​Methods to open up the bladder meridian

Meridians are a term used in traditional Chinese medicine. We can improve our body's immunity by massaging the meridians, which has a very good health-care effect. The bladder meridian is a very important meridian in our body. If we can open up the bladder meridian, it can have a very good detoxification effect. So many friends want to know what to do to effectively open up the bladder meridian. Let's take a look at the methods to open up the bladder meridian below.

Each of us has a detoxification system inside our body. As long as we use it well, toxins can be excreted smoothly. In this detoxification system, the role of the Foot-Taiyang Bladder Meridian cannot be ignored.

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, 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 a key point on the bladder meridian. This point can be used to drain but not to supplement, and can be treated with acupuncture but not moxibustion. Why? Because this point is the outlet for draining toxins, so it is usually the first choice for bloodletting.

So what are some simple and easy ways to help open up this meridian?

We can use massage from top to bottom to dredge this meridian. Massaging the acupoints is more effective if you feel pain. Usually, the closer to the feet, the less pain there is, 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.
