As the weather gets colder in autumn, many people are busy changing their autumn clothes, but they often overlook the importance of keeping important parts of their body warm, such as the belly button and ankles, which can cause great harm to the body. Therefore, women must pay attention to keeping warm in these areas in autumn.
[Important parts for women to keep warm in autumn]
1. Head
Once the head gets cold, it can cause symptoms such as cold, rhinitis, and headache. Therefore, keeping the head warm is very important for overall body warmth. Wearing a hat in winter is the best choice, and it is best to cover the forehead.
2. Waist
For women, it is especially important to keep the waist warm. If the waist gets cold, it can cause back pain and affect menstruation, leading to menstrual disorders and dysmenorrhea. Women should avoid exposing their waist in autumn and winter, and use their hands to rub their waist to help promote kidney qi circulation and enhance blood circulation.
3. Feet
Cold hands and feet in women during winter are often caused by insufficient blood and poor blood circulation. Women who like to wear leggings with short skirts should pay attention. It is best to soak their feet in hot water every night to promote blood circulation, activate meridians, and keep the whole body warm.
4. Back
Keeping the back warm is indeed very important. If women neglect to keep their back warm, they are prone to cold invasion, which can lower immune function and make them more susceptible to illness. You can add a vest to your regular clothing, and when the weather is good, expose your back to the sun.
[Common waist protection methods for women in autumn]

Press the lumbar sacral area: Lie face down, press both palms on the painful area of the waist, one cycle for one breath, do 10-15 times;
Rub the waist and back: In the morning or before bed or during breaks, use both hands to rub, press, and massage the waist and back muscles 50-100 times, while twisting the waist;
