, all diseases are lurking, therefore, ancient doctors believed that "all diseases are born from the failure of the spleen and stomach".
5. The spleen is the largest immune organ in the body
It accounts for 25% of the total number of lymphoid tissues in the whole body, contains a large number of lymphocytes and macrophages, and is the center of the body's cellular immunity and humoral immunity, and exerts anti-tumor effects through a variety of mechanisms. First of all, the main function of the spleen is to filter and store blood. It is the "blood bank" of the human body, and when the human body is resting and quiet, it stores blood;
When in a state of stress such as exercise, blood loss, and hypoxia, it discharges blood into the blood circulation to increase blood volume; Secondly, the spleen is like a "filter", when germs, antigens, foreign bodies, and protozoa appear in the blood, macrophages and lymphocytes in the spleen will eat them; The spleen can also produce immune substances such as immunoglobulin and complement to exert immune effects.
Ancient physicians believed that "all diseases are caused by the failure of the spleen and stomach", so in daily life, we should pay attention to the protection of the spleen and stomach, pay attention to diet and nutrition, and take into account the spleen and stomach when treating diseases.
When people are free, remember to massage the spleen meridian more, because the "spleen meridian" is often unblocked, and it is difficult to get on the body for serious illness, acute illness, and strange diseases. How to massage the spleen meridian, catch the cow to catch the cow's nose, massage the spleen meridian first according to the easiest to block, which places are the easiest to block? I said that the place where the joints are the places where the qi and blood pass through the meridians, and the joints here are easy to form pressure and cause blockage of the qi, blood and meridians.
1. "Sitting for a long time hurts the flesh"
Traditional Chinese medicine believes that "sitting for a long time hurts the flesh", and if the muscles are not exercised, it will cause spleen deficiency, and "hurting the flesh" is also hurting the spleen. Tapping the spleen meridian more often can enhance the movement function of the spleen meridian and replenish the vitality lost due to sitting.
2. Small methods for judging spleen deficiency
1. Look at the eyelids: If the eyes are usually big, bright and bright, but now the eyelids are drooping down, and the eyes look unenergetic, it means that the spleen is deficient. Because traditional Chinese medicine believes that the eyelids are also dominated by the spleen, if the eyelids are loosened, it means that there is a problem with the function of the main muscles of the spleen. However, this condition is more common in older people.
2. Observe the tongue: If the tongue is pale in color and there are tooth marks on the tongue, it means that there is a problem with the spleen, and it is best to go to the hospital for examination as soon as possible, or seize the time to recuperate.
3. Knock the spleen meridian method
1. Sitting: The sitting method of pressing the ankle of one foot against the other thigh, that is, the leg setting method. This sitting method is conducive to the massage of the spleen meridians. Because the spleen meridian originates from the cryptophallic point at the medial end of the big toe of the foot, then goes up along the medial midline of the calf, then enters the anterior edge of the inner thigh, and then enters the abdomen. This sitting position exposes the spleen meridians to facilitate massage.
2. Tapping method: When patting, you should hold an empty fist, and use the end of the metacarpophalangeal joint to pat it all the way from top to bottom, with moderate force, and you can use a little force when slapping the spleen meridian of the thigh. Both legs should be beaten, each side to beat for 10 minutes is better, the time of beating is naturally between 9:00 a.m. ~ 11:00 a.m., when the qi and blood flow into the spleen meridian. The number of hits depends on how much time you have.
3. Efficacy: When you go to work, you can use the work gap to coil your legs into a "4" shape, and then beat them all the way down along the route of the spleen meridian, which can have the effect of strengthening the spleen.
4. Tips: If a pain point is found in the process of patting, indicating that there is a blockage in the spleen meridian, then you can use the method of tapping to press and knead it to open up the blocked acupuncture points, so as to smooth the qi and blood of the entire spleen meridian.
Fourth, push the calf spleen meridian
If you find that the pain point is just pressed on the spleen meridian in the process of pushing the calf spleen meridian, then you must rub the calf spleen meridian more to really work, that is, find the 4 acupuncture points on the calf spleen meridian Yinling Spring Acupoint, Diji Acupoint, Leaky Valley Acupoint, and Sanyin Jiao Acupoint to push. If you can't find it and don't want to remember that much detail, you simply push it up and down the medial edge of your tibia. That acupoint is sensitive, and whichever acupoint is painful, you will rub it more.
In fact, rubbing the spleen meridian is both fat and thin. Kneading it can make thin people gain weight and fat people lose weight. In short, anyone will feel happy after kneading.
Anyone who knows a little bit about Chinese medicine knows that the spleen is the foundation of nurture and nurture. Therefore, the acupuncture points on the spleen meridian are particularly important for the maintenance of the acquired body. The five acupuncture points on the spleen meridian to be introduced today are all powerful and can be called great medicine.
1. Passage of the nose - hidden white acupoint
The Yinbai acupoint is the first acupuncture point of the Spleen Meridian. It is located about 1 mm next to the toenail of the big toe. The greatest function of this acupuncture point is to stop bleeding. Therefore, patients who usually have bleeding disorders such as gastrointestinal bleeding, bleeding gums, and nosebleeds can use it more for treatment. The method is moxibustion, 15 minutes per acupoint every day. Secondly, this acupuncture point also has the function of opening the nose. Therefore, patients with allergic rhinitis can pinch this acupoint to relieve the symptoms.
2. Relieve stomach pain - Taibai acupoint
This point is located at the medial border of the foot, where the depression is posterior inferior to the small head of the first metatarsal. This acupoint has a good effect on relieving stomach pain caused by various reasons, and can also relieve poor appetite and bloating. The method of stimulation is kneading, and it is advisable to feel a slight pain, 120 times a day.
3. Suppressing stomach acid - Gongsun acupoint
Gongsun acupoint is the meridian point of the spleen meridian and one of the eight vein intersection points. The function of this acupuncture point is to inhibit the secretion of gastric acid. This is perfect for people who have had stomach problems in the past, or who want to lose weight and endure hunger. Therefore, it has a slimming function. The stimulation method is kneading, preferably to feel soreness, 120 times a day.
4. Anti-inflammatory - Shangqiu acupoint
One of the greatest uses of Shangqiu is to reduce inflammation. Many inflammations of the lower body, such as cystitis, urethritis, pelvic inflammatory disease, etc., can be relieved by rubbing the Shangqiu acupoint. 120 times a day. The reason why Shangqiu acupoint can reduce inflammation is that it corresponds to the lymphatic reflex area of the middle and lower body in the plantar reflex area. In addition, Shangqiu, as a large acupoint of the spleen meridian, can regulate the whole body, especially the spleen meridian qi and blood, improve the quality of blood circulation, and help the discharge of inflammatory and painful substances.
5. Sanyin Jiao - gynecological disease
The three yin points are 3 inches above the inner ankle of the foot, that is, the place where the four horizontal fingers are. "Three Yin Jiao" is the point where the three yin meridians of the liver, kidney, and spleen meet, so this one acupuncture point can treat the diseases on the three meridians, which can really be described as a multi-purpose acupoint. The Sanyin Jiao acupoint is also the key point for the treatment of gynecological diseases. Whether gynecological problems occur in the adnexa, uterus, ovaries or breasts, they can be treated with the Sanyin Jiao acupoint, and it will be very painful and sensitive to rub the acupoint when there is a disease. Rubbing the three yin points every day, moxibustion can solve these problems. The Sanyin Jiao acupoint can also relieve menstrual cramps.
6. Leaky valley hole - it is not good for urination
From the Sanyin intersection acupoint to the lower edge of the inner side of the foot bone up 3 inches, it is the leaky valley acupoint. "Leaking grain" means that the millet leaks out, that is, what is eaten in the stomach is not digested well, the nutrients are not absorbed, and it is discharged again, which is called "the grain does not melt". And rubbing more leaky grain points can be treated. It can also treat poor urination and is very effective for prostate problems in men.
7. Ground machine acupoint - gastrointestinal transport
Walking up against the shins, the place directly opposite the highest point on the leg and stomach is the Jiji acupoint. "Earth machine" means that the earth is full of life. Therefore, kneading machine points can enhance the transportation function of the entire stomach and intestines. Diji acupoints are very helpful to the pancreas, such as chronic pancreatitis and diabetes can be prevented and treated by kneading the ground machine acupoints.
8. Yinling Spring - dispel dampness
I walked up along the tibia, and when I got stuck under my knee socket, I couldn't move, and that place was Yinling Spring. This acupoint is an important point for dispelling dampness, and when the human body is damp, it is easy to breed bacteria, cause edema, and various inflammations, including dermatitis, rashes, etc. In addition, the spleen is the source of phlegm, which is responsible for moisture, and if there is too much moisture to be transported, it will become phlegm drink. Therefore, in order to fundamentally solve the problem of phlegm, it is necessary to strengthen the spleen, and insist on rubbing more Yinling Spring points every day.
