A little exercise can make your kidneys healthier

Kidney deficiency troubles the health and life of many people, especially when the disease occurs, the normal order of life will be "disrupted" due to back pain, fatigue, incontinence, etc. So, what small exercises in life can help people prevent kidney deficiency? This is a question that many people are concerned about. Let's take a look.

Do anal contraction exercises every day

Modern people's lives are busy and stressful. Many people are too busy with their careers to have enough time and energy to participate in whole-body physical exercise. Long-term lack of exercise will inevitably bring hidden dangers to their health. This type of people can do anal contraction exercises.

Anal contraction is the regular contraction of the anus. The "rejuvenation technique" mentioned in traditional Chinese medicine includes anal contraction exercises. This exercise does not take much time, but the effects are significant, and it is not an exaggeration to describe it as "affordable".

For men, regularly contracting the anus is an effective and gentle massage for the prostate. It can promote venous blood return in the perineum, reduce prostate congestion and inflammation, and is very helpful in preventing and assisting in the treatment of prostate diseases. This method can also effectively prevent perianal venous congestion, enhance the anus's ability to resist disease, and has a good preventive and therapeutic effect on hemorrhoids, anal fissures, rectal prolapse, constipation, chronic colitis, etc. that are common in middle-aged and elderly people.

Daily waist massage

Massaging the waist can promote blood circulation in the area near the kidneys and also has a certain nourishing effect on the kidneys. The specific method is: rub your palms together until they are warm, then place them on both sides of the waist, with your palms facing the skin, and massage the waist up and down until you feel warm. Once in the morning and once in the evening, about 200 times each time.

Soaking your feet at 9 pm is the best way to protect your kidneys

According to traditional Chinese medicine, the soles of the feet are the starting and ending points of various meridians, and are distributed with more than 60 acupuncture points and reflex areas connected to the internal organs of the human body, which correspond to the five internal organs of the human body. Foot soaking can relax the meridians and improve blood circulation. Most people know that soaking your feet has benefits, but many people don’t know that soaking your feet at different time periods has slightly different effects. If you want to protect your kidneys, it is best to soak your feet around 9 o'clock in the evening for the best effect.

The reason for choosing this time period to nourish the kidneys is that this is the time when the qi and blood of the kidney meridian are relatively weak. When soaking your feet at this time, the body heat will increase, and the blood vessels in the body will expand, which is beneficial to blood circulation, thereby promoting blood circulation in the body. At the same time, the nerves that have been tense all day and the kidneys that have been tired all day can be completely relaxed and fully regulated by soaking your feet at this time, and people will feel comfortable.
