There is actually a laxative point hidden in the body!

According to relevant data, the number of people suffering from constipation has been increasing in recent years, and their age is getting younger, including many children. As a result, medicine is not the best way to treat this disease. The most effective way to treat constipation in a timely manner is to massage the laxative points.

1. Yingxiang

The Yingxiang points on both sides of the nose are the end points of the Hand Taiyang and Large Intestine Meridians. When you apply moxibustion on the Yingxiang acupoint, you will feel a warm current gradually seeping down to your body and even flowing into your stomach, and years of constipation will be quickly relieved.

2. Upper Juxu

The Shangjuxu point on the thigh is also a good place to relieve constipation. If you have a weak spleen and stomach, you will feel a warm current rushing upwards during moxibustion, and your entire abdomen will feel warm.

3. Tiantu

Another method is to use your hands to directly scratch the Tiantu acupoint. Tiantu is located in the depression above the sternum, and it is the nemesis of constipation. If there is stagnation in your Jiajiguan lung area, it means that the constipation is caused by the inability of stomach qi to descend. At this time, you can use your fingers to gently dig the Tiantu point inward until you feel like coughing, then gently move the Tiantu point from back to front, and continue to move it for two or three minutes after you feel soreness.

If you do it yourself at home, without using needles, moxibustion on Yingxiang, Shangjuxu and Tiantu will have the same effect. This is equivalent to injecting three streams of warmth into the abdomen from the upper, middle and lower parts respectively. After a few minutes of moxibustion, you will feel warmth in your lower abdomen and will soon feel the urge to defecate.

4. This acupoint is also called hemorrhoid point

Location: This point is located on the extensor side of the forearm, between the ulna and radius, in the upper 1/3 of the line from the wrist joint to the elbow joint on the dorsal side of the forearm.

Principles of acupuncture point selection: left for men and right for women, cross left and right.

Function: Detoxification and purging fire, reducing fever and promoting bowel movements, anti-inflammatory and analgesic.

Indications: internal hemorrhoids, external hemorrhoids, anal fissures, constipation. It can also be used clinically to treat narcolepsy, aphasia caused by stroke, acute lumbar sprain, intercostal neuralgia, soft tissue injury of the chest, and blast-induced deafness.

Note: Hemorrhoid point is one of the specific degrees named according to its functions and indications. It has the functions of clearing away heat and detoxifying, purging fire and relieving constipation, and relieving inflammation and pain. For patients with severe and long-term illness, the acupoints can be selected alternately on the left and right sides. It has a good therapeutic effect on habitual constipation in the elderly. This point is also clinically used as a laxative and fire-purging point.

Nowadays, there are a lot of intestinal cleansing health teas on the market, but many of them contain laxative ingredients. Long-term use will damage the spleen and stomach qi, making the vital energy even more insufficient. Therefore, many people become more constipated the more they eat. The more they eat, the less energy they have, and the less energy they have, the less strength they have to defecate. But you can't rely on laxatives for the rest of your life, right?

Here, I want to recommend you a very safe and effective method. Crush 10-15 grams of Trichosanthes seeds, add 10-15 grams of Angelica sinensis, add 200 ml of water, bring to a boil, and drink the soup. If you find it troublesome, you can also grind 10 grams each of Trichosanthes seeds and raw angelica into powder at the pharmacy, put the powder into No. 0 capsules, and take 4 capsules orally twice a day. This is the recipe I use most often. Whenever I encounter constipation in middle-aged and elderly people, I never use rhubarb. I just use cucurbitacin kernel and angelica. After taking it for one or two days, you will be able to have a smooth bowel movement. This method can also improve facial pigmentation, acne, dull skin, abdominal bloating, etc. caused by long-term constipation. It will not harm the body and can be taken for a long time. It is very effective.
