The health of our body depends on the quality of work of individual systems (tissues and organs); Our lifespan depends on the service life of each system, and the service life of each system depends on the rate of their aging!
How much water a barrel can hold depends on the length of the shortest plank. A person's lifespan depends on the system that was first scrapped. A liver cancer patient died in his 40s because his liver was scrapped; A hypertensive patient in his 30s died of a cerebral thrombosis because his brain was scrapped, although other systems were fine...
Therefore, if we want to live a long and healthy life, we must take care of every system of the body. And what is the root cause that affects the rate of aging of the system? It lies in the degree and speed of microcirculation blockage. That is, a person's lifespan depends on microcirculation.
Why do people age and die?
Why do people die early? That is to say, why is there a problem with the earliest scrapped system? That's because there is a problem with "local microcirculation".
Why do people die of old age when they reach the "seven old eighties"? The older the person, the slower his movement becomes, and he will feel like this, more and more bored, unable to walk.
What is the reason? It's because of microcirculation.
About microcirculation
Microcirculation is located at the outer and distal ends of the body, and these places first form stasis, blockage, and then slowly spread inward, generally one percent of stasis and blockage every year
When people reach the age of fifty, the microcirculation stasis reaches about 50% (more than half), and the human body begins to age rapidly. At the age of seventy or eighty, the microcirculation stasis is blocked to 70~80%, basically only the middle part of the human body circulation is smooth, the limbs and distal microcirculation are basically not good, and human life is almost at the end.
Why does someone live more than a hundred years old? Because their microcirculation can remain smooth, why are many people "aging first" now? It is because although they are young, the microcirculation blockage is very serious. This is not a vacuum, each of us can judge our approximate future based on our health and stasis.
So, what does a bruise feel like? Or how do we know if we have a blockage? Bruising is painful at first. Is pain a good thing or a bad thing? The most typical symptom of meridian or blood circulation problems is pain, the so-called "pain is not through, general is not pain".
Many people are most afraid of pain, and many people are most anxious to treat pain. Because pain makes people unable to move, pain prevents people from eating, pain prevents people from sleeping. However, one thing may not be understood, once we have a problem with our body, we are not afraid of pain, but afraid of no pain.
Pain is a good thing, indicating that blood circulation has not been completely blocked, the body is producing self-help, and is impacting "blockage".
And once blocked, you don't feel pain, which is a big deal. Just like many people have varicose veins, we can clearly see that every blood vessel is blocked, but does anyone feel pain?
Perhaps many people have not noticed that varicose veins only feel pain in the early stage, and they will not feel pain when they are completely blocked in the later stage. When the blood vessels are blocked, we will not feel pain, followed by numbness, wood, coldness, which is the more serious consequence.
So here, we must understand a truth, if our way to deal with pain is to use painkillers, don't think that it is a good thing that it doesn't hurt in the future. Only by completely opening up the meridians is the most fundamental way to solve pain. Because it's not just a matter of solving pain, it's a matter of eliminating hidden dangers.
Where is blood circulation most likely to be blocked?
Joints and capillaries.
There are many gaps in the joints, Chinese medicine is called acupuncture points, is the "breakthrough" of external evil invasion and internal evil and external exclusion, everyone pay attention to understand, the body's acupuncture points are the most at the joints. Therefore, do not underestimate or ignore the abnormality of the joints, this alarm signal is the most important, through massage and aerobic activation exercise is the fastest and most effective way to "dispel evil" outward.
Capillaries are all in the microcirculation, and joints are mostly capillaries, because the general large and middle blood vessels will not be blocked.
▌Why is microcirculation easy to block?
1. Impurities in the blood, do not take lightly, the body is creating garbage every day.
2. Feel the "wind chill", as soon as the wind chill blood vessels contract, and the blood will become sticky, it will cause blockage. First, the joints and skin are stimulated by cold, and the second is that the internal organs (intestines and stomach) are easily stimulated by "cold drinks and cold food". Therefore, the microcirculation that is full of capillary plexuses is the most likely to be blocked. In fact, the blockage of the microcirculation in each of us will be present, and it will increase with age.
Although in the body, we can't see it, we can feel that the older the person, the slower the action, which is because of the "inactive blood" of old age.
How to judge the degree of body stasis and blockage?
There is a "window" that can help us, and this is the "sublingual vein".
The pathological changes of the sublingual meridians are mainly manifested in color and morphology.
The tongue veins are blue and purple, and their shape is thick and long or angry, indicating Qi stasis and blood stasis, or sputum stasis;
Its color is light purple, the veins are thick or angry, indicating cold and evil condensation or qi deficiency and blood stasis;
Its color is purple red, vein-shaped anger, indicating hot blood stagnation,
Its color is light red or light blue, and the veins are small, indicating a weakness of righteous qi.
The changes in the sublingual chord mainly indicate the existence of stasis lesions, and according to its color cyanosis, light purple, purple red, respectively confirm whether the stasis is Qi stagnation, cold coagulation, Qi deficiency, or heat. Generally, we simply divide the degree of congestion into four levels.
Level 1: two sublingual veins are faint, the diameter of the main trunk is less than 2.6 mm, the length does not exceed the end of the tongue frenulum end, and the entire sublingual vein is not twisted or distented.
Secondary level: the main trunk is full, no more than 2.6 mm in diameter, the length does not exceed 1/2 of the tongue frenulum stop and the tip of the tongue, slightly curved.
Grade III: The main trunk is full, the diameter is thickened by more than 2.6 mm, the length exceeds the tongue frenulum insertion and the tip of the tongue 3/5, and it is slightly curved. Grade 3 indicates that there is a blockage of qi and blood circulation.
Grade IV: main trunk full, varicose distinct, thickened in diameter more than 2.6 mm, longer than 3/5 of the tongue frenulum and tip of the tongue or will reach the tip of the tongue, with thick branching or caviar spines. Grade IV indicates an early tumor in the body.
Therefore, the aging of the human body is the process of continuous blockage of meridians, and often unblocking the meridians can delay aging!

1. Roll and knead the back creek cave
The back stream point is the part of the inside of the hand folded when you clench your hands into fists, we put the back stream point on the edge of the table, use the wrist joint to drive the hands, and easily roll back and forth to achieve the stimulating effect.

2. Tap your elbow socket
The elbow is a relatively dense part of the meridians, and it includes the three meridians of the lung meridian, pericardial meridian and heart meridian, which can remove the fire and toxins of the heart and lungs when patted, and it is also a good way to maintain health, and gently patting until redness can also pass through the meridians, promote the operation of qi and blood, and also help to unblock the meridians.
When clapping, the palm is relaxed, powerful and rhythmic pat down, each arm continuously pats for 5~10 minutes, first pat the left elbow fossa, and then pat the right elbow fossa, there will be blue, red, purple, black and other different colors of toxin reactants. It is best to pat once a week, generally 3~5 times the reactants will be significantly reduced, and the toxins will be cleaned up. If you are afraid of pain, gently patting until redness can also open the meridians and promote the flow of qi and blood.
Precautions: Immediately after the pat, drink a glass of warm water to speed up detoxification, and do not shower on the day.
3. Roll out the bottom of your foot
As we all know, there are many acupuncture points on the soles of people's feet, and the meridians on the soles of the feet also correspond to people's internal organs, so unclogging the meridians of the feet has more and better health care effects for the body, for example, in daily life we can use a rolling pin, often placed under the feet back and forth, 10~15 minutes a day.
4. Stretch the bladder meridian
Stretch your legs straight and together, hook your toes back, grasp your toes with your hands, and slowly press down on your body. This is a way to help the bladder detoxify, at least 15~30 minutes.
