Many people over the age of forty have loose overhanging muscles in their upper arms, especially in their left arms. Kneading it like cotton wool, rubbing the fingers and pimpling fat particles, the pain is unbearable with a little force. This condition is actually a manifestation of insufficient blood supply to the heart and poor flow of qi and blood.
If this happens, if it is not remedied and allowed to continue to develop, the blood supply to the heart will become less and less, and the risk of angina, myocardial infarction, and coronary heart disease will increase later!
What to do?
Rong Peijing, a researcher at the Institute of Acupuncture and Moxibustion, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences
Strengthen the heart and prevent coronary heart disease
Pat the inside of your arm
For the situation mentioned at the beginning of the article, the remedy is very simple, kneading the arm every day can pinch the loose muscles, the heart blood supply will also be smooth, and the chest will no longer be tight and short of breath.
Why does this work?
Rong Peijing said:
The inside of the arm is the part of the hand that follows the Shaoyin Heart Sutra. The Heart Sutra originates in the heart and follows a path in the body and on the surface of the body, which runs along the back edge of the inside of the arm to the little finger.
Heart meridian is directly related to cardiovascular disease, and is mainly used to treat diseases of the heart, chest, and consciousness, as well as pain at the posterior edge of the inner side of the upper limbs, palm heat, etc. Abnormal heart meridians and qi will produce symptoms such as heartache, dry throat, thirst, cold forearms, and numbness.
In addition, the Heart Sutra can also stabilize the mind, regulate the mind, and treat insomnia, forgetfulness, neurasthenia and other neurological and mental diseases.
