Hair (1)

In a human body, there grows hair in every important area. Hair in each point has a role to protect the body, but especially hair of the head plays a role to control heat of the head.

It is considered that one who tends to have heat on the head has less hair, and on the other hand, one who should not cool one's head have a lot of hair. This is why there are less haired people in men, and more hair in women. The diffrent characteristics between sex are indicated here.

So, hair transplantation for men and frequent washing hair for women are unnatural in this point of view.

Scurf of the navel

There is no muscle layers around the navel. It is like a volcano on the surface of the ground. Because it is hollow, scurf can be gathered there easily.

In Japan, many people say that if you clean scurf of the navel, you harm the abdomen. However, it is not good idea to accumulate a lot of scurf at the navel. The navel is an important acupuncture point called Shenque, CV-8, which is used for the severe sickness.

Try to wash the navel lightly when you take a shower to keep the flow of qi around the navel smoothly.

Beauty Under the Harvest Moon

In the entrance of Taishido Acupuncture Clinic, there is a night-blooming cereus, called "Gekka-bijin" in Japanese, literally translated in English as "beauty under the moon".  It is very beautiful, but blooms for only one night.

On Monday, September 12th, the harvest moon, it bloomed! "Beauty under the moon" bloomed under the harvest moon!
