The head is the leader of all yang energy in the body, and the yang energy converges at the top of the head. Therefore, the head is prone to heat ailments. Combing the hair can help to disperse the heat and promote the metabolism of the hair, keeping it shiny. It also has a preventive effect on hair loss. However, if hair loss has already developed into a condition (such as hair loss in young people or large patches of hair loss), it is necessary to combine acupressure on the whole body for effective treatment. This article discusses the prevention and treatment of general hair loss or the use of this method before hair loss occurs.
The specific method of combing is as follows: Sit upright and use the five fingers of both hands to comb from the front hairline to the back hairline. Place the thumbs on the temples and the four fingers of each hand at intervals on the front hairline. Then, the fingertips of each finger should touch the scalp, combing the hair backward until reaching the back hairline. This is considered one time. Repeat this process 36 times, combing from the front hairline to the back hairline each time.
