This acupuncture point on the body can cure diseases for people of all ages!

Zusanli is an important acupuncture point for health care in traditional Chinese medicine, and is also one of the longevity points. It belongs to the Stomach Meridian of Foot-Yangming. Whether it is massage or moxibustion, it will be very beneficial to the body. The effects of massaging Zusanli are different for different health-conscious people. Now let me tell you what diseases can be cured by massaging Zusanli?

Location of Zusanli

Zusanli is located on the calf. When the leg is bent, you can see a small bone protruding from the skin on the outside of the knee joint. This is the outer knee pit. Zusanli is four fingers directly below the outer knee pit. The health-care effects of Zusanli are mainly reflected in the following aspects.

Elderly people press to delay aging

Zusanli is the He point of the Stomach Meridian (the point where all the meridians in the body converge). Symptoms caused by disharmony of Qi and blood or deficiency of Yang Qi can be adjusted by tapping Zusanli. The specific method is: press with your thumb or middle finger for 5 to 10 minutes each time, and feel a pricking, soreness, and heat sensation at the location. If you persist in doing it, you can prevent diseases, improve your health, resist aging and prolong your life.

Women massage to relieve dysmenorrhea

The massage method is to use the tip of your thumb to press and rub Zusanli with a little force until you feel soreness and swelling; for uterine cold and dysmenorrhea, you can also use suspended moxibustion with moxa sticks. This method has the effects of replenishing qi and blood, warming the uterus, regulating menstruation, and relieving pain.

Male massage to relieve stomach pain

High work pressure often leads to frequent stomach problems. The patient can be seated, with the operator standing on the left side of the patient. First, press the Zusanli acupoint, and then massage upwards with the tip of the thumb at a 45-degree angle to the skin at the acupoint, gradually increasing pressure from light to heavy. Continue massaging for 2 to 3 minutes. Most stomach pains can be relieved.

Children can focus

Studies have shown that some children have poor concentration and bad temper due to a lack of trace elements (zinc, calcium, etc.) or excessive lead levels in their bodies. At this time, you can strengthen the spleen by stimulating Zusanli. A good spleen and stomach can help regulate the level of trace elements and correct phenomena such as inattention and hyperactivity. The massage time is 3 to 5 minutes, and the force should not be too strong.
