Comic Journey to the West: Tang Monk Insomnia
|
Original: Binzhou Second Hospital Vertigo Center Vertigo Station Tang Seng has been suffering from insomnia recently. He counted sheep all night but still couldn't fall asleep. When he got up in the morning, he felt dizzy and his eyes were dark. For more than a month, he took Chinese medicine and had acupuncture, but there was no improvement. Tang Seng was about to collapse! One day, when passing by a hospital, the doctor suggested that Tang Seng try hyperbaric oxygen. "Hyperbaric oxygen? I used it when I suddenly became deaf, and it worked quite well. Can it also be used for insomnia?" Tang Seng was skeptical. Why can hyperbaric oxygen improve insomnia? Compared with healthy people, the brain of an insomniac is in a state of mild excitement, the electrophysiological activity of brain cells increases, and the oxygen consumption increases. Hyperbaric oxygen is different from ordinary oxygen inhalation. Patients inhale pure oxygen in a pressurized (more than 1 atmosphere) environment in a hyperbaric oxygen chamber to treat certain diseases. Hyperbaric oxygen can increase the body's oxygen partial pressure, increase blood oxygen content, and allow the brain tissue to obtain sufficient oxygen. Hyperbaric oxygen can improve the blood supply to the reticular system and brain stem, and gradually restore the disordered physiological activities of the cerebral cortex. Hyperbaric oxygen can also improve myocardial ischemia and heart function, increase cerebral blood flow, and promote the metabolism of brain cells. Yes! This is the advanced hyperbaric oxygen. It is like a huge space capsule, and doctors monitor the condition of every patient in the capsule. Once a day, each session lasted about 2 hours, with a few minutes of rest in between. Half a month later, Tang Seng's sleep was much better and he was full of energy. The four masters and apprentices continued their journey to the West to obtain Buddhist scriptures in high spirits.
