勤扭腰便秘速速走
清晨5時至7時（卯時）為大腸經循行時間，此時大腸活動最為活躍，最易排便。但現代都市人少有那麼早起床，更遑論上廁所排便，加上飲食失調、缺乏運動、工作緊張、每天久站或久坐，都容易引致便秘，雖不是大病但卻令人感到困擾！
有輕微便秘問題的話，不妨每天起床花數分鐘時間，做做轉腰運動，可刺激腸部蠕動，加上穴位按摩，有助紓緩便秘問題。如果問題嚴重，還是要諮詢醫師啊！
轉腰刺激腸蠕動
此轉腰運動最好空腹時間做，運動後喝杯暖水。
1. 仰臥在床上，雙手自然放在身體兩側，輕輕抬起右腳膝蓋，倒向身體左側，同時將臉轉向右側，維持5秒，然後腳和臉回到起點。
2. 輕輕抬起左腳膝蓋，倒向身體右側，同時將臉轉向左側，維持5秒。此為一組動作，重覆做十次。
按壓天樞穴
位置：腹中部，肚臍旁邊2寸（約3指寬度），腹直肌中。以大拇指或掌根按揉50次。
功效：天樞為大腸經的郄穴，揉按此穴可促進大腸經的氣血運行，改善腹脹便秘。
Move your abs to relieve constipation
From 5-7am, the large intestine meridian flows, and this is the time when your large intestine is the most active making it easiest for bowel movement. But very few people wake up that early nowadays, coupled with poor dietary habits, lack of exercise, stressful work, standing or sitting too long, it can easily lead to constipation. It’s not a major illness but it can be quite bothersome!
If you have constipation, try doing some ab exercises when you wake up to get your intestine moving and also try some acupoint massages to relieve constipation. If you the issue is serious, then remember to consult a Chinese medicine practitioner!
