"Approach Bridge" Unearthed from Mawangdui No.3 Tomb

During 1973, two remarkable qigong documents were unearthed from Mawangdui No.3 tomb in Changsha, Hunan Province, one of which was a guide map drawn on silk (color map 9). The owner of the "guide map" is a famous lady with a surname in Han Dynasty. The lady not only practiced tour guide before her death, but also used the tour guide map as a funerary object after her death. It can be seen that her love and superstition for guidance have reached the point of life and death.

Guiding stilts is a dynamic work, which is the representative and inherited achievement of the Chinese nation.

From the characteristics of guiding stilts and pressing stilts, there is no obvious difference between them. Your focus is on "shaking limbs and moving limbs", and pressing stilts is an ancient name for massage. Guidance, also known as "guidance" or "propaganda and guidance method", is said to have been created by Peng Zu, an ancient qigong health care practitioner, as a method of strengthening the body and treating diseases. The guidance of "bragging and breathing, spitting out the old and absorbing the new" is very popular among the ancient "people who are shaping" and is also applied by doctors. After Taoism came into being, absorption and guidance was one of the ways to cultivate immortals. In addition, guidance is also loved by the general public. According to Huangdi Neijing Su Wen Yi Fa Yi Lun: "The central region is flat and humid, and it is the most abundant place in nature. People there have many kinds of food and don't feel tired. Therefore, most human diseases are fistula, syncope, cold and heat. In treatment, you should use the guide button. " "Pressing and walking on stilts are two techniques in massage. Bing Wang in the Tang Dynasty commented that "squeezing is squeezing the body; It is also said that stilts refer to acupoints. For example, Jing Zhi said: "Press, pinch and press; The adjustment bridge is the Yang adjustment bridge and the Yin adjustment bridge. Gai said that it is also necessary to massage the valley points and the bridge points to get rid of the disease. " The principle of guiding pressure on stilts requires slow movement and limited flexion and extension.
