Patient's question:
Mother has had diabetes for over a year and has been regulating it with medication and diet. She has been controlling her diet very well, and her high blood pressure has also been very stable. Recently, I often go to a massage parlor, and my friends at the massage parlor said that massage can also control diabetes. I also want to try it for my mother.Doctor's answer:
Hello, massage of the Chengjiang acupoint: After initiating the Dan Tian opening and closing, combine the two hands with sword fingers, placing the tip of the middle finger lightly on the Chengjiang acupoint (the center of the depression between the lower lip). Massage 18 to 36 times first in the forward direction (left turn), then in the reverse direction (right turn); then perform three presses with three breaths (i.e., gently press down during exhalation and slightly lift during inhalation, moving the fingers slowly up and down on the acupoint with each breath, for a total of three cycles). Finally, relax the hands and lower them naturally. This method primarily treats diabetes.
