Zhasifeng has no therapeutic effect on anemia. Zhasifeng refers to the Sifeng acupuncture point, which is one of the fourteen meridians of the human body and a key acupuncture point connecting the internal organs and communicating the left and right upper and lower limbs. Sifeng acupuncture point is mainly used to treat diseases such as headache, stomachache, and numbness of fingers, but it has no effect on the treatment of anemia.
The Sifeng acupuncture point is located between the first and second metacarpal bones of the fingers, which can make the human body's qi and blood abundant, suitable for the treatment of some diseases such as headache, stomachache, insomnia, etc. From the perspective of traditional Chinese medicine, if you want to treat anemia, you need to carry out different treatments according to different syndromes. The therapeutic effect of Sifeng acupuncture point is also limited, so it has no effect on anemia.
1. Weak spleen and stomach: Traditional Chinese medicine believes that the spleen and stomach are the foundation of acquired constitution and mainly responsible for transportation and transformation. Patients with weak spleen and stomach may have symptoms such as poor complexion and listlessness. Regular massage of the Sifeng acupuncture point can strengthen the spleen and supplement qi, improve the transportation and transformation function of the spleen and stomach, and enhance hematopoiesis.
2. Blood deficiency: Patients with blood deficiency may experience symptoms such as fatigue, dizziness, and insomnia. Regular massage of the Sifeng acupuncture point can replenish qi and blood and alleviate blood deficiency.
3. Malnutrition: Malnutrition can also lead to anemia. Massaging the Sifeng acupuncture point can improve malnutrition and play an auxiliary role in treatment.
4. Iron deficiency anemia: Iron deficiency anemia is caused by a lack of iron in the body, while the Sifeng acupuncture point does not contain iron, so it cannot be treated by massaging the Sifeng acupuncture point. To treat iron deficiency anemia, you can take some Western medicines orally, such as ferrous sulfate and ferrous ambidextrin.
5. Megaloblastic anemia: Megaloblastic anemia is caused by a lack of folic acid and vitamin B12, while the Sifeng acupuncture point contains a high level of folic acid and vitamin B12, so megaloblastic anemia can be treated by massaging the Sifeng acupuncture point.
