Sometimes, the cause of the disease is inexplicable. We think about it, but we can't figure out that it is because of a certain reason.
No wonder, who made our bodies so complicated.
Let me tell you something that I have experienced first. A friend kept asking me why his mother was in poor health. Her spleen and stomach system was in a mess. She had poor appetite, indigestion, frequent colds and coughs, and was also losing weight. At first, I gave some dietary treatment methods based on the symptoms, which I thought were enough, but they all came to nothing, or they were temporarily effective, and then they were the same as before. Therefore, the old man always suspected that he was terminally ill, and checked everywhere, the more he suspected, the worse his health became, but no terminal illness was found.
Later, I discovered the reason by chance. It turned out that in order to take care of the children at home, the old man lived at his son's house and slept on the sofa in the living room for a long time.
When I heard about sleeping on the sofa, I was shocked. I had seen some people like this before, so I immediately asked the old man to go to an osteopath to adjust his spine. At the same time, I told them that the old man must be adjusted to sleep on the bed.
Later, with diet therapy, the old man's body slowly recovered.
So, why is this? Many friends will ask: "Oh my God, is there any problem with this? Because I work overtime, I often sleep on the sofa! Is there any problem with this?"
I believe that many people have slept on the sofa, but don't believe me, sleeping on the sofa will cause physical disorders!
A friend asked: Why is this?
Let me explain the truth behind this. Generally, our beds are very flat, with four bed legs generally aligned, and the mattress is flat. When sleeping, our body lies flat on the bed, and the force is evenly distributed, so there is no problem. However, this sofa is not prepared for sleeping, so no matter how good the sofa is, the seat cushions are not that flat. Most sofas have high and low heights and various curvatures. Even the sofa bed, when it is pulled out, because of the Some places are supported by small pulleys, and some places are supported by pillars, so they are all different, and there will be subtle differences, which will make the height slightly uneven.
Some friends would say: "What's the point of this injustice?"
Dear friends, don’t underestimate this imbalance. When sleeping, your body will try to maintain stability and balance, so it will push to one side. This is the body’s instinctive reaction. You may still be sleeping, but , this kind of instinctive effort of the body will make you consume your physical strength on the one hand, so many people sleep on the sofa and feel very soft when sleeping. However, after sleeping for several days in a row, you will feel more tired, especially in the early morning. Feeling "unrelieved".
On the other hand, what is really scary is that this imbalance will lead to distortion of the spine, which will have a greater impact.
We can make an analogy. In fact, our internal organs seem to be hung on the spine. Our spine has a spinal canal that runs up and down. The spinal cord is located in the spinal canal and is connected to the brain.
Our 31 pairs of spinal nerves, as well as visceral nerves, come out of the spinal canal and enter the body, skin, and internal organs to control various life movements of the human body.
What we often call autonomic nerves are the nerves that control the smooth muscles, myocardium and glands of internal organs. They are mainly distributed in internal organs, blood vessels, heart, glands and other smooth muscles. They are also called visceral nerves. They include both sympathetic nerves and parasympathetic nerves. part. The parasympathetic nerves originate from the brainstem and sacral portion of the spinal cord, and the sympathetic nerves originate from the thoracolumbar region of the spinal cord. Many organs have dual innervation of sympathetic and parasympathetic nerves, and the two functions are often antagonistic and coordinated to maintain the normal activities of the organs.
Therefore, the normal position of the spine can ensure that the nervous system is not affected, and the normal activities of internal organs can be coordinated normally.
However, sometimes, some abnormal movements lead to spinal joint misalignment and compression of nerves, which can cause disorders of visceral function. As a result, there are even hundreds of diseases! Yes, you read that right, it does cause a lot of diseases! The most obvious of these are heart disease, gastrointestinal disorders, and pain of all kinds.
These actions that lead to spinal joint disorders often occur in our lives, including: sleeping on an uneven bed, taking a nap on the armrest of the sofa at noon, lying sideways on the sofa watching TV, incorrect sitting postures, etc.
Some people just sleep on the sofa with their sideways pillows all morning. Because the armrests of the sofa are very high, their heads bulge and their bodies become twisted. As a result, they develop serious internal diseases. This kind of disease cannot be cured by taking medicine. Recovery can only be achieved through chiropractic manipulation.
Lying sideways on the sofa and watching TV is also a habit of many people. I guess few people would think that this habit is the cause of all their diseases.
As for the uneven bed, it is also a reason. When I was studying for a Ph.D., I used to rent a house to live in. The quality of the bed was not good, and there was a collapse in the middle, so the bed was slanted. I didn’t pay attention to this at first, but then I felt chest pain. I couldn't find the reason, and then I had severe diarrhea once. That time, I had to go to the bathroom almost every 30 seconds. The watery diarrhea was unbearably painful and painful, and the medicine had no effect. So helpless, I thought this was the only way left at this time, so I sat on a chair and began to massage the acupuncture points on my back to make adjustments. As a result, within about five minutes, the diarrhea stopped, and then it recovered. . This made me realize that the problem might be caused by my spinal joint disorder, but what happened to my spine? I searched and searched and found the reason. It was the spinal joint disorder caused by sleeping on an uneven bed, so I immediately asked someone to repair the bed. As a result, even the symptoms of chest pain disappeared.
Spondyloarthritis and dislocation, one of the more frequent consequences is diarrhea. Mine was more critical, and it is probably the result of cumulative outbreaks. Many people's long-term diarrhea may also be related to this.
Thinking about it now, the ancients paid attention to "sitting has a sitting posture, and standing has a standing posture". This is not nonsense, and it makes sense in it.
Therefore, some people's diseases have existed for a long time, but drugs are difficult to solve. At this time, we should consider whether there are such factors in our living habits. If you think it is, you can find a nearby Chinese medicine doctor to see if there is a doctor who knows the chiropractic and can help check and adjust it.
Similar therapies are also very popular abroad, such as the famous American chiropractic (Chiropractic), which is already a very mature subject. They treat many internal diseases by resetting the spinal joints. When I was a doctor, I I remember that at that time, the number of chiropractors in the United States should have been more than 80,000.
In China, some masters of Chinese medicine may have very good techniques, and the techniques may vary. However, in terms of popularity, I think the number of chiropractic doctors in the United States, compared to their population, should be doing well. Very very good.
These days, because I found another old man who slept on the sofa for nearly a month, causing repeated stomach pains, diarrhea and other problems, so I remembered this, so I wrote this article to introduce it. If you want to know more, you can Go search for more information to read.
It should be said that not every time you sleep on the sofa will cause such problems, but it will indeed increase the proportion of problems. Those friends who occasionally sleep for a day or two do not need to worry too much, and those who, in order to save space, sleep on the sofa for a long time People must be alert.
