How to open up the bladder meridian simply and effectively?

Certain acupoints on the human body can help detoxify, so tapping these points frequently to ensure local blood circulation can speed up the body's metabolism. The bladder point is an important acupoint, which can not only dredge the blood circulation in the back, feet, and neck, but also speed up the body's detoxification system. Therefore, the bladder has become an important detoxification channel for the human body. Therefore, simply and effectively tapping the bladder point can not only speed up the metabolism of toxins, but also promote digestion and absorption.

What function does the bladder meridian have on the human body?

The Bladder Meridian starts at the Jingming point at the inner corner of the eye, ends at the Zhiyin point at the tip of the little toe, and connects with the Kidney Meridian of Foot Shaoyang. It runs through the head, neck, back, and feet, symmetrically with 67 points on each side. It is the meridian with the most points among the Fourteen Meridians, with one main line and three branches.

Because of this, the bladder meridian has become the largest detoxification channel in the human body, transmitting evil toxins all the time. Other ways of detoxification, such as bowel movements, sweating through pores, expelling dampness and toxins from athlete's foot, expelling phlegm and turbidity from the trachea, as well as tears, acne, vomiting, etc., are also ways of detoxification, but they are all local and segmented, and finally they will be merged into the bladder meridian. Let us make an analogy. The bladder meridian is like the various sewage pipes in a city, which collect sewage from various enterprises and residences, and finally converge into the bladder (sewage storage station) for discharge. Therefore, in order to remove toxins from the body, the bladder meridian must be unobstructed.

The section of the bladder meridian from Yinmen point to Weizhong point under the buttocks is of vital importance. It is an important way to check the extent of toxin accumulation in the body. Two bladder meridian pathways pass through here, and this is where the most toxins accumulate. If toxins are difficult to disperse, congestion and tumors will form in the body; if this area is always unobstructed, cancer will not occur and serious diseases will not develop. Therefore, this is the place where you can settle down and make a living, and you must know this. The Weizhong point is an important point on the bladder meridian. This point can be drained but not supplemented, and can be treated with acupuncture but not moxibustion. Why? Because this acupoint is the outlet for toxins, it is usually the first choice for bloodletting.

So is there any simple and easy way to help open up this meridian?

We can use massage from top to bottom to dredge this meridian. Massage on the acupoints will be more effective if you feel pain. Usually, the pain is less as it gets closer to the foot, so you should massage this meridian repeatedly. When you pinch the Zhiyin point on the outside of your little toe with your fingernails and it hurts like a needle prick, the bladder meridian is unblocked. Then massage frequently to keep this line unobstructed.

The best time to stimulate the bladder meridian should be 3 - 5 pm. This is the time when the bladder meridian is in season, and the qi and blood in the bladder meridian are the most abundant. If you can massage it and unblock the qi and blood, it will have a good health care effect on the human body. In particular, the bladder meridian is a meridian that can go to the brain, so qi and blood can be easily transported to the brain. Therefore, at this time, whether studying or working, the efficiency is very high.
