穴位按摩延緩老花眼
媽媽有沒有投訴老是看不清,不斷配新眼鏡?尤其是看近距離事物,如看書讀報時份外辛苦,但看遠方事物卻是零難度,有時在暗處也會看不清,眼睛也特別容易疲勞,容易感到頸部肌肉僵硬痠軟等?中醫經典著作《備急千金要方》有提到「凡人年四十五已後漸覺眼暗」,而《醫方集解》提到老花眼是「能遠視不能近視」。中醫理論認為,主要是因年老體衰,腎虛肝弱而影響。由於老花眼是人體衰老變化的一種,並沒有根治方法,但是配合體質進食,配戴度數合適的老花眼鏡,以及每天按摩眼部穴位,都可以減輕雙眼的不適。以下的簡便穴位按摩,可以增加眼睛血液循環,除了適合出現老花的媽媽們,也適合日對夜對電腦或手機螢幕的你,不妨在工作、等車空檔、洗澡或睡前按一按!
