Traditional Chinese Medicine Techniques for Belly Fat Reduction

February 15, 2024

Office workers are most prone to developing belly fat. However, losing weight is as difficult as a "long march," and few people can stick to it. So how do we get rid of that stubborn belly fat? Let's take a look at the traditional Chinese medicine abdominal massage method.


【Foot Massage for Weight Loss】

Method 1: Tap the soles of the feet

Tap the soles of your feet with your fists before bed every night. This can help eliminate fatigue, promote blood circulation throughout the body, enhance the detoxification function of the internal organs, improve the excretion function of blood vessels, and speed up fat burning.

Procedure: Start from the center of the foot, tap with a rhythmic motion, and go for a slightly painful sensation. Repeat about 100 times per foot, and complete the exercise in about 2 minutes.

Method 2: Shake the feet

Poor blood circulation throughout the body can lead to the dysfunction of internal organs and endocrine disorders, resulting in the accumulation of toxins and slow metabolism, leading to obesity. Simple stimulation of the feet can promote blood circulation and accelerate metabolism.

Procedure: Lie on your back on the bed or floor, first shake your feet in the air, and then rotate your feet as if you are pedaling a bicycle. Continue for 2 minutes to improve blood circulation, burn fat, and help improve sleep.

Method 3: Walk barefoot

The biggest advantage of this method is that it provides an opportunity to exercise the palms, which is an important part of maintaining balance during massage. When walking, try to stimulate the palms as much as possible. You can try walking on pebble paths or prepare a mat with round protrusions at home.

Procedure: Separating the toes is also a major advantage of walking barefoot. To lose weight and maintain good health, try to free your feet from shoes and socks at home and walk barefoot. Keep it up for 2 minutes.

Slimming strategy: Foot massage can help with weight loss, so stick to it for ten minutes every day!

Method 4: Massage the toes

Massaging the toes not only helps with weight loss but also enhances memory.

Procedure: You can hold the big toes of both feet with your hands and massage them in a circular motion. Massage several times a day for 2 minutes each time. You can also rub the outer side of the little toe in a circular motion with your hand. Since memory is related to the cerebellum, and the little toe is the reflex zone of the cerebellum, massaging the little toe can help enhance memory. Massage for 2 minutes.

Method 5: Rub the feet

Rub the feet together to stimulate blood circulation until the feet feel warm. This can enhance the detoxification and fat burning effects in a short period of time.

Procedure: Lie on your back on the bed or floor, lift your feet and rub them against each other. It is even better to rub them with both hands at the same time. Rub for about 20 times with force, about 2 minutes. This method also helps with sleep.


【Acupressure Weight Loss】
