Migun Bed Principles
Migun uses Oriental medical principles such as moxibution, acupressure, and acupuncture. These methods of treatment are made more effective when combined with Western technology, such as the use of Helium gas and Chiropractic therapy. According to Oriental Medicine, the human body has 365 acupressure points, and among those, Migun is concentrating on the vital acupuncture points around the spine.
Oriental Medicine
Acupuncture started in 10,000-4,000 BC in East Coast of China where the inhabitants lived on fishery. They invented a "flat stone" by scraping the stone on the ground and used it to push aching parts of the body to ease the pain. Some soldiers of war discovered their aches and pains were cured when wounded by an arrow. From such accidental discoveries, the fundamental theory of oriental medicine was developed: that the human body is a "miniature universe" and every parts of the body are interconnected.
Oriental medical practitioners have mapped the human body with acupuncture points and uncovered that the majority of vital healing points were located near the spine. Those points can now be understood as the paths for nervous system. Due to lack of understanding of Oriental Medicine in Western society, it has been difficult for the public to experience this type of treatment. However, Migun has now opened up the world of Oriental Medicine to you in a way that is easy, comfortable, and effective.
The Importance of the Spine.
There is a saying that a healthy spine will lead to an enjoyable, healthy, and long life. The spine is the pillar of the human body; it is connected to all internal organs, muscles, and nerves. In fact, all brain activities are regulated by the functions of the spine.
The spine is a column of bones called vertebrae. Human beings are composed of 7 cervical, 12 thoracic, 5 lumber, 5 sacral, and 3-5 coccyx vertebrae. Surrounded by the spine, the spinal cord, nerves, blood vessels, and lymph nodes are linked together.
The functions of spinal cord depend on the condition of the vertebrae. When the mobility of the vertebrae becomes dull, the reflexes become dull. When the spine is distorted, the nerves are compressed, and as a result, all the organs controlled by those nerves will not perform properly. The main form of chiropractic therapy is to correct the distorted vertebrae and normalize the functions of the organs, muscles, tissues, and nerves.
Considering the importance of the spine, it is apparent that maintaining a healthy spine is the key to having a healthy life. Unhealthy and distorted spine may cause one to suffer from disorders such as lumbago, tinnitus, and disc related problems. Maintaining habits of good posture and keeping the back warm are good ways to care for the spine.
