Chapter 91: Warm acupuncture and moxibustion with the effect of drumming
It was already time for dinner, but neither Qiao Guoguo nor Aria had any intention of going back. They both wanted to stay and watch how Li Maoyang treated Si Jin.
Li Maoyang was naturally embarrassed to go back to eat alone, so he called back and said he would not go back to eat, so he ate instant noodles and fried rice at the clinic, but his mother sent the food over.
Mother Li saw that there was another pretty girl and a young man in the clinic. When she asked, she found out that they were from the south for treatment. She immediately knew that this was another customer brought in by Alia for her son!
This Alia is really my son’s little god of wealth!
At that moment, she was so affectionate with Aliya that Li Maoyang was so embarrassed that he clasped his toes and looked at Qiao Guoguo from the corner of his eye. Fortunately, she looked calm and her expression was quite natural.
"Stay here, I'll go back and cook for you. By the way, Aria, Guoguo, and this young man and my daughter, what do you want to eat? Auntie will cook it for you!"
Mother Li greeted warmly.
"No, no, auntie, let's just eat some instant noodles. We just came here and I'm afraid I won't get used to it if I eat too much!" Wen Xiaojun said hurriedly.
Qiao Guoguo, Aria and Sijin also hurriedly said that Auntie didn't need to cook anymore and they could just eat whatever they wanted.
"Mom, you don't have to do anything, we can just eat whatever we want!" Li Maoyang also said quickly.
He really had no choice but to make him very embarrassed when his mother came. He was really afraid of her.
Li's mother rolled her eyes at her son: "I'm not making it for you, I'm making it for these other people!"
"I'm going to see a doctor right away. You've made me sick and I can't see. Please, Mom -" Li Maoyang grinned and said loudly, "I need to be quiet when I'm treating people!"
"The Sword Comes"
After a lot of noise, Li Ma finally left. Li Maoyang scratched his head and felt so upset!
"Auntie is so nice! She is as enthusiastic as my mother!" Wen Xiaojun said.
He was telling the truth. Seeing Ma Li like this, he finally felt relieved. Ma Li was such a simple person, and the son she gave birth to was unlikely to be a cunning person.
This time, no matter whether his sister's condition looks good or not, at least she is unlikely to be deceived.
Then a few people ate quietly.
The Wen Xiaojun brothers were afraid that they would not adapt to the local environment, so they only ate some instant noodles and drank some yogurt they brought with them.
Li Maoyang, Qiao Guoguo, and Alia shared some food, and some instant noodles and fried rice, so that was enough for dinner.
After eating this simple dinner, Li Maoyang began to "verify the condition" of Sijin.
This time he used warm acupuncture.
Take the Dadun and Taichong liver meridian acupoints on Si Jin's left foot and insert them with a 1.5-inch or more filiform needle. After feeling that he is qi, he wraps pure moxa down on the needle handle and places it at a distance of Si Jin's skin.
About 2 to 3 centimeters long, light it from the lower end and apply moxibustion.
Afraid of burning the moxa balls to burn Si Jin, he put pieces of cardboard on Si Jin's feet to slightly reduce the firepower.
"Doctor Li, is this a burning needle?" Wen Xiaojun asked.
This was his first time seeing this kind of acupuncture.
"No, burning acupuncture is to heat the needle with a fire and then insert it into the acupuncture point. It is also called fire acupuncture. This is warm acupuncture." Li Maoyang explained, "Warm acupuncture can slowly penetrate the heat into the skin and meridians through the needle handle.
This can achieve the effects of warming the meridians, dispersing cold, replenishing qi and blood, removing blood stasis and relieving pain. I use it to replenish qi."
Wen Xiaojun scratched his head and laughed.
But after a while, he had another question: "Doctor Li, don't acupuncture points generally need to be selected symmetrically? Why did you only acupuncture Dadun and Taichong on my sister's left foot, but not Dadun and Taichong on the right foot?
Where’s Tai Chong?”
"I am following the rules of the rise and fall of the human body's qi. The human body's qi rises to the left and falls to the right." Li Maoyang briefly explained without going into details, "Don't ask too many questions. I need to be particularly quiet when treating people."
Wen Xiaojun blushed, but when he saw that Li Maoyang was still twisting the needle handle slowly, he did not dare to ask any more questions.
In fact, Li Maoyang was giving Si Jin acupuncture according to the rules of the body's Qi movement rising from left to right and falling from right to left.
Most of the meridians of the human body are symmetrical. There are usually one acupuncture point with the same name on the left and one on the right side. You can maintain health by choosing the acupoint on the left or right side.
But use it correctly.
Generally speaking, every acupuncture point in the human body has both tonic and purgative functions, but the left and right acupoints are different in terms of tonic and purgative functions.
Generally speaking, due to the pattern of human body qi rising from left to right, acupoints on the left have a greater tonic function, while acupoints on the right have a purgative function.
For example, applying medicine to the acupuncture point on the left can replenish the essence of the internal organs; applying medicine to the acupoint on the right can purge part of the essence of the internal organs.
Li Maoyang now wants to replenish liver yang with Si Jin, so he naturally needs to stimulate the acupuncture point on the liver meridian on the left side of Si Jin.
What should I do if I use acupuncture points on the right and if one of them is not used properly, it will cause diarrhea?
So to be on the safe side, he only took four pounds of the Dadun and Taichong points on his left foot.
In fact, it is natural to select the Qimen, Zhangmen, Yin//Bao and other points on the liver meridian, but Sijin is a young girl and it is the first time Li Maoyang has seen her, so it is inconvenient to select those acupoints.
For example, the Qimen point is under the breast // root //, and the Yin // bag point is on the inner thigh. It is not convenient to select the points, so Li Maoyang only selected the Dadun and Taichong points on the feet.
"how do you feel?"
Li Maoyang twirled the needle handle carefully and attentively, and then asked Sijin.
"I feel warm on the left side of my body, as if a heat flow is rising." Si Jin said.
Li Maoyang looked at her cheeks, and then stared intently into her eyes again. He was observing whether the wood grain in the circle representing liver wood was getting denser.
It seems there have been some changes?
But Li Maoyang wasn't sure either.
This kind of experience and observation ability must be accumulated and honed over time. He has just begun to learn to observe patients' eyes, and it is impossible to observe many things at once.
Wen Xiaojun, Qiao Guoguo and Alia were very curious when they saw Li Maoyang observing Sijin's eyes again and again, but they didn't dare to ask more questions at this time for fear of disturbing him.
No one thought that he was harboring thoughts at this time, because his eyes were so focused and serious, and they were also quite clear and pure.
After acupuncture for more than twenty minutes, Li Maoyang took out the needle from Si Jin's left foot and asked Si Jin, "Do you still feel cold in your heart?"
"It's not so cold anymore." Si Jin felt it and said.
"Is there still a sinking feeling in the left half of your body?" Li Maoyang asked again.
Si Jin moved his waist and felt it: "It's reduced a lot."
Li Maoyang nodded, put the needle into the needle bag and put it into the medicine box, and said to Wen Xiaojun: "There is no suitable place for you to live here. You should go to the town to stay at night. There are hotels there."
After saying that, he smiled at Qiao Guoguo and said, "Please give them a ride back and forth these days."
"Okay." Qiao Guoguo said.
"Then that's it for today." Li Maoyang stood up and said, "Let's continue tomorrow."
"What disease does my sister have?" Wen Xiaojun asked.
"It needs to continue to be verified." Li Maoyang said briefly again.
Wen Xiaojun's brother and sister were on guard against him cheating, so he also had to be on guard. What if the two of them figured out what was going on and left immediately? Wouldn't his hard work have been in vain?
Although this kind of thing is generally unlikely to happen, there is a certain chance, right?
In today's society, it is really hard for people to trust people. The whole society is filled with an atmosphere of dishonesty.
