With the arrival of the Spring Festival holiday, everyone gets together in addition to eating and drinking, fighting landlords and playing mahjong has become a "must-choose" project for many families and friends to gather. Who would have thought that behind the excitement of winning and losing, there was an uninvited "player" - low back pain, who also quietly participated in the game? Don't let your health fall prey to your entertainment. Today, let's find out how to protect our "waist shield" in entertainment.

1. Give the lumbar spine a "protective cover".

Traditional Chinese medicine talks about "five injuries caused by labor": long-term vision hurts blood, and long-term sitting hurts flesh. After sitting for a long time, the lumbar intervertebral disc is like the last straw that crushes the camel's camel, and it begins to emit **-pain. Pain is a distress signal from the lumbar spine, reminding us that it's time to adjust our posture and get up and move.

Change posture: Adjust the height of the chair so that your feet are flat on the ground and your knees are at right angles to your hips. The back is close to the back of the chair and maintains a natural S-shaped spine curvature.

Be a dealer diligently: help others deal cards, not only take care of others, but also get up and move, do stretching, and let the waist leisurely "breathe".

Head Lifting: Tilt your head and stretch your hands back to help stretch your lower back muscles. The most important thing is to remind family and friends at all times, get up and rest regularly, drink some water, go to the bathroom, and relax your tense waist.

Second, the health care acupuncture points are revealed.

Our human body also hides a few "secret cards", that is, the key points of the human body. Let Guo Sheng, chief physician of the Department of Tuina Physiotherapy of Beijing University of Chinese Medicine East Hospital, tell you a few acupuncture points to relieve "waist sleep".

Mingmen acupoint: located in the waist, about 15 inches away. Rubbing this place with the root of the palm is like charging the lumbar spine and improving blood circulation in the lower back.

Kidney Yu acupoint: The location is similar to the Mingmen acupoint, and gently pressing and rubbing this acupoint can help relieve backache.

Yangling Spring Acupoint: It is on the outside of the leg, between the lower edge of the patella and the edge of the tibia, which can put pressure on the lower back.

Waist support tips:

Prepare the "waist music" tea: the middle-aged people's thermos cup, a pot of tea is standard when playing cards, but lumbar spine health care also has its exclusive tea, homemade some containing mulberry parasitism, continuation, Chuanxiong, wolfberry, these herbs help to strengthen muscles and bones, blood circulation and blood stasis, so that you can shuffle and touch the cards at the same time, but also enjoy a cup of "waist music" tea.

The chair is too soft and easy to "trap": replace it with a supportive cushion to give the lumbar spine a solid backing.

Don't let your waist "go it alone": When you get up or sit down, avoid exerting too much force on your waist, move slowly, and don't put unnecessary pressure on your lumbar spine.
