Is acupuncture effective in curing breast hyperplasia?

There are many treatments for breast hyperplasia, one of which is surgery. However, many patients do not need surgery yet. For example, they can take Western medicine treatment. In addition, there are many kinds of Chinese medicine that can help treat breast hyperplasia. In addition to Chinese medicine treatment, acupoint therapy, a traditional treatment method, is also effective for breast hyperplasia, so you can go to a regular institution for acupoint treatment.

Acupuncture points to treat breast hyperplasia:

To prevent and treat breast hyperplasia, in addition to clearing the channels on the feet, the channels on the chest also need to be cleared, with the first choice being the Tanzhong point (the midpoint of the line connecting the two nipples). You can use your thumb to rotate and massage the Tanzhong point. The specific operation can be carried out according to personal habits. The next step is to massage the lump area, either by pressing or acupressure. If you persist every day, you will get good results.

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that breast hyperplasia is mainly caused by poor blood circulation, and is closely related to women's psychology, living and eating habits. By massaging the acupoints of the liver and gallbladder meridians, the body's stagnation can be eliminated, and the smooth flow of qi and blood can be promoted, breast hyperplasia can be improved and eradicated during massage.

The acupoints for massage include Yuanxie, Zhejin, Sanyinjiao and Taichong. Among them, Yuanxie and Zhejin are the key points of the Gallbladder Meridian. When massaging, use your thumb to gently push from Yuanxie to Zhejin. This area is located diagonally above the breast and is more sensitive. You may feel some soreness at the beginning, which shows that the meridian is blocked here. Push gently 81 times, and then use the four fingers outside the thumb to gently rub the area between the two points. The technique can be gentler. Sanyinjiao is very useful for women, and Taichong is the original acupoint of the liver meridian. These two acupoints are very beneficial for dredging the meridians. When massaging, press each acupoint 180 times until you feel soreness and numbness. If you have time, rub your ribs again to further promote the treatment effect.

If it is mild hyperplasia that does not last long, you can usually feel the hyperplasia reduced or the pain disappear on the day of massage. The hyperplasia will be completely eliminated in one to half a month. If the hyperplasia is severe and lasts too long, you need to persist in massaging for a period of time and pay attention to adjusting your diet and psychology. Comprehensive treatment will definitely achieve the desired effect.
