CLINICAL APPROACH

"Cold" is a concept peculiar to oriental medicine. Not many people care about "coldness", probably because it is not in the way of thinking of Western medicine. However, in reality, this "coldness" is often the root cause of various physical disorders. The average body temperature of Japanese people in 1957 was 36.9 degrees. However, the number of people below 36 degrees is increasing now. The reason why the body temperature has dropped may be that the spread of air conditioners and refrigerators has led to the constant cooling of the body.

The clay of blood changes depending on the temperature. When the temperature of the blood drops, it becomes muddy, and when the temperature of the blood rises, it becomes smooth. Therefore, when hypothermia occurs, blood flow is blocked. Blood is constantly circulating in the body, but red blood cells carry oxygen and white blood cells are responsible for immunity. Platelets repair damage, and plasma carries nutrients, waste products, and heat. Hypothermia causes blood to stagnate, preventing oxygen, glucose, and amino acids from being carried to cells throughout the body. If not sent to the cell, the cell will not be able to metabolize. Not only will you not be able to make what you need, but you will not be able to break extra things. If platelets are not carried, even if the blood vessels are damaged, they cannot be repaired easily. If you can't get rid of the waste products that don't need blood, the waste products will accumulate in the blood vessels and make it more difficult for blood to flow. If white blood cells cannot reach the place when they are needed, the immune system of the entire body is weakened. If blood stagnates due to coldness like this, this vicious cycle will continue.

When blood circulation is poor, cells become active. When the heat production rate drops and the body temperature drops, enzymes cannot be produced either. When gene repair enzymes stop working, abnormal proteins increase, leading to the development and growth of cancer. The human body is a collection of about 60 trillion cells. Bones, muscles, organs, everything is made up of one cell. If each cell can be rejuvenated, the whole body will naturally go to a healthy state.

When you are stressed, your heart is disturbed. When the mind is disturbed, the sympathetic nerves become active and the autonomic nervous system fails. The autonomic nerve is a nerve that controls the functions of internal organs, hormones, and immunity, but it is an important function that is indispensable for life support. It is the function of the autonomic nerves that the heart is fluttering when running, and the gastrointestinal tract moves freely when eating, and it automatically controls the body without thinking about things in the brain. If this function fails, every part of the body will be upset. Prolonged periods of stress-damaged autonomic nerves and cold-induced hypothermia cause most illnesses. Patients with cancer, depression, infertility, etc. almost always have cold symptoms. When I put my hand on the belly of those people, it makes me feel sick.

There are several causes of coldness, one of which is the accumulation of water in the body. The body gets cold due to the accumulation of water and poor blood flow, and the water metabolism decreases, causing swelling.

Furthermore, it is said that excess water due to swelling presses on blood vessels and lymph vessels, worsening blood circulation and worsening circulation. As the circulation gets worse, the body gets colder and the swelling cannot be removed. If this condition becomes chronic, you may fall into a spiral of swelling and coldness.

If you feel cold, you should consider that something is wrong with your body. We often deal with herbal therapy using Thai traditional massage and herbal balls. It warms up while being aware of the energy lines of the whole body. The abdominal treatment, which is the core of Zang-fu, may take 90 minutes or more to perform Chi Nei Thang.
