Chinese medicine practitioners say that pressing acupuncture points can lower blood sugar, what points are they?

Hi, I am a TCM doctor. For the question you asked, I think there is something wrong in itself.

Perhaps too much to read, health articles, and some of the health of the media people, said that so and so points, can, lower blood pressure, lower blood sugar. In fact, these people are copied, he himself does not have experience in this area.

Even I think it is an irresponsible. Blood glucose is a new indicator, and it can certainly be, regulated through Chinese medicine to achieve lower blood glucose.

Also despite the fact that there are some herbs or some modalities, and even some acupoints, that empirically can achieve some hypoglycemic effect. But this is not absolute, not absolutely suitable for all patients with high blood sugar.

The core of Chinese medicine is evidence-based treatment, perhaps this person his high blood sugar with the treatment of this point, change to another person, then not necessarily use this point.

So the average clinical Chinese medicine practitioner he will not tell the patient, you use this acupuncture point, you can lower blood sugar, you use this formula or this acupuncture point, you can lower blood sugar, lower blood pressure. Very few clinical Chinese doctors will say that. Because it is very irresponsible.

That's not how Chinese medicine treats diseases either. TCM is evidence-based treatment, which in plain English means choosing, acupuncture points, and medications based on your individual situation.

If so-and-so expert or so-and-so miracle doctor tells you that this acupuncture point can lower blood pressure and blood sugar. If it were really that effective, Western medicine's antihypertensive and hypoglycemic drugs, would be eliminated.

So many of these, deified methods in the coat of Chinese medicine, are not really Chinese medicine treatments.

In response to your question, my experience is that you can improve your body's spleen and stomach function and metabolic function by adjusting some acupuncture points of the spleen and stomach. In order to achieve the purpose of lowering sugar.

Of course there is also an acupuncture point called the hypoglycemic point that can be applied with acupuncture with some effect. But would you say that switching to massage has any effect? I have not tested it.

I have not seen, and some people have reported, that it is also effective through massage.

In Chinese acupuncture, there really is this point called the hypoglycemic point.

These points on the middle and upper have the effect of lowering blood sugar, in accordance with the matching map, in Chinese medicine is to use silver needle acupuncture, you can also press, acupuncture will be risky, friends would be better to choose moxibustion, you can achieve the effect of lowering sugar.

The sugar-lowering point is called Pancreatic Yu, and is prone two inches below the tip of the shoulder blade (the width of your own middle three fingers); it can be massaged, and needling must be done obliquely for 0.3 to 0.5 inches. The blood pressure lowering point is called:Blood Pressure Point. In the cervical spine between the sixth and seventh spinous processes next to the two inches, acupuncture can be straight 0.5 to 1 inch, can be moxibustion, massage can also be.

The person who asked this question has absolutely no concept of Chinese medicine and Western medicine. First of all, blood sugar is a modern medical term. It is a human physiological indicator that can be measured accurately. And Chinese medicine does not have the concept of blood sugar at all. In Chinese medicine, diabetes is called consuming thirst, but Chinese medicine does not have a standardized value for this condition at all. When have you ever heard a Chinese medicine practitioner tell you that the Yin deficiency 25, lung fire 36, so in the absence of the concept of blood glucose, the condition of all rely on blind guesses, mysterious and mysterious is not accurate, you are listening to which Chinese medicine practitioners have told you is the "Yellow Emperor's Classic of Nei Jing" on the measurement of blood glucose, or the "Typhoid Fever Theory" on the measurement of blood glucose? Plus acupuncture points, not to mention the effect of no effect, the ancient book of acupuncture points, meridian map drawn with children's drawings. There is no standardized location at all.I have always wanted to ask the master Chinese medicine practitioners, acupuncture meridians actually have an accurate point, or within a three-centimeter radius randomly tied, two old Chinese medicine acupuncture points to find the difference between the2Centimeter, how do you tell who's a liar? Are you going to try with your own life? So if you have Chinese medicine's thirst sickness, go to see an old Chinese doctor honestly, don't use modern medicine's values to embarrass these old tablets. If you have diabetes of western medicine, hurry to go to the regular hospital to register and see the doctor, take insulin, don't seek medical advice on the Internet.
