The meridians of the human body are the channels through which qi and blood flow, and they spread throughout the body like rivers, maintaining the health and balance of the body. Among them, the ankle is an important part connecting the upper and lower parts of the human body, and its rotation not only helps local blood circulation, but also stimulates the six important meridians, thereby regulating the body and enhancing health.
When we rotate the ankle, by rotating the ankle as the axis, we can focus on stimulating 6 meridians, namely: liver meridian, spleen meridian, kidney meridian and bladder meridian, stomach meridian, and gallbladder meridian.
Such stimulation can promote the flow of qi and blood in the meridians and enhance the patency of the meridians.
When we gently turn our ankles, the first thing that is stimulated is the Foot Yang Ming Stomach Meridian. This meridian starts in the eyes and descends to the feet, where it is responsible for digestion and nutrient absorption. By stimulating the stomach meridian, it can not only help improve digestive problems, but also promote the absorption of nutrients and provide sufficient energy for the body.
Immediately afterwards, the Foot Taiyin and Spleen Meridians will also be stimulated, and the Spleen Meridian is responsible for transporting the subtleties of the water valley, which complements each other with the stomach meridian to maintain the body's nutritional balance. Turning the ankle can enhance the function of the spleen meridian and help improve the symptoms of indigestion and fatigue caused by spleen deficiency.
Liver meridian: The liver meridian is related to the liver, regulates the excretion of liver qi and the circulation of qi and blood, and stimulates the liver meridian to help regulate liver function, promote the comfort of liver qi, and alleviate the impact of emotional stress on menstrual irregularities.
Kidney meridian: The kidney meridian is related to the kidney, responsible for reproduction and growth and development, stimulating the kidney meridian can nourish kidney qi, regulate the endocrine system, and have a certain impact on the regularity of the menstrual cycle.
Bladder meridian: The bladder meridian is related to the bladder and kidneys, participates in water metabolism and detoxification, and stimulates the bladder meridian to promote the discharge of metabolic waste products from the body and maintain the balance of the body.
Biliary meridian: The biliary meridian is related to the gallbladder and is related to digestion and emotion. Stimulating the bile meridian can promote the secretion of bile, aid digestion, and also help regulate mood.
The simple action of turning the ankle can not only promote local blood circulation, but also stimulate the six important meridians, which play a role in regulating the body and enhancing health. In our daily lives, we can turn our ankles anytime and anywhere.
