Chinese medicine believes that the main causes of cardiovascular diseases are heart-kidney disharmony, heart-lung qi obstruction, deficiency of both heart and spleen, stagnation of heart and liver, etc., so that drinking water can make the heart linger, phlegm fascinates the heart, blood stasis blocks the blood vessels of the heart or pericardium, and the heart's vitality is damaged, so that it cannot play its due role.
the heart governs the blood vessels, and the heart hides the mind. The heart belongs to fire in the five elements, the heart is dirty with fire, and the candle shines on everything; The heart is the yang, while the yang governs. Huangdi Neijing says that the mind is the official of the monarch, and the gods are out. Therefore, the heart is the master of internal organs and the master of life. When the heart itself comes on, there are eight symptoms: jumping, fear, fatigue, confusion, panic, boredom, obstruction and pain. Mental illness with seven emotions of joy, anger, worry, thinking, sadness, fear and shock due to anxiety.
Chinese medicine inspection has great advantages for early diagnosis of heart disease. Chinese medicine believes that the heart and small intestine, pulse, face, tongue and so on constitute the heart system, not just the heart organs. You can observe the root of the nose. According to the facial holography, the root of the mountain between the eyes corresponds to the heart. Therefore, if there are stripes at the root of the mountain, it means that there are problems with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and its symptoms mostly show the potential of hyperlipidemia, arteriosclerosis and coronary heart disease.
In addition to the striation at the root of the mountain between the eyes on the face, there are several other criteria for the diagnosis of heart disease by Chinese medicine: 1) the shape of coronary groove is found in the earlobe; 2) Obvious veins stood out or were purple-black around Shenmen and Neiguan points at the wrist transverse stripes; 3) Black or purple veins appear under the tongue; 4) Lips or nails are bluish purple. At the same time, with the pulse diagnosis, the pulse rate is uneven, and there are intermittent pulse conditions.
Traditional Chinese medicine mainly uses Danshen and Sanqi to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.
Three treatments for cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases simultaneously:
1) Drug therapy should control blood lipid, cholesterol, blood pressure and blood sugar at normal indexes, and adopt different treatment methods such as activating qi, warming meridians, promoting blood circulation and resolving phlegm to fundamentally restore the vital function of heart and brain.
2) Aerobic exercise, such as walking, is the main activity of dynamic therapy. Walking can well dissipate the emotional persistence through the changes in the external environment. Do not advocate strenuous exercise for people with cardiac encephalopathy.
The famous saying in Huangdi Neijing: "Calm and nothingness, follow the true qi, keep the spirit inside, and be safe from illness?" Quiet and refreshing, optimistic and happy. It's essential for TCM to nourish the heart, and it's also a good way to treat contemporary people's mental diseases.
3) Dietotherapy is to make cardiovascular and cerebrovascular metabolism healthy and orderly, and the diet should be combined with thickness: try a little thick food, less sugar and salt, don't drink too much, and don't eat too much greasy, cold, fried and barbecued; Thin taste means that the diet is mainly light, and every meal can be seven minutes full. In short, diet should pay attention to six words, namely, low fat and high fiber.
to regulate the heart, one is to adjust the mood and keep the mood happy, because the stagnation of anger will make the heart and brain stagnate with blood stasis; Second, maintain a good quality of sleep, because staying up late and overworking is easy to premature aging; Third, medicine and food should be treated together, and the combination of dietotherapy and medicine is better.
heart disease can also play a good role through acupuncture and massage at acupoints.
The main acupoints include Neiguan, Shanzhong and Xinshu. The heart is the leader of the human body. If the regulating function of the heart declines, life will get out of control. The heart is in charge of the blood vessels of the human body, while the blood vessels are weak due to heart-qi deficiency, and the body is prone to aging if it is not nourished; The heart also dominates the mental activities of the human body. If the mind is out of balance, it will lead to mental decline, which will easily lead to physical decline. Lack of nourishment of the heart will not only cause cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, but also lead to premature aging.
the heart controls people's emotions, so a calm mind means that the viscera are self-regulated, the pulse is self-smooth, and the qi and blood are self-balanced, so that the body can gradually return to balance from disorder and imbalance, and it is naturally refreshed, healthy and happy.
