Summer is a good season for dehumidification. Frequent tapping of elbows, armpits and leg sockets can expel moisture from the body, promote the health of our spleen and stomach, and enhance digestive function. For those who usually have a weak spleen and stomach, It's very beneficial.

People with heavy dampness have the following symptoms: weak spleen and stomach, gear-shaped edges on the tongue, frequent fatigue and unformed stools. Moreover, as the temperature increases in summer, many people like to drink cold drinks and eat ice cream, which further intensifies the invasion of dampness and cold in the body.

So in addition to not drinking cold drinks in summer, the advice of old Chinese medicine practitioners is to remove dampness and cold from the body in time during the dog days, and pay more attention to your health.

Pat the three parts frequently to remove moisture in time

1: Quchi point of the cubital fossa. Tap the Quchi point in the elbow fossa. It is easier to find this spot to remove moisture, which is a little outside of the elbow. Tapping this acupoint can dredge the meridians and eliminate heat in the body. After a period of tapping, small red dots will appear, which is a symbol of actual elimination from the body.

Two: Jiquan point in the armpit. Massaging this acupoint several times a day can also help drain moisture and speed up blood flow. Massaging the Jiquan point is of great benefit to the prevention of heart disease and heart disease patients.

Three: Weizhong point in the leg socket. The Weizhong point on the two leg sockets has the same effect as the Quchi point above. For some white-collar office workers, massaging this acupoint can also relieve leg pain. Moreover, massaging this acupoint is also of great benefit to patients suffering from the sequelae of fractures.

my country’s traditional Chinese medicine acupoint massage and treatment is extensive and profound, and its culture has a long history. It has a profound influence and effect on our future generations. As descendants of Yan and Huang, we should not abandon the traditional culture of traditional Chinese medicine, inherit and carry it forward, and apply it to ourselves in daily life, so that we can make the best use of it.
