当今时代,不少人患有慢性病,如高血压、糖尿病、失眠等。诚然,西医在诊断方面有能力,但是要治好这些病,所起的作用却非常有限,除了带给患者肝肾的负担,还需能量消化大量化学药物。随着越来越多的人意识到这个突出的问题,人们正尝试一些自愈疗法,比如拍打拉筋,健康食疗,自然
音乐疗法或瑜伽。”

中医经典《黄帝内经》曰:凡病皆为经络不通(针灸乃基于经络,那是体内能量通道)。因此,疏通淤堵的经络,让气血在经络顺畅流动,病就消除了。拍打拉筋源于远古智慧,属于其中的一种疗法。拍打就是拍打身体,如果有淤堵,你将看到表皮上出痧(是一种毒血);拉筋就是拉伸筋腱(拉筋时有痛,意味着有淤堵)。

拉筋是一种拉伸筋腱的简单方法。俗话说,“骨正筋柔,气血自流”。拉筋软化你的筋腱,疏通淤堵的经络,从而帮助治愈疾病。

怎样拉筋?

首先,你可能需要一张拉筋凳。如果没有,就把两张凳子靠墙并在一起也成,不过效果就不如使用拉筋凳。

有了拉筋凳,你先躺在拉筋凳上。

然后,你需要在其中一个脚踝加上重物或沙袋,比方说从左脚开始。负重大小要根据自己的承受力大小来决定。对成年人,7磅作为起始重量是安全的。(请注意,让拉筋更有效果,负重是必不可少的步骤)

然后绑紧另一条腿(此次是右腿),该腿靠在拉筋杆上,用绑带在大腿靠近膝盖处固定,这样就不会伤到膝盖。

最后,手背往后伸直,这样可以帮助减缓肩周炎。有肩周炎的,手背就做不到往后伸直平放。肩周越严重,就会更痛。有肩周炎这种情形,手上就要加一定重物,就像拉你的腿一样,拉伸你的手臂。一条腿拉筋完毕后,换另一条腿,方法相同。

这个方法非常简单,5分钟就能学会。刚开始练拉筋时,拉的时间可以短一点,比如5分钟,然后逐渐延长时间。记住,当膝盖下面或胯部有痛疼感时,说明气血在开始移除淤堵,你的自愈系统在启动工作。这是个有效的方法,对腰腿疼,高血压已及其它慢性病都有效。你需要的只是一张拉筋凳,然后你就可以扔掉所有的止痛药,开始你的自愈之旅。

既然如此,试试拉筋又何妨?!

How to do Lajin (stretching) – an Effective Self-healing Method for Lower Back and Leg Pains

Author Rachel SHU

Nowadays, many people have chronic diseases like hypertension, diabetes, insomnia, etc. While western medicine is efficient in diagnosis, it cannot really do much to cure these diseases, except by introducing the liver and kidney to the burden of digesting a huge bunch of chemical pills. As more and more people realize that, they try some self-healing methods like Paidalajin (Chinese word for a combination of slapping and stretching) or healthy diets and natural healing like music or Yoga.

According to the ancient Chinese medicine bible – the Yellow Emperor’s Classic of Internal Medicine – every single disease is caused by blockages in the meridian systems (acupuncture is based on meridians which is the energy channel in your body). So if you can remove the blockage, and make the Qi (the pushing power for moving the energy and blood in the body) and blood run smoothly again in the meridians, then the diseases are cured. Paidalajin which stemmed from this ancient wisdom is one of these methods; in which, paida means slapping on the body, and then you will see the Sha (poisoned blood) appear on the skin if there were blockages there; while Lajin means stretching the tendons. (Whenever there are blockages, you will feel the pain during Lajin)

Basically Lajin is a simple way to stretch your tendons. There is an old saying in China, which is “骨正筋柔,气血自流 – Whenever your bones are in correct direction and your tendons are soft, blood and Qi will circulate smoothly by themselves”. Lajin removes the blockages through softening your tendons, and thus help cure diseases.

So how to do Lajin?

First of all, you may need a lajin bench. If you don’t have, two chairs putting together side by side to the corner of a wall would also work, although the effect may not be as good as if you use a lajin bench.

Suppose you already has a lajin bench; then, first of all, you need to lie down on the bench.

And then, you need to add certain weight or sandbags to one of your ankles, say, let’s start from the left leg. Regarding how much weight to add, it depends on how much you can handle, however, 7 pounds is a safe start point for an adult. (Please note, weight is a must-have step for making Lajin more effective.)

Then fasten the other leg – the right one in this case – to the post of the bench with a strap, better to put the strap above the knee, so you won’t hurt your knee.

At last, you need to put your arms straight ahead, which can help relieve frozen shoulders. When you have shoulder problems, you cannot really lay your arms straight ahead. It will hurt a lot depending on how sick your shoulder is. Then in this situation, just like adding weight to legs, you need to get a certain weight for the hands, which will help you stretch your arms like it does for your legs. After you finish Lajin for one leg, you can then switch the weight to right one, and fasten your left leg to the post.

It’s a simple method, and you can learn it within just five minutes. You can start your Lajin practice for a short time period, aka, 5 minutes, and add the time gradually. Remember, whenever you feel the pains from under your knees or your groin, Qi and blood are starting to remove the blockages, and your self-healing method is starting to work. This is an effective method for lower back, leg pain, hypertension, and lots of other chronic problems. All you need is a lajin bench, and then you can throw away all the pain killers, and start to heal all by yourself.

Well, it doesn’t hurt to give a try!
