Are you more likely to suffer from plantar fasciitis?
Read the post to find out the common causes that lead to plantar fasciitis.

Understand the causes will help you to better manage the heel pain. If you experience pain when you are running frequently, you may cut down on the frequency and do some other exercises which does not put pressure on the heel, like swimming instead. If you still like to run despite the pain, you may need advice from professionals on how to manage the pain with exercises.

很高兴今天能通过958电台 在空中与大家分享，从中医角度认识高胆固醇（高脂血症）。其中介绍了一款简单又酸甜好喝的降脂茶饮，山楂陈皮苹果茶。大家可参照以下做法准备茶饮：
1. 山楂片及陈皮洗干净后，直接放在锅内浸泡10分钟；
2. 苹果取芯切块后，放入锅内，
3. 加入水，大火煮滚后，小火煮20分钟即可。

山楂可降血脂，活血化瘀，茶饮中须用山楂干，不可用超市买的山楂饼，那类山楂饼80-90%都是糖分。

陈皮也可降血脂，也可行气化痰，不要用新年时吃的柑皮，晒了几天后泡水，这个作用不大，也需要到药材店里买陈皮。

苹果在加热后，它的多酚类抗氧化物质会增加，也可以降血脂，抑制自由基而抗老，而且还可给茶饮当中带有自然的甜味。

如果作为日常保健，山楂陈皮苹果水可在平日进食煎炸油腻食物后饮用。如果患有高血脂症的人群，一周可以饮用3次左右，但不可取代降血脂的药物。

上班族如果没有时间准备，可以将所有材料放到锅内大火煮滚后，然后直接倒入保温杯焖，焖约40分钟后就可以饮用，味道也一样。上班族还可在保温杯内加3克的玫瑰花，玫瑰花有疏肝解郁的作用，因此更适合工作中有压力的人群。

最后，需要注意的是，胃酸过多或胃食道逆流的人群不可喝太多，适量就好。孕妇不可饮用这茶饮，因为山楂对子宫有收缩的作用。那有心血管疾病的人群，不要只靠这杯茶，一定要及时求诊，让医生来诊治。

What is plantar fasciitis?

If you are experiencing heel pain:
1. Upon taking your first step in the morning;
2. After exercising, particularly after running, prolonged standing or walking;
3. Standing up after prolonged sitting,
you may have suffered from plantar fasciitis.

Recommended to do the massage after each shower session.

Step 2: Gather Supplies

Step 3: Nurturing Digestive Massage
1. Get ready the massage oil.
2. Pour a few drips onto hands and rub against each other until warm.
3. Immediately place the palm on the belly button and rub clockwise for 5 times. Repeat step 2 and 3 for 3 times. [Acupoint: 脐 belly button]

🌸 Discover the Constipation-busting Acupoint for Children: Qi Jie Gu (seven joints) 七节骨🌸mummy (Instagram)

There are two ways to massage Qi Jie Gu acupoint.
(1) Pushing Qi Jie Gu upwards (推上七节骨）: help to stop diarrhea;
(2) Pushing Qi Jie Gu downwards (推下七节骨）: help to ease constipation.
Hence, massaging the acupoint in two different ways will serve different function.

💆‍♀️ How to Massage "Pushing Qi Jie Gu" downwards:
Use thumb to gently stroke from the hip (level to the belly button) to the tailbone. Repeat for 100-300 times.

🛎️Tips:
1️⃣ Children's skin are very delicate. You may put some powder or oil on your child's skin, to prevent too much friction when doing the strokes.

Did you know?

Acupuncture, because of its proven clinical benefits, favourable safety and cost-effectiveness, have been recommended for OA (osteoarthritis) management by the American College of Rheumatology and National Institute of Arthritis and Musculoskeletal and Skin Diseases.

Woods, B., Manca, A., Weatherly, H., Saramago, P., Sideris, E., Giannopoulou, C., Rice, S., Corbett, M., Vickers, A., Bowes, M., MacPherson, H. & Sculpher, M. 2019 American College of Rheumatology/Arthritis Foundation Guideline for the Management of Osteoarthritis of the Hand, Hip, and Knee. Arthritis Care & Research 72, 149–162 (2020).

Did you know?

There are strong evidences of long term pain relieving effects of acupuncture.

A large meta-analysis published in 2018, which included 39 randomized control trials and over 20000 patients who suffered from four chronic pain conditions (musculoskeletal pain, chronic headache, shoulder pain or osteoarthritis) found out that acupuncture was indeed superior to sham needling as well as no acupuncture control for each pain condition.

Most importantly, clear evidence was found that the pain-relieving effects of acupuncture even lasted after one year of follow up, making acupuncture one of the only treatments in existence with strong evidence of long term pain relieving effects.

Vickers, A. J., Vertosick, E. A., Lewith, G., MacPherson, H., Foster, N. E., Sherman, K. J., Irnich, D., Witt, C. M. & Linde, K. Acupuncture for Chronic Pain: Update of an Individual Patient Data Meta-Analysis. Journal of Pain vol. 19 455–474 (2018)
