A, pushing method

Push method is to use the thumb to point to the abdomen, or feed, middle finger to point to the abdomen online or on the point. There are four types of "direct pushing, spin pushing, partial pushing and combined pushing". Push the strength should be light and gentle, continuous and even, similar to the strength when stroking, but cannot float at the surface, but should fall to the actual place, take the skin not red as appropriate. Push method, mostly in the direction of the heart (to the heart direction) push as supplementary method, reverse for the catharsis method.

1. Direct push

Direct push refers to the straight line push on the acupoint, often used in the "line" acupoint of the hand, arm, forehead and back of the chest. Push with gentle force and speed. For example: open tianmen door, push three close, clear the day river water, retreat liufu, push tianzhu bone, push seven bones, push back and so on belong to straight push method.

1) open doors

2) push three shut

3) clear sky river

A. Introduction of seven joints of bone can warm Yang to prevent diarrhea, mostly used for deficiency and cold diarrhea, dysentery and other diseases

B. Pushing down the seven bones can cause diarrhea and defecation, and it is mainly used for intestinal hot constipation, dysentery and other diseases.

7) back push (push the pulse or bladder meridian)

2. Spin pushing

The spin push is to use the thumb to make a clockwise or counterclockwise rotation on the acupoint. Push is mainly used in the fingers moving, forearm and wrist joints do not move. Often fill lienal meridians, fill kidney classics these are to do to rotate push. In this class, my mother asked me whether the position of the spin push station had changed, and whether the method should also change. In fact, if you carefully observe, you will find that no matter where you are, the clockwise and counterclockwise directions are the same. The frequency of the spin push is a little slower than the direct push, generally controlled at 100-150 beats per minute. See below

3. Partial derivation

Push is to use two hands thumb or feed in the finger abdomen, from the middle of the points to the two sides to push forward, or do figure eight movement, two straight line push and arc push. For example, we can separate out the smell of mutton, either from the smell of mutton in the straight direction to both sides, or along the lower edge of the ribs to separate out. The frequency is usually 50-100 beats per minute. This kind of manipulation is common as follows:

1) the points he palace

2) shunting

3) ventral Yin and Yang

4) push the shoulder blades apart

5) break up Yin and Yang

4) push us

The syzygy is driven from both sides of the meridians to the middle. This method is not commonly used, you should pay attention to control the range of motion, do not squeeze the skin. The frequency is also typically 50-100 beats per minute.

On the whole, all the force of push is: fast but not frivolous, light but practical.
