These incurable diseases can be cured by "rubbing"

Rubbing the soles of the feet is a good way to treat diseases in Traditional Chinese Medicine, because there is an important acupuncture point on the soles of the feet, called "Yongquan", which is the "Jing point" of the kidney meridian. The so-called "Jing" means origin. The kidney meridian originates from here, which is the root of the kidney in Traditional Chinese Medicine.

The meridian and acupoints in traditional Chinese medicine are actually our body's own "medicine". Massaging or applying patches on the acupoints on the kidney meridian is similar to taking medicine to nourish the kidney and yin. Specifically, the "Yongquan" is the source of yin nourishment, and rubbing the soles of the feet is actually massaging the "Yongquan", which can naturally treat mouth ulcers, toothaches, swollen eyes, sores and boils on the head and face, and even high blood pressure, restlessness and insomnia, etc. In short, all problems caused by the inflammation of the virtual fire can be reduced by rubbing the "Yongquan" to replenish water and nourish yin. Traditional Chinese medicine calls it "leading the fire back to the origin."

The theory of "leading fire back to the origin" was proposed by Zhang Jingyue, a famous doctor in the Ming Dynasty. What he meant was that the human body must have a balance of yin and yang. If the yin is insufficient, the yang will have no place to attach to, and the false yang will float up, which will cause various symptoms of false fire. This is one of them. Secondly, if the Yin-cold is particularly severe, it will also keep the Yang out, and there will be a phenomenon of true cold and false heat. The latter is more serious than false fire, and often occurs when the patient is critically ill. It is a "false prosperity" of the body or even a last burst of life.

Rubbing the soles of the feet can obviously treat the former, which is also a kind of daily health care that people need most today. Because whether it is lifestyle or mental stress, many people nowadays are "getting angry", and most of them are virtual fire. The root cause of this virtual fire is actually insufficient yin and mismatch between yin and yang. Rubbing the soles of the feet can reduce the virtual fire by replenishing water and make yin and yang match.

Since it is a false fire, it must be distinguished from an actual fire. It is generally suitable for treatment by rubbing the "Yongquan" point. Whether it is a mouth ulcer, a sore throat, toothache or various sores, there is usually no obvious local redness, swelling or heat, but only a feeling of pain, or manifestations of local ulcers, and it may not heal for a long time or may recur. If it is high blood pressure, even if there is a red face and eyes as a fire sign, the person is still afraid of cold, and his legs and feet are sore and weak, or his face is very hot but his feet are cold, his hands and feet are cold, and he is very afraid of cold. In short, it is a mixture of cold and heat, or even hot on the upper body and cold on the lower body. At this time, it is mostly false fire, which can be treated by rubbing the "Yongquan" point.

Rubbing the "Yongquan" with the heated "Laogong" can blend water and fire and balance yin and yang. Many people's insomnia is cured by "rubbing" in this way, especially those with excessive heart fire, daytime irritability, insomnia and nightmares at night. If they take medicine, the doctor will prescribe "Niuhuang Qingxin" and "Tianwang Buxin" and the like, which aims to nourish the heart yin while removing fire. For such people, rubbing the soles of their feet before going to bed can even replace taking medicine.

In addition, there is a method of applying a patch on the "Yongquan" acupoint, which can also treat the above diseases. This was first created by Liu Wansu, a famous doctor in the Jin and Yuan Dynasties. The Chinese medicine aconite is ground into powder, generally 10-15 grams, as long as it can be applied to the Yongquan acupoint, mix it with water and apply it on the "Yongquan" acupoint. Aconite is the top yang-tonifying medicine. It is similar to rubbing the hot "Laogong" acupoint and applying it to the "Yongquan" acupoint. It is intended to guide the fire back to the origin and reduce the false fire.
