How to Treat Blocked Meridians?

Solutions to the blockage of meridians include warming up, massaging the auricle, combing hair, acupuncture, and massage. Whether the meridians in the human body are unobstructed directly affects one's health, mainly manifesting as body soreness, weakened muscle strength, etc. It is necessary to unblock the meridians promptly to relieve discomfort. If the condition is severe, one should go to the hospital for treatment.

Warming up can make the meridians more unobstructed. As long as there is a heavy accumulation of cold and dampness in the body, all the channels in the body will contract due to cold, and the muscles and tissues in the body will also harden due to cold. Learning the skills of warming up the body and expelling cold and dampness can help thaw the body comprehensively, and various channels will naturally become unobstructed.

Sitting upright, hold both hands in a fist, and use the thumb and index finger to push up and down along the auricle for about 60 seconds until it becomes congested and hot. There are many acupuncture points on the human ear, so massaging the auricle can unblock the acupuncture points.

Use a wooden comb to "comb" the hair from the forehead to the back of the head, from both sides of the temples to the top of the head, 50 to 100 times per session. Morning is the best time for hair combing, and fingers can also be used directly. The meridians in the human body converge on the head. When combing hair, it passes through many acupuncture points such as Meichong and Fengchi, which can promote blood flow in the head and unblock the meridians.

Unblocking meridians can be an important measure for health maintenance, and a simple method is to frequently stimulate, massage, and perform acupuncture on three important acupuncture points: Hegu, Neiguan, and Zusanli.
