The Benefits of Massage: Big Fish Border Point for Constipation, Cold Prevention, and More

March 25, 2024

  The Fish Border Point is an important acupuncture point on the palm of the human body. It belongs to the Lung Meridian and can be divided into the Big Fish Border and the Small Fish Border. Let's take a look at the accurate location of the Big Fish Border Point and the benefits of massaging it.
 


 

  Accurate location: The Big Fish Border Point is located on the front of the palm, at the base of the thumb, extending down to the palm root. It is a prominent area with rich muscles that can be clearly seen when the palm is spread open.

  1. Treating constipation

  Massaging the acupuncture point of the Lung Meridian can help clear intestinal heat, relieve intestinal dryness, and facilitate bowel movements.

  Method of massaging the Big Fish Border Point: Use the thumb of one hand to vigorously rub the Big Fish Border Point of the other hand. It should feel warm, and each rubbing session should last for 5 minutes. Then, switch hands and rub the Big Fish Border Point of the other hand using the same method. It is best to massage before defecation (scheduled defecation) to relieve and treat constipation effectively.

  2. Preventing colds

  Regularly massaging this point can help relieve surface symptoms, soothe the throat, and dissolve phlegm. It also has a significant effect on early symptoms of colds, such as sore throat and sneezing.

  Method of massaging the Big Fish Border Point: Place both hands together, making sure that the Big Fish Border Points of both hands are in contact and rub until both hands feel warm. Alternatively, one hand can remain stationary while the other hand massages it.

  Then, rub the hands alternately for 1 to 2 minutes until the palms become warm. This can promote blood circulation in the Big Fish Border Points, unblock meridians, strengthen the respiratory system, resist cold viruses, and improve immune function.
 


 

  3. Boosting immune function

  Massaging the Big Fish Border Point can promote blood circulation, unblock meridians, enhance the function of the lungs in maintaining the skin and hair, and help the body resist external evils. It can also improve susceptibility and achieve the effects of health preservation.

  Method of massaging the Big Fish Border Point: Place the tiger's mouth of the left and right hands together and use the thumb of the right hand to knead the Big Fish Border Point of the left hand (below the thumb, where the muscle is prominent) until the palm feels warm. Then, switch to using the thumb of the left hand to knead the Big Fish Border Point of the right hand. Repeat this massage 2-3 times a day.

  4. Improving heart function

  Method of massaging the Big Fish Border Point: If you suddenly feel palpitations, angina, or chest tightness and extreme discomfort, immediately use the fingertip of the thumb to pinch and knead the Big Fish Border Point. Pinch and knead it firmly with gravity nine times, preferably with the thumb upside down, using this strong stimulation to relieve pressure on the heart.

  Using the method of massaging the Big Fish Border Point for first aid is like taking six heart-saving pills.

  Reminder: This method is only supplementary. When feeling unwell, seek medical attention in a timely manner. Do not treat massage as a "heart-saving pill".

  5. Eliminating limb fatigue

  Massaging the Fish Border Point on the hand can relieve limb fatigue. Especially for those who work with computers, they should massage the Fish Border Point regularly to relieve fatigue in the arms and wrists.

  Method of massaging the Big Fish Border Point: During the massage, you can use the thumb of the other hand to push up and down near the Fish Border Point or tap the Fish Border Points of both hands against each other until the palms feel warm. The number of massages should be determined based on the individual's physical condition, generally 1-2 times a day, with a duration of about 10 minutes.
