Tendon therapy is based on the theory of internal organs and meridians, through the method of internal diseases and external treatment, loosening tendons, passing through their meridians, adjusting their qi and blood, replenishing weakness and diarrhea, and bringing yin and yang into balance.
The "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic" emphasizes that according to the level of "skin, flesh, muscles, veins and bones" to treat diseases, and implemented in practice, it is to apply different conditioning methods according to the location of the lesion, including orthodontics, tendons, skin thinning (ridge pinching) and so on.
Pluck the tendons back to the groove to adjust the yin and yang
As the saying goes, "tendons are one inch longer, life is longer than ten years" and "exercise strengthens muscles and bones, and tuna is good". Chinese folk have long been closely related to the health and life expectancy of people, believing that sitting for a long time leads to contraction of tendons, which in turn produces various diseases.
According to the data, the tendon therapy originated in the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, which has a history of more than 2,000 years, and there are clear written records on the technique of conditioning tendon injuries in the "Yellow Emperor's Inner Classic", "Golden Plaque Essentials", "Preparation for Emergencies", and "Medical Sect Jinjian • Orthodontic Bone Heart Method Essentials".
Gao Zhiping from Kaifeng Baiyitang began to learn tendon therapy in 1996, often exchanged skills with famous tuina teachers from all over the world, followed the concept of bone and muscle softness, yin and yang balance, and formed his own unique tendon technique over the years, And Mr. Zhao, a citizen of Zhengzhou, is the beneficiary of Gao Zhiping's tendon technique.
Mr. Zhao 5 years ago due to lumbar disc herniation compression sciatic nerve, waist swelling and pain, once unable to walk, even at night will wake up several times, seriously affecting the quality of life. After being introduced by a friend, he came to Gao Zhiping for massage and conditioning, and the pain symptoms were alleviated, and he could walk independently for hundreds of meters.
Originated from the people, serving the public
"About three-quarters of patients with neck, shoulder, waist and leg pain are not problems with the bones, but problems with the tendons attached to the joints, that is, soft tissue injuries, and soft tissue injuries such as muscles, tendons, and ligaments are the main causes of pain around the four major joints." Gao Zhiping introduced that sometimes a very small tendon or a very thin ligament injury will cause severe pain around the joint, which can be tried to pull the tendon back into the groove.
"The ribs belong to the category of tuina. Tendon injuries are generally divided into two types, one is a tendon injury, which is caused by external forces and needs to be sutured; the second is similar to soft tissue injury, which relies on manual techniques to activate the blood and dissolve the stasis for patients to achieve the purpose of recovery. Gao Zhiping said that his customers come from all over the country, with the largest number in Zhengzhou and Kaifeng, and his wife, son and daughter-in-law are currently engaged in the physiotherapy industry, trying to carry forward this traditional massage technique." Tendon therapy originated from the people at the earliest and should serve the broad masses of the people. Gao Zhiping said.
