The benefits of stretching for women

Stretching the muscles means stretching the tendons of the body. Because modern people sit for a long time or do not exercise for a long time, it is easy to cause some physical diseases, and it is also easy to cause neck, shoulder and waist diseases, which have a great impact on human health. Regular stretching has great benefits for the human body. It can effectively strengthen the physical fitness and relieve the effect of back pain.

What are the benefits of muscle stretching?

Helps lose weight

Studies have found that simple back stretches can promote the flexion and extension of the erector spinae muscles in our back. When the erector spinae muscles are flexed and extended, the brown fat cells in our body will be accelerated to ignite. In addition, stretching the back can also help straighten the spine, making the body more attractive.

Strong human body

The Du meridian is on our back. It is the meeting point of all yang and a safe passage for primordial energy. If this meridian is unobstructed, the kidney function will be strong. Moreover, because the Du channel is located above the spine, and the spinal nerves go directly to the brain, connecting the important nerves of the brain and internal organs, it can be seen that stretching the tendons can indeed strengthen the body. .

Beauty and skin care

Stretching the muscles can also connect the bladder meridian in the back. The bladder meridian is the body's largest detoxification system and an important natural barrier against cold. If the bladder meridian is unobstructed, the cold cannot invade, and internal toxins can be discharged anytime and anywhere. Obesity, constipation, acne, pigmentation and other symptoms can be naturally eliminated and relieved.

Improve physical function

Pressing the tendons can soften and improve the liver, spleen and kidney meridians at the base of the thigh. Talking about these three meridians, it's quite amazing. Many ancient medical books have introduced them in detail. If these three meridians are smooth, the human body functions normally. If these three meridians are blocked, it may cause reproductive, urogenital system and other diseases, such as prostatitis in men, dysmenorrhea, irregular menstruation, pigmentation, uterine fibroids, breast hyperplasia, etc. in women, all due to this. Therefore, stretching is also very beneficial for adjusting body functions.
