For men, regular massage on the philtrum helps to nourish the kidneys and strengthen the waist.

　　There are many secret recipes for health care in traditional Chinese medicine, among which acupoint health care is the most common health care recipe. Traditional Chinese medicine has discovered that the acupuncture point "Renzhong" has a wide range of uses. If you massage the "Renzhong" regularly, it can nourish the kidneys and strengthen the body.

　　Regularly pressing the philtrum can nourish the kidneys and strengthen the waist

　　Renzhong point, also known as Shuigou point, is located at the junction of the upper 1/3 and middle 1/3 of the middle of the nasolabial fold. It is an important acupoint for "refreshing the brain and resuscitation." Acupuncture or stimulating this acupoint with nails and other sharp objects can be used to treat acute illnesses such as heat stroke, stroke, coma, and syncope. Therefore, "Renzhong point" is also known as the "emergency point." However, if we only use the first-aid function of this point, it seems to be a bit "condescending". The effect of Renzhong point is actually more than that.

　　Regularly pressing and rubbing the Renzhong acupoint with your fingers not only has first-aid effects, but also has the functions of tonifying the kidneys, strengthening the waist, and coordinating yin and yang. It can be used to treat stiffness and pain in the lower back, acute lumbar sprains and other diseases. Modern medicine believes that this part is exactly equivalent to the height of the first cervical vertebra. The stimulation received under the nose is transmitted in parallel to the first cervical vertebra. After the spinal nerves are stimulated, the erector spinae muscles supporting the back relax, thus easing the tension and pain in the lumbar spine. Specific method: Place your index, middle, and ring fingers (fingertips upward) close to the bottom of the nose, move left and right on the upper 1/3 of the philtrum, and rub your fingers back and forth for 10 minutes each time, once in the morning and evening. After rubbing your fingers and pinch, you will feel your waist is relaxed and your legs are strong. It should be noted that when massaging and pinching, the rhythm should be gentle, the movements should be gentle, the shoulders and arms should be relaxed, the fingers should be retracted, and the force should penetrate the fingertips. The pinched area should not produce bruises, let alone break the skin. In addition, if you feel dizzy in the office, pinching this acupuncture point with your hands can also refresh your mind and increase your appetite.
