What is the method of pediatric massage for wind-heat cold

We all know that there are many treatments for wind-heat colds in children. Drug treatment or acupuncture point massage can be used. Regarding the methods of massage for children's colds and wind-heat, we suggest that mothers can learn about it. This will be of great help in your daily care of your children. The following is an introduction to the methods of massage for children's wind-heat colds. I hope mothers can remember them well.

The specific method of massaging the spinal acupoints for children is to push along the child's spine, starting from the Dazhui acupoint and going down to the straight line between the coccyx, with the tips of the index and middle fingers from top to bottom, 100 to 300 times a day. In fact, the spinal point is a very important part of pediatric massage. It is the place where the Du meridian runs on the back of the Dazhui point. It runs through the entire spine and is closely connected with the internal organs in the chest and abdomen.

Therefore, the spinal points have the functions of regulating yin and yang, regulating qi and blood, harmonizing internal organs, and cultivating vital energy, etc., which can strengthen the body. The spinal points connect various meridians and penetrate the upper, middle and lower three burners. They can be used to treat diseases in various parts of the three burners, and have a warming, coordinating and promoting effect on the internal organs, tissues, organs, limbs and bones throughout the body. Therefore, massaging the spinal acupoints on children can adjust the balance of yin and yang, harmonize the functions of internal organs, promote the circulation of qi and blood, and dredge the meridians.

To be more specific, it can clear the lungs and open up the orifices, consolidate the exterior and promote yang, and prevent exogenous diseases such as colds, coughs, asthma, pharyngitis, etc. When children have a fever due to wind-heat, it has the effect of reducing fever. What’s even more rare is that massaging the spinal points can regulate the internal organs, so it is a method of treating both the symptoms and the root cause.

Of course, when children catch a cold due to wind-heat, parents must also provide adequate care. Wind-heat cold will cause the body to lose a lot of water, so the patient will have symptoms of thirst and desire to drink. I suggest that parents can make some pear juice for their children to drink to prevent them from losing water due to excessive sweating due to fever.

Through this article's introduction to massage methods for children's colds and wind-heat, I believe you all know that this method is helpful in relieving colds and wind-heat. If mothers can master this treatment method, they can reduce the number of times their children take medication, which is also helpful for their children's physical development.
