Yishen Paishen Meridian

Liu Yuanlin, a massage doctor at Renai Branch of the First Affiliated Hospital of Guangxi College of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that regular exercise of the waist can make the waist qi and blood smooth, tonify the kidney and replenish qi; Beating the kidney meridian every day can also play a role in tonifying the kidney.

Liu Yuanlin introduced that tapping the kidney meridian can be carried out at rest or when you feel tired, starting from the root of the inner thigh, tapping or acupressure in the middle part of the inner thigh, and gradually descending to the foot center from top to bottom. Or, alternately pat the waist and back. The method is to stand with your legs shoulder width apart, relax your arms naturally, and turn your waist left and right. At the same time, the arms naturally break with the rotation of the waist, and alternately beat the waist and back for about 5 minutes.

Tang Zhimin, director of the Department of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Guangxi People's Hospital, said that Shenshu and Mingmen points on the back can be tapped properly to tonify the kidney.

Percussion can strengthen the kidney.

"Why is it easy for people to lose their teeth when they are old? Because it is really kidney deficiency. " Tang Zhimin introduced that "the tooth is the end of the bone" also belongs to the "innate creation" of the kidney. Tooth loss in the elderly indicates that renal function is declining.

In fact, the maintenance of teeth will also affect the function of the kidney. Therefore, tonifying the kidney can also be used as a health care method for tapping teeth. Methods: Sit or stand, relax, and then knock the upper and lower teeth regularly, frequency 1 sec, time 10 min. Long-term persistence is beneficial to kidney consolidation.
