A Book That Addresses Women's Health Issues

Chapter 43
Taichong point is the original point of the Liver Meridian. "Original" means "origin and driving force". It can be treated by taking the "original point" on the meridian. Due to the high pressure of work, a 30-year-old woman will inevitably sulk over some trivial matters.Compared with male friends, women's suffocation is mostly due to the failure of liver qi to vent out, which can easily lead to long-term accumulation of grievances, depression and anger, and stagnation in the liver. This is called "stagnation of liver qi" in Chinese medicine. "Depressed" should press the Taichong point more. For female friends, stagnation of liver qi is the most likely to cause breast hyperplasia.Once, a 30-year-old female patient came to see me.She said that her breasts were often swollen and painful, and she went to the hospital for an examination and found that it was breast hyperplasia.But after returning home, I took a lot of western medicine, but the effect was not good.Especially now the breast pain is more severe in the week before menstruation, and menstruation is also unstable.After carefully reading her medical records, I checked her pulse and found that her condition was caused by stagnation of liver qi.In her case, the main method is to soothe the liver and regulate qi, promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.In addition to taking medicine properly, you should also massage the acupoints on the Liver Meridian, especially the Taichong acupoint.

Taichong point is also known as "Xiaoqi point", that is to say, every time you are angry or unhappy, press down on Taichong point with the belly of your thumb, gradually increase the force, hold it down for 1 minute, and then slowly retract the force. open.Repeatedly press Taichong acupoint in this way, and press each foot 3 to 5 times.You will feel refreshed, happy, and breathless.Why is Taichong Point so magical?Because Taichong point is the original point of the liver meridian, "original" means "origin and driving force". All can be treated by taking the "original point" on the meridians.Taichong point is not everyone's "qi-reducing point". Taichong point is most suitable for those female friends who love to be sullen. For those who are fine after being angry, this point does not work.The Taichong point is located behind the junction of the big toe and the second toe on the instep, and in the depression in front of the highest point of the instep.When massaging, use the pulp of the thumb of the left hand to knead the right Taichong point for 1 minute, it is advisable to feel soreness; then change the pulp of the right thumb and knead the left Taichong point for 1 minute.Although Taichong point has a good effect of eliminating qi, we can't use it as an excuse to get angry. We still have to remember the song "Don't get angry"-life is like a play, and we get together because of fate.It's not easy to support each other until old age, should we cherish it more?It makes no sense to freak out for insignificant issues.I am not angry when others are angry, and there is no one to replace me when I get sick...
