Sleep is the main way to eliminate brain fatigue.
A normal good sleep can regulate physiological functions and maintain the balance of the nervous system. Long-term lack of sleep or poor sleep quality will affect the function of the brain, and even cause neurasthenia and other diseases in severe cases.
Occasionally, poor sleep, multiple dreams, insomnia, poor sleep quality or awakening are normal physiological processes, but if they do so for a long time, they will cause serious health hazards. Self-conditioning through Gua Sha massage can improve sleep.
Simple Head and Foot Scraping Therapy

- Every night, use a Gua Sha tool to scrape the entire bottom of the foot with a planiform scraping method until the bottom of the foot becomes hot. In the process of scraping, focus on the single-angle scraping method to wipe the Yongquan acupoint on the sole of the foot. Usually, 10-15mins works well
