How to open up the bladder meridian yourself

The bladder meridian is an important meridian in the human body. If the bladder meridian can be opened up normally, it will be beneficial to the health of the body and have a good detoxification effect. We know that if the meridians of the body are not smooth, it will not only cause discomfort to the human body, but may also cause disease problems over time. Therefore, regular massage and acupressure will help to open up the meridians, promote blood circulation, and promote the unblocking of meridians.

How to open up the bladder meridian yourself

The bladder meridian is the largest detoxification channel in the human body. It transmits evil toxins all the time. Other ways of detoxification, such as bowel movements, sweating through pores, expelling dampness and toxins from athlete's foot, expelling phlegm and turbidity from the trachea, as well as tears, acne, vomiting, etc., are also ways of detoxification, but they are all local and segmented, and finally they will be merged into the bladder meridian. Let us make an analogy. The bladder meridian is like the various sewage pipes in a city, which collect sewage from various enterprises and residences, and finally converge into the bladder (sewage storage station) for discharge. Therefore, in order to remove toxins from the body, the bladder meridian must be unobstructed. The best time to stimulate the bladder meridian should be 3 - 5 pm. This is the time when the bladder meridian is in season, and the qi and blood in the bladder meridian are at their most prosperous. If you can activate it through massage or movement, and unblock the qi and blood, it will have a very good health-care effect on the human body. In particular, the bladder meridian is a meridian that can go to the brain, so qi and blood can be easily transported to the brain. Therefore, at this time, whether studying or working, the efficiency is very high.

The following two actions can stimulate the bladder meridian for better detoxification

1. Sit up first, stretch your legs, inhale and raise your hands above your head, exhale, use your arms to move your upper body forward and downward, until your hands can touch your toes, hold for 5 breaths, then inhale and use your hands to move your upper body upward and return to normal, repeat.

2. Cradle position: Lie flat on your back, bend your legs, hold your calves with both hands, and rock back and forth. Do this from 3 to 5 pm every day for 15 minutes. This can massage the bladder meridian very well.

This meridian branch emerges from the top of the head to the upper corner of the ear. The straight meridian runs from the top of the head to the occipital bone, enters the cranial cavity, connects with the brain, and then goes down to the neck, where it intersects at the Dazhui point. It then divides into left and right sides and runs along the inner side of the shoulder blade and both sides of the spine to the waist, enters the muscles on both sides of the spine, goes deep into the body cavity, connects with the kidneys, and belongs to the bladder. A branch of this meridian branches out from the waist, descends along both sides of the spine, passes through the buttocks, and descends from the outer edge of the back of the thigh to the popliteal fossa.
