Which acupoint is best to massage if you have heart problems?

Many middle-aged and elderly people will have some heart problems more or less after they get older. Cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases are relatively common. This is mainly due to the deterioration of physical functions of the elderly after they get older. In fact, if the heart is not too good, it is not a heart disease, or the heart disease is not too serious, it is also very good to do some acupoint massage by yourself. Let's take a look!

The first one is Neiguan acupoint. How to find the Neiguan acupoint? Neiguan is two inches above our wrist crease. This two inches refers to the same body inch, not the two inches measured with a ruler. Two inches is approximately the width of two horizontal fingers. The Neiguan point is located two inches above the transverse wrist crease, right in the middle of the two tendons.

Whether you are suffering from palpitations, chest tightness, chest pain, or frequent fainting, you can massage this acupoint. How to press it specifically? Just press and rub it with your thumb. Press and rub with a certain amount of force, and you can feel it. You will feel obvious soreness, which means it is effective.

The second is Zhiyang point. We have shoulder blades on our back. The place where the line connecting the lower corners of both shoulder blades passes through the spine is Zhiyang point, which is the depression below the spinous process of the seventh thoracic vertebra. This acupoint is very effective when you feel chest pain, chest tightness, or even abdominal pain. You can press this acupoint with your thumb. To what extent should you press it? You will feel soreness in the local area, and the chest pain and abdominal pain will be relieved after a while. This acupoint can relieve angina pectoris very quickly. Place a small spring in this acupuncture point and lean back on a chair to relieve chest pain. We can usually ask others to help us massage this acupoint to achieve health-care effects.

If the elderly feel myocardial infarction, heart pain, or abnormal heart rhythm for a long time, it is recommended that they pay attention to it and go to the hospital for a professional and systematic examination in time. After the disease is confirmed, treatment can be carried out. For diseases like this, medication must be taken for a long time. Never fail to take medication.
