Doing one thing to your little finger has amazing results

In today's society, gray hair seems to be a common phenomenon. Although this phenomenon will not directly affect the patient's physical health, it has a great impact on their external image and even causes excessive psychological pressure on patients, leading to mental illness. So, what are the common causes of gray hair?

1. Poor diet

After years of clinical observation, it was found that hair pigment contains elements such as copper and iron. If the diet lacks these elements for a long time, it can affect the production of melanin. In addition, when the body lacks protein and vitamins for a long time, it can also cause the hair to change from black to white.

2. Mental stress

In real life, many teenagers and children are under excessive study pressure, which puts them in a state of tension and causes their hair to turn gray. Therefore, in normal times, it is important to keep children in a good mood. If they are in a state of long-term depression, a bad mood, high mental tension, or excessive work, their hair can turn from black to white.

3. Genetic factors

There are also related surveys that found that many patients' gray hair occurs at the same time as other diseases. Therefore, disease, medication and genetics can be the causes of graying hair. Therefore, after the disease occurs, you must seek treatment in time. Never take medicine indiscriminately. You need to take medicine under the guidance of a doctor.

According to traditional Chinese medicine, the following factors are related to gray hair

1. Deficiency of essence and weak blood: Insufficient kidney essence cannot produce yin blood, and the deficiency of yin blood causes the hair to lose nourishment, thus turning gray.

2. Excessive heat in the blood: Emotional excitement causes water to fail to contain wood, liver becomes hyperactive and blood becomes dry, blood becomes excessively hot, and hair roots become malnourished, resulting in premature graying of hair.

3. Liver depression and spleen dampness: Liver qi stagnation damages the heart and spleen, the spleen is damaged and its transportation and transformation function is impaired, and qi and blood have no source for production, so white hair occurs.

Pressing your little finger more often can prevent premature graying of hair

Massaging the little finger is also a simple, effective and economical method for people with gray hair. Why? Because the little finger is closely related to the kidneys. Massaging the little finger can strengthen the kidneys. Chinese medicine believes that "the kidneys are the source of hair." Although the nutrition of hair comes from blood, the vitality of hair is rooted in kidney qi. The most direct way to see whether your kidneys are active is to look at your hair. Good hair growth indicates good kidney function. If the kidneys are healthy, the hair will be black, thick and dark. Therefore, regularly massaging the little finger can eliminate gray hair.

The specific massage method for treating gray hair is: focus on massaging the kidney point on the first joint of the little finger on the palm side and the life gate point on the second joint. (Kidney point, Mingmen point: Kidney point is located on the first knuckle of the little finger on the palm side. Mingmen point is located on the second knuckle of the little finger on the palm side.)

Press lightly once, release your hand, and then press a second time. Keep doing this about 50 times a day. But special attention should be paid to not using excessive force or holding the pressure for a long time. Excessive stimulation will cause the hair to turn gray. The correct way to massage is to press and release. It is most convenient to massage the little finger while watching TV. You can massage yourself while watching TV. This can not only gradually eliminate gray hair, but also prevent and treat back pain and leg pain.

Massaging the little finger can strengthen the kidneys

Because the little finger is closely related to the kidneys, Chinese medicine believes that "the kidneys are the source of hair." Although the nutrition of hair comes from blood, the vitality of hair is rooted in kidney qi.

There is a meridian point at the outer base of the little finger that is very effective in treating eye aging and conjunctival opacity. It is called the old eye point. If the elderly pinch the base of the little finger with the thumb and index finger in the morning and evening, they can prevent and treat cataracts, aging eyes, etc. If you are a Chinese medicine therapist, before you use methods such as massage, scraping, cupping, acupuncture, etc., you can first apply pressure and massage on the little finger. This will make treating related diseases more effective and shorten the treatment period.
