Many parents are very frustrated because their babies don't like to eat. If they don't eat properly, their physical growth will be affected. To cope with a baby's lack of appetite, in addition to taking measures in the preparation of food patterns, massage can also be used to improve it. So, how do babies massage if they don't like to eat?
1. Firstly, massage the acupoints on the baby's hands, which correspond to the Five Elements. To determine the specific acupoints, place the thumb between the middle finger and ring finger, with a few fingers pointing towards the liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys. The liver, heart, spleen, lungs, and kidneys correspond to wood fire, earth, and gold water, with the spleen facing the thumb. The last section of the thumb finger is the baby's spleen meridian. Then, parents use rotary massage to massage the spleen meridian, which is very important because there are many cases of spleen deficiency in babies.
2. The Banmen acupoint is located at the corner of the big fish, specifically the muscle below the base of the thumb. Parents can use their thumb to massage and press it frequently for their baby, which has a very good therapeutic effect on not eating.
3. The Inner Bagua is located at 1/3 of the center of the palm, turning clockwise towards Bagua. It belongs to the phylum of earth, while the little finger is in contrast to water. The muscle below the base of the little finger belongs to water and can transport water into the earth. Pushing from the thumb towards the muscle at the base of the little finger, it can transport water into the earth at the fish's border, playing a role in tonifying the spleen.
