In winter, the elderly can adopt different health care methods according to different time periods: morning, noon, and evening.
Morning: Rubbing Hands
In the morning, you can rub the palms and massage the fingers to stimulate the Laogong acupoint in the palms. This can excite the heart and enhance the function of the respiratory system, thus promoting health.
Noon: Sunning the Back
Sunning the back at noon can replenish the body's yang energy. You can also take off your hat while sunbathing to allow sunlight to enter the body through the Baihui acupoint on the top of the head.
Evening: Foot Soaking
When soaking your feet, the heat from the water can enter the whole body through the soles of the feet, nourishing the kidney and liver meridians. The Yongquan acupoint on the soles of the feet is the starting point of the kidney meridian. By stimulating it with hot water in the evening, you can effectively eliminate fatigue and replenish kidney energy.
