Of all the acupoints in the human body, which is the most famous? I'm afraid it's Zusanli, which belongs to the stomach meridian of Foot Yangming, and the pulse of Foot Yangming enters, so it's a combination of acupoints. Zusanli can be written as "Zusanli", formerly known as "Xia Ling Li San", which means "people's knees are like a mausoleum, and the mausoleum is three inches below, and one inch is a mile". Neijing: "Above Shu Tian, heaven is the master; Below Shu Tian, the land is controlled by gas; The difference between gas and communication leads to popularity. Everything is handed over to it. " This acupoint dominates the symptoms of the upper, middle and lower parts of the abdomen, so it is called "Li San". Supplementing Li San can strengthen the spleen, and purging Li San can calm the liver and reduce adverse reactions.

As we all know, this is a major point of keeping fit. Regular pressing or moxibustion can harmonize the stomach, strengthen the body and prolong life. Zusanli is the key point to tonify vitality, harmonize qi and blood, tonify deficiency and strengthen body resistance. "Acupuncture and Moxibustion Huiyuan, New Explanation of Ancient Method" holds that "this point has the power of Atractylodes macrocephala, with the heat of cinnamon, the power of ginseng antler and the power of nitrate yellow". According to the analysis of practical application, besides the above functions, it also has the functions of dredging meridians, regulating qi and blood, calming the mind, nourishing essence and strengthening the brain, warming the middle energizer, regulating qi and relieving pain.

Su Wenju's Theory of Pain said: "Cold is between the stomach and intestines, under the membrane, blood can't disperse, and the small collaterals are pulled urgently, so it hurts." "Danxi Heart Therapy for Lumbago" says: "Lumbago is mainly caused by damp-heat, kidney deficiency, blood stasis, stagnation, phlegm and blood stasis", so upper abdominal pain, abdominal pain, lumbago and other symptoms can be caused by the invasion of external evils, leading to qi stagnation and blood stasis, resulting in pain. The song of the four generals' acupoints says, "Leave three miles in the belly." It means that all epigastric pain can be solved through Zusanli point. Zusanli is the acupoint of the stomach meridian of Zuyangming, "its branches start from appetite, down to abdomen and down to Qi Street", so pressing Zusanli can treat epigastric pain and abdominal pain. But many people report; "When I have a stomachache, I can't press Zusanli. What is this? " . A woman with dysmenorrhea said no. Why is Zusanli called "Zusanli"? In fact, "internal" and "rational" are management and conditioning. Zusanli can be written as "Zusanli", which means that you can adjust your body in various ways through this acupoint. What are the "Three Principles"? It is rational, rational and rational. The stomach is located in the upper part of the abdomen. When you have bloating and stomachache, you should "manage", and when you press Zusanli, you should push it up at the same time; If there is discomfort in the middle of the abdomen, you need to "hold it" and press it inward; The lower abdomen is below the abdomen, and the pain in the lower abdomen should be pressed down while pressing Zusanli. This is the so-called "management". This lady's dysmenorrhea belongs to this kind of "management" and can't be suppressed only by management. Dysmenorrhea refers to abdominal pain and discomfort related to menstruation before or after menstruation, which affects life and work. It can be divided into primary dysmenorrhea and secondary dysmenorrhea. Uterine contraction pain causes dysmenorrhea and causes uterine isthmus obstruction. The pressure in the uterus must be very high to overcome this force. Menstrual fluid contains uterine muscle stimulating substances, one of which is prostaglandin released from endometrium, which has inflammatory and painful effects, can sensitize other inflammatory and painful media, cause uterine spasmodic contraction, increase uterine tension, cause uterine isthmus obstruction, lose normal relaxation, reduce uterine blood flow, and thus produce dysmenorrhea. Traditional Chinese medicine of primary dysmenorrhea is "menstrual abdominal pain" and "bedroom dysmenorrhea". Uterine function is closely related to the normal functions of viscera, meridians and qi and blood. The main causes of dysmenorrhea are deficiency of kidney-qi, weakness of qi and blood, stagnation of qi and blood stasis, cold coagulation and blood stasis, and accumulation of damp and heat, which leads to deficiency of qi and blood in chong and ren, or stagnation of qi and blood, which leads to dysmenorrhea. "Inaccessibility leads to pain" refers to excess evil, mostly due to depression or anger, liver depression and qi stagnation, qi stagnation and blood stasis; Or feel the evil of damp-heat, heat and pulse, resulting in qi stagnation and blood stasis; Or just after menstruation, feeling cold evil, overeating and suffering from cold, cold guests rushing to ren, fighting with blood, causing qi and blood to stagnate. The deficiency syndrome of dysmenorrhea is caused by uterine dystrophy, "loss of chastity means pain" or by chronic illness, overwork, prolificacy, or congenital deficiency of kidney qi, kidney deficiency, essence deficiency and blood deficiency; Or the spleen and stomach are weak, the source of metaplasia is insufficient, or the element body is deficient in qi and blood. When menstruation occurs, chong ren's qi and blood are more deficient, and the pulse is dystrophy, resulting in dysmenorrhea.

Zusanli (Zusanli) is the meridian point of Zuyangming's stomach meridian, the confluence point of the five Shu points and the lower confluence point of the stomach. "Its branches start from appetite, follow the abdomen, and stay in the Qi Street" and "stay in the stomach for three miles", which has the effects of caring for abdominal pain, regulating the spleen and stomach and regulating qi and blood. The body is full of qi and blood, chong ren and uterus are nourished, chong ren is adjusted, and symptoms are alleviated. From the anatomical point of view, the muscles contract when lifting the foot, and the pressing is more obvious than in the relaxed state. When the foot is relaxed, the needle feeling is further enhanced due to the movement of muscle fibers and the resistance of the needle, which has better therapeutic effect. It acts on chong ren and uterus, further strengthens its function, nourishes the body, and plays the roles of regulating qi, regulating menstruation and relieving pain, treating both the symptoms and root causes, thus promoting the rapid relief of symptoms.
