What is the best way to treat children’s cough and asthma?

In the city, you can see massage parlors everywhere. These massage parlors are big and small. Due to the differences in levels, the prices of massage services are different, and the massage techniques are also different. We can find that the people who get massages in massage parlors are generally adults. They go for massages when they are free at work, and regard it as a form of entertainment and relaxation. We rarely see children going to massage parlors for massages. Recently, a new massage treatment for children's cough and asthma has emerged.

Pediatric massage method: 1. Recurrent exogenous cough can be treated with conventional pediatric massage techniques of "three supplements, two kneadings, and one pinching and pressing". Three supplements: refers to supplementing the spleen earth, supplementing the lung metal, and supplementing the kidney water. 1) Tonify spleen and earth: the patient's palm is facing upward, and the doctor pushes along the side of the patient's thumb from the finger tip to the base 100 times; 2) Tonify lung and metal: the patient's palm is facing upward, and the doctor pushes along the palm of the patient's ring finger from the finger tip to the base 100 times;

3) Replenishing kidney water: The patient's palms are facing upwards, and the doctor uses the thumb of his right hand to push along the tip of the patient's little finger toward the base of the finger 100 times. The second massage refers to massaging the Tanzhong point and the Feishu point. 1)

Rubbing the lung point: The doctor presses the lung point tightly with the index and middle fingers, and rubs and rotates in a clockwise direction 100 times. One pinch and press: refers to pinching the spine and pressing the strings and rubbing. 1)

Spinal pinching: pinch from the tip of the coccyx to the big vertebra 3-5 times, and then press the lung point, stomach point, and spleen point 10 times each; 2)

As the saying goes: Every medicine is poisonous. For children, it is best to take as little medicine as possible, and not take it if possible. The editor believes that if massage therapy for pediatric cough and asthma is effective, it can be developed quickly, so that children can quickly get rid of cough and asthma without taking medicine, which is a good thing for children.
