Method Introduction

Seal: Place your thumb on the palm of your hand, with the fingertip at the base of the ring finger (fourth finger). Then bend the other four fingers and apply a little force to hold the thumb firmly. Holding the fist can keep the essence, energy and spirit in the body. You can do it while walking, riding in a car, chatting or watching TV.

Lift the heels and shake the feet: When lifting the heels, grip the ground with five toes, keep the legs together, tighten the anus and abdomen, sink the shoulders, straighten the neck and spine, and lift the head; when shaking the feet down, relax the body, lightly bite your teeth, slowly fall halfway, and then lightly shake the ground. Raising the heels can stretch the bladder meridian and kidney meridians in the waist, back and legs, and lightly shaking the ground can also stimulate the internal organs.

Heel walking: Take long steps, landing on your heels first, and don't bend your knees. When you step forward, straighten your toes as if you are kicking a ball; when your front foot lands, stand on tiptoe of your back foot. Landing on the heels first actually stimulates the "kidney meridian" acupoints. Walking in this way regularly can effectively prevent and treat osteoporosis.

Soak your feet in hot water: The best time to soak your feet is from 7 to 9 pm every night. This is the time when the kidney meridian's qi and blood are at their weakest. Soaking your feet and massaging them at this time can improve blood circulation throughout the body and achieve the purpose of nourishing the kidneys and liver. A wooden basin is the best container for foot soaking. The water for foot soaking should not be too hot, around 40℃ is appropriate. The foot soaking time should not be too long, 15 to 30 minutes is appropriate.

Deep breathing: When taking deep breaths, choose an environment with fresh air and try to breathe in through your nose. Keep your breathing soft, slow, even and deep. Do 6 deep breaths in a set. Then calm down, adjust, and repeat the cycle again. Exercise therapy only plays an auxiliary role and cannot replace medication.
