Acupuncture points for treating urinary incontinence

There are many acupoints on the body, and each acupoint is related to various aspects of the body's functions. I hope everyone can perform acupoint massage appropriately. Acupoint massage can relieve urinary incontinence, mainly because acupoints can stimulate the urinary system and regulate the bladder's ability to control urine. As for the acupoints for treating urinary incontinence, it is recommended that you read the contents of the following article.

The first acupoint that can be used for moxibustion for patients with urinary incontinence is Zhongji point. Zhongji is the gathering point of the bladder. In traditional Chinese medicine, it is believed that this point is the main point for treating diseases such as urinary incontinence and enuresis. The Zhongji point is located in the lower abdomen, four inches directly below the navel. The second acupuncture point that can be used to treat urinary incontinence is the Bladder Shu point. Traditional Chinese medicine believes that this point is paired with the Zhongji point, and is a typical example of "Yu-Mu point pairing". Through moxibustion and other methods, it can regulate the bladder qi for the patient, thereby enhancing the bladder's ability to control urine. It is located in the sacral part of the body, two finger widths to the left and right of the second sacral vertebra, and is level with the second posterior sacral foramen.

Traditional Chinese medicine also believes that the human body's kidneys are responsible for absorbing air. When the human body has a weak bladder, urinary incontinence occurs. The root cause is ultimately because the kidney function is damaged, resulting in kidney qi deficiency. Therefore, in the treatment of urinary incontinence, the Shenshu point has become an important treatment point in acupuncture. It is located 1.5 inches lateral to the spinous process of the second lumbar vertebra. The last acupoint for treating urinary incontinence is Sanyinjiao. This acupoint has many functions and effects. Moxibustion on the Sanyinjiao point and other methods can help patients regulate the functions of the liver, kidney and spleen, make the three organs of women harmonious, and further change the internal environment of the body where urinary incontinence occurs. Sanyinjiao is located three inches above the tip of the inner ankle.

The above are the moxibustion points that can be used for urinary incontinence introduced to you today. In the actual operation, the moxibustion time of each point should be between 10 and 15 minutes, and it should be performed 1 to 2 times a day. Continuous use for seven days is a course of treatment. Generally, one course of treatment can significantly improve the patient's urinary incontinence symptoms. If patients can cooperate with massage in daily life, it can also enhance the effects of treatment and health care.
