My son had a busy Saturday last week. He went to a swimming class for an hour, then headed to a friend’s birthday party. They made their own pizza and played bowling while waiting the pizza to be baked. Then he finished the whole pizza (about 6 small pieces) plus one piece of birthday cake. After the party, he had a basketball game to play. That was when the problem came after eating too much. He had a stomach ache half an hour before the game. He didn’t feel well not only because of the abdominal pain but also the possibility to miss the game.
Here is what I did to help him feel well again. I massaged his ST36 (Zusanli), LI10 (Shousanli), LI13 (Shouwuli) and the UB18-21 area on his back (Stomach Shu, Spleen Shu). Each for a minute or two. Then the pain and uncomfortableness were gone. He played the game from the beginning to the end because of their shortage of players. Hooray!
上个周六，我的大儿子去参加同学的生日会，吃了太多的比萨饼和一块蛋糕，还有果汁。这之后他还有一个篮球比赛需要参加。由于吃了太多东西，而且是边玩边吃，食物也不太健康，比赛前半个小时，他告诉我肚子有点疼，很担心不能参加比赛。我赶紧采取措施，按摩了他的足三里，手三里，手五里，还有背部的胃腧和脾腧部位。每个穴位大概一两分钟，按摩结束后他的不舒服没有了，而且因为只有五名队员，他参加比赛从头到尾没有休息。中医按摩很有效果吧！不过还是尽量保持饮食健康好！
