"If you don't lose weight in May, you'll regret it in June, get sunburnt in July, stay indoors in August, get fatter in September, be tired from blind dates in October, have no one to accompany you in November, and have no measurements in December..." It's already May, so what are you waiting for? Here are some traditional Chinese medicine weight loss tips for you to learn!

Several important acupressure points and massage methods believed by traditional Chinese medicine to have slimming effects:

Eliminate "belly fat" with Tian Shu

Location: Tian Shu point is located about 2 inches beside the navel on both sides.

Massage Method:

After each meal, use the palm root to massage the right Tian Shu for about 1 minute, then massage the left Tian Shu for 1 minute, rest for a moment, and then massage both sides again. Massaging Tian Shu also helps with bowel movements. Therefore, by frequently massaging Tian Shu, not only can you eliminate belly fat, but you can also solve constipation problems, killing two birds with one stone.

For food lovers trying to lose weight, Zu San Li is crucial

Location: Place four fingers horizontally under the knee bone, and one horizontal finger width below the fourth finger outside edge is Zu San Li.

Massage Method:

A good way for food lovers to resist temptation is to sit on a stool half an hour before meals, bend the four fingers, place them on the outside of the calf, correctly position the fingertips of the thumb on Zu San Li acupoint, and perform pressing movements, pressing and releasing 36 times. Exchange sides and repeat.

Eliminate "love handles" with Dai Mai

Location: Draw a horizontal line from the navel and a vertical line from the armpit. The intersection of the two lines is the Dai Mai point, an important point for eliminating "love handles".

Tapping Method:

Every night before bed, tap Dai Mai horizontally about fifty times, focusing on tapping the Dai Mai point about one hundred times. This method has a significant effect on restoring the ability of the Dai Mai to restrain, reducing waist and abdominal fat.

This method is especially beneficial for office workers who sit for long periods, effectively eliminating abdominal fat and giving you a slender waist.

For those with bloated weight, Feng Long is the key point

Location: Find the two points of the knee and outer ankle on the outside of the leg, connect them to form a line, then find the midpoint of this line, and then find the shin bone on the leg. Feng Long point is located 1.5 inches outside the front edge of the shin bone, approximately the width of two fingers, and align with the midpoint.

Massage Method:

Place the left (right) lower limb flat on the opposite knee joint, place the fingertips of the middle finger of the right (left) hand on the Feng Long point, with the thumb on the opposite side, and press firmly for 0.5-1 minute.
