What is the massage technique for children's cough

Every family hopes to have a healthy baby, so the baby's health is also a concern of the parents. If the child is sick, the whole family will worry about it. The child is hope, so we must pay attention to the child's health problems in daily life. What should we do if the child has a cold and cough? What are the massage techniques for children's cough? Let's learn together.

The location of the lung axis is at the midpoint of the line connecting the two nipples on the front chest. Apply a little bit of baby powder or talcum powder as a medium for massage, or a little bit of egg white, which has a certain lubricating effect. For the convenience of operation, use the outer edge of the palm, which is the part of the hypothenar, place this part on the Danzhong point, and rub it quickly left and right or up and down. Rub it for a while longer and make sure to rub it until it is warm. This has a good cough-relieving effect. The second acupoint that is more effective for cough is Tiantu. When pressing the Tiantu point, please be careful not to press inward, as this will make children feel very uncomfortable. What should you do? We use these fingers to pinch gently, one by one, not too hard, as it will hurt the child. Pinch gently repeatedly, and after a while there will be a little bruising. This means we have achieved our goal. We want to pinch until there is slight bruising under the skin.

(1) Open Tianmen 100 times, push Kan Gong 50 times, rub Taiyang 100 times; hold Fengchi 5 times, hold Jianjing 10 times, hold Hegu 5 times; pinch and rub Ershanmen 30 times; push Sanguan 100 times, rub Wailaogong 100 times; rub Tiantu 100 times, and rub Tanzhong until the heat penetrates.

(2) Clear the stomach meridian 100 times, clear the large intestine meridian 100 times; rub the small Tianxin 50 times, clear the Tianhe water 100 times, retreat the six internal organs 300 times; rub the Tiantu 100 times, open the Xuanji 100 times each; divide the back yin and yang and the abdomen 100 times each.

The following points should be noted when using traditional Chinese massage to treat children’s cough:

(1) Due to the physiological and anatomical characteristics of the respiratory tract, allergic factors and low immune function in children, coughing is often easily induced. During treatment, attention should be paid to eliminating the inducing factors. Traditional Chinese massage has a good effect in treating this disease, but if the symptoms worsen, it needs to be treated with traditional Chinese medicine; if accompanied by malnutrition, anemia and rickets, reasonable feeding should be given and the primary disease should be actively prevented and treated.

(2) The prerequisite for TCM massage treatment of children’s cough is to exclude cough caused by tuberculosis and tumor.

(3) Actively treat acute and chronic respiratory infectious diseases, pay attention to isolation, and prevent cross infection.

(4) Pay attention to climate changes and prevent catching cold; keep the indoor air circulating and avoid stimulation from gas, dust, smoke, oil and other fumes.

The above are about massage techniques for children's cough. I hope all parents and friends can learn from them. Don’t underestimate massage. It can effectively treat many diseases. For those who don’t want to give their children injections or medication, you can insist on using massage methods, which can help children relieve cough symptoms. Parents and friends, come and try it, it is actually very effective.
