Acupuncture. Longevity

For most people, the eastern practice of acupuncture or reflexology is the greatest Chinese wisdom. No less dramatic is the matter with this problem in the scientific world. To date, there is no sufficiently convincing theory capable of explaining the essence of this technique. This situation significantly inhibits the development of this unique area in medicine. The finding of biologically active points, sagebrush cigars, needles, their purchase or manufacture, the complexity of application, all this makes it difficult to treat this technique at home. Here we propose a new look at the origin of this practice and its use in order to increase life expectancy by means of a simplified, but very effective scheme for activating the twin point of longevity-the Zu-san-li point.

At the present time, aging is treated as a disease. Unfortunately, this is a disease whose outcome is predetermined, and the scale is enormous. There are quite a lot of theories of aging from which it is possible to distinguish, perhaps, two main ones: it is a genetic and an oxidant one. The essence of the genetic theory, in a simplified version, is that at certain times genes of aging are included which lead the body to death. There is such a rare disease as progeria, when the aging genes are included in the work from infancy and the body, accelerating through all stages of development, dies of old age at the age of 12 to 14 years. Genetics is actively working in this direction. By the way, in the course of work on the Human Genome Project, they promised by 2020 to catalog the genes involved in the aging process and conduct clinical trials to increase longevity. Oxidant theory of aging involves the fight against free radicals, which accumulate with age in the blood and damage the cells. To fight free radicals, antioxidants are used in pharmaceutical production or containing natural products such as honey, pepper, green tea, carrots, pumpkin, turnips, spinach.

In the struggle for longevity, an integrated approach must be applied. This is a moderate diet, which includes fruits, vegetables, physical activity, positive psychological adaptation to unfavorable circumstances. When the inevitable signs of old age begin to impose their rights on our lives, most of us stop resisting and leaning towards fate. A person feels uncomfortable, loses interest in life and gives himself into the hands of an inexorable fate. It is not right. Everyone should strive for the heroic deed of longevity, it is dull to become the meaning of life for each of us. And this is not just a personal goal, this is the requirement of Nature, it is the law of evolution. We want to talk about the ancient Chinese method - acupuncture or punctual reflexology and its use to combat aging.

There is a beautiful ancient legend that tells that about 4000 years ago, during the reign of the Chinese Emperor Fu Qi, one of his subjects of the peasant accidentally hit himself with a ketman on his leg. When the peasant crouched on the edge of the field to examine his wound, he suddenly discovered that he had miraculously got rid of the cruel headache that had tormented him for many years. Comparing these two events, the peasant came to the conclusion that striking a pointed stone at certain points in the body can cure many diseases. The method was used by the inhabitants of all the surrounding villages. Fu Qi, a knowledgeable man in many sciences, having learned about this method, perfected it, replacing the stone with less painful injections with a metal needle. Currently, steel, silver and even gold needles are used for these purposes. In the future, acupuncture was replenished and another way of influencing the "vital" points, namely, cauterization of wormwood cigars. Faith in the magic power of fire pushed people to this method. The following legend tells us about the miraculous power of cauterization for increasing life expectancy. In 1795, during the reign of Tokugawa Ianari, in the city of Edo, the ancient name of Tokyo, at the invitation of the daidze, the chief minister, came one of the oldest people in Japan, the peasant Mamne. He was 194 years old. Asked by the minister, what is the secret of his longevity, Mamne replied: "I learned my mocus from my ancestors - cauterization and use it all my life. I and my family from the 1st to the 8th of each month do themselves cauterization on their legs at the Zu-san-li point. My father told me that the Zu-san point is the point of longevity and if you want to live long, do mocussa. My wife is now 173, my son is 153, my son's son is 145, my grandson is 105, my grandson's wife is 90 years old. "The old man was given rice and money and sent home with honors. But the story did not end there. After 48 years Mamne again arrived in Edo. He was 242, Jeanne 221, son 201, son's wife 193, grandson 153, grandson's wife 138 years old.

Even at the very beginning of the application of this method, it was noted that when injections and cauterization at certain points of the body, patients feel stimuli of irritation, heaviness and deep aching in the muscles. But after a while there is a surge of vital energy through certain channels with the subsequent recovery of the diseased organ. In medicine, this phenomenon is called irradiation of pain, when pain, localized at one point, spreads to large areas of the body. Irradiation is associated with the spread of pain impulse along the nerve pathways, But active points of acupuncture are not connected with the nervous system. It was necessary to develop the doctrine of "meridians" and active biological points located along them. Twelve meridians and about 50 active points were identified.

A clear scientific basis for the method of acupuncture and moxibustion has not yet been developed. The main reason here is the absence of any morphological characteristics of active points and meridians. This led to the fact that the number of meridians increased to fifty, and the number of active points to seven hundred. The lack of scientific justification and the abundance of points and meridians undermined faith in the effectiveness of the method.

There is a fairly large number of attempts to scientifically substantiate this method. So the Japanese physiologist T. Ishigawa identifies the meridians with the anatomical formations of the organism, indicating the proximity of their progress to the neurovascular trunks and the locations of the nerve endings. According to the prominent English biologist S. Morant, some meridians correspond to the course of the nerve trunks and their plexuses, to other courses of blood vessels.

The effect on the active points of the body is reflexive. This indicates the connection of this phenomenon with the nervous system, since any reflex implies its participation in this process. However, as experiments have shown, our nervous system does not participate in these processes.

Then we drew attention to some coincidences of the ancient nervous system of animals with the location of meridians and active points of acupuncture.

The evolution of the nervous system of the animal kingdom proceeded in stages. One of the main stages of the evolution of the nervous system is a two-chain nodal nervous system. Such a nervous system we can observe, for example, in annelids. On them, along the entire length of the body, on two sides, there are two nerve trunks with nerve nodes. One of the features of this nervous system is bilateral symmetry, its right side looks like a mirror image of the left one. In the anterior part of the nerve trunks are two large nerve nodes: the supra-oropharyngeal and the sub-pharyngeal, performing tactile and digestive functions, respectively. Throughout the length, on both nerve trunks, there are several large paired nerve nodes and a sufficiently large number of small nodules. From these nodes to the internal organs nerve fibers leave . In the process of evolution, two nerve trunks sink deep into the muscle mass and, connecting with each other, form the spinal cord, and the large nerve nodes of the two chains, joining together, form thickenings of the modern spinal cord. At the same time, the suprapharyngeal node moves to the left, and the larger sub-pharyngeal node to the right and upwards. They merge forming the brain of the head and its right and left hemispheres. So we got the current central nervous system, and the old two-chain nodal system remained in the infinite depths of the ancient memory of our body. It remained in the memory of our body in the form of a virtual nervous system. But its meaning, as we shall see later, is not at all virtual, but quite real.

It turned out that the virtual nervous system, its nerve nodes and neural pathways coincide with the location of biologically active points and meridians. The virtual nerve pathways from nodes to organs are meridians, and the virtual nodes of the two nerve chains are biologically active points. Their number, according to the structure of the two-chain nodal nervous system, is 18 meridians and 48 biologically active points located on both sides of our body. Surprisingly, the thickening of the spinal cord coincides with the location of the chakras, the so-called energy centers of vital energy in the Indian concept of spiritual development. Two chakras: sahasrara and ajna correspond to the left and right hemispheres of the brain, and the five others: vishuddha, anahata, manipura, svadhisthana and muladhara correspond to cervical, thoracic and lumbosacral thickenes of the spinal cord.

But let us return to the point of longevity or the point from one hundred diseases, about which the peasant Mamne spoke. In medical terminology, the location of the point is determined as follows: it is located below the upper edge of the lateral condyle of the tibia at 3 tsunya, at the anterior edge of the tibial muscle. But there is a simpler and more accessible way. Put your hand on your knee, the fourth finger, starting from the big one, will find a dimple on your knee from the outside, this is just the famous point of longevity-Tszu-san-li, over which our Mamne, from the 1st to the 8th of each month, made a mocus or Cauterization of wormwood cigar. The effect of cauterization treatment is due to the irradiation and the depth of penetration of heat. Deep penetrating heat causes a powerful toning of the body, while surface heating has only a sedative or soothing effect.

Wormwood cigars can be bought in stores specializing in Chinese medical practices. Wormwood cigars can be cooked by yourself. Wormwood is collected in the middle of summer, dried in the shade. Dried leaves are carefully crushed, removing stems and veins. As a result, there is a silky powder, the so-called wormwood velvet. The powder can be kept for up to three years, it grows stronger. In China they say: "If your illness lasts more than seven years, take three-year-old wormwood." Wormwood velvet is wrapped in thin paper 20 cm long and 4 cm wide, the edges of the paper glued together with egg white. This cigarette burns, approximately, 1 hour. Depending on the need for such a cigar is cut into pieces and used by appointment. The duration of cauterization is from 7 to 30 minutes, depending on personal and clinical indications. A wormwood cigar should not burn the skin. Store wormwood velvet and cigars in closed boxes, in a dry place. However, given the tremendous employment of modern man and some inconveniences associated with the use of wormwood cigars, to activate the point of longevity, we suggest using warming ointments for this purpose. You can prepare the ointment yourself. This is a simple procedure. Take one tablespoon of hot red pepper and 50 grams of pork fat, preferably internal. All this is carefully rubbed and the ointment is ready for use. It is convenient to apply the ointment with two middle fingers simultaneously on the points of both legs. Wipe for 2-3 minutes. Then, it is desirable to apply a bandage to the knee joint so that the warming penetrates as deeply as possible into the tissue. The warming effect of the ointment lasts long enough and already without your participation. The procedure should be conducted in the evening, strictly from the first to the eighth day of each month throughout life. It should be understood that this is not just a physiotherapy procedure, but, above all, it is a serious spiritual practice, therefore, a psychophysiological attitude appropriate to this situation is necessary. The personal experience of the author and his environment clearly indicates a positive effect. The application of the proposed methodology, which takes five minutes of eight evenings of each month, will allow you to improve your health, raise your emotional state and actively join the fight for longevity. A positive result is inevitable.

Ki. This situation significantly inhibits the development of this unique area in medicine.
