The human body has five major health zones, located in the back, spine, anterior chest, abdomen around the navel, and ears. By taking good care of these five zones every day during winter, you can promote metabolism, boost your body's natural defenses, and thereby achieve the effects of strengthening your body, preventing diseases, and extending longevity.
Zone One: The Abdomen Around the Navel
Health preservation keywords: Eliminating abdominal fat, preventing and treating constipation.
The abdominal region around the navel is a crucial "stronghold" for health preservation emphasized by wellness experts. In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), the central part of the abdomen, specifically the navel, is referred to as the "Shenque". Massaging and stimulating this area for adjustment can benefit the lungs, strengthen the kidneys, calm the mind, soothe the liver, promote bile secretion, regulate the three Jiaos (regions of the body according to TCM theory), and help prevent diseases while promoting physical well-being.
