Chapter 1133 Sauna
After Al Kuimu’s introduction, Zhou Zhi learned that the Kazakhs still have many ways of bathing therapy.
For example, there is a "skin bath", which can treat symptoms such as chills and pain caused by wind and cold.
According to the gender and constitution of the patient, men can choose sheepskin or horsehide, while women can choose goatskin, antelope skin, or buckskin. During treatment, the selected animals are quickly slaughtered and skinned, and the patient is wrapped in warm skin to encourage him to sweat.
If the sweating effect is not good, you can also use medicines such as Platycladus orientalis leaves, ephedra, artemisia annua, cloves, etc., decoct the juice in water, pour it into the skin under heat, and wrap it around the patient to promote sweating.
There is another method called "Habutalego", which is mainly used to treat impotence, rheumatism, menorrhagia, etc.
The method is to put birch leaves and white bark into a large bag and press it tightly, pour hot water on it, then tie the mouth of the bag tightly, and place the bag in the sun to heat and rot.
When the temperature in the bag rises to 45°C, open the bag, make a hole in the middle of the medicine, and let the patient wrap his body in it.
The third type is what we are doing now, "Huck Dallego".
Hakedalego is mainly used to treat rheumatic diseases and can also be used to treat cold and sweating.
The method is to dig a pit in the ground that can accommodate one person, and burn the bones of embroidered willow and five kinds of livestock into charcoal. Set up a small tent outside the pit and set up a wooden mesh frame on the pit. The patient lies down on a shelf and is allowed to sweat.
You can continuously spray water on the charcoal to form hot mist fumigation.
After the charcoal fire is extinguished, the patient can lie directly in the pit.
“When I went on a pilgrimage, I saw that many foreign Kazakhs had their own steam rooms.” Alquim poured water on an iron plate filled with ore to fill the room with steam. While introducing it to everyone: "I was thinking about this at the time Things can be used to improve our 'Hakdalegor'. I made one when I came back."
"The effect is pretty good, especially after the winter field transfer. Steaming this can sew the bones inside. The coldness was forced out.”
"You drink milk and eat something first." Alquaim greeted everyone enthusiastically: "I will take a bath in a while."
"Actually, Brother Hakedale has a course of treatment. Each treatment After that, it is necessary to replenish water and strengthen nutrition in time to prevent wind and cold. Choose different medicines according to the condition, boil the concoction and soak it for three quarters of an hour each time. It can treat rheumatism, sciatica, hypertension, skin diseases, etc."
"The course of treatment can be one week or two weeks. , three weeks. During the medicated bath treatment, you cannot drink cold water. Drinking mare's milk can improve the curative effect."
"This is a good way." Zhou Zhi took a sip of the mare's milk, and sweat appeared on his forehead. The fatigue of the previous day and night had disappeared a lot: "Eat. Just drink and enjoy and get rid of the disease. ”
“Our set of medical techniques that treat through skin absorption, whether it is roasted, smoked, steamed, covered, or soaked, is collectively called 'Pulawu therapy'. In addition, there are hot spring baths and sand baths. , steam bath, salt bath, mud bath, etc. ”
"Does Kazakh medicine need to use medicine? It's like the Chinese herbal medicine from the mainland."
"Of course it must be used, but we mostly combine it with national habits. We Kazakhs take meat and milk as our main diet: mutton, Horse meat is a hot and tonic product that can replenish deficiency, warm the stomach, and aphrodisiac; the broth of Altay daphne fried in it can treat rheumatism and cough. For coughs and colds, fry cloves, black peppercorns and milk to make clove milk tea, which can ventilate the air, warm the waist and benefit the stomach.”
“Come here, elbows, and lie down on this table.”
< br>"Ah? What for?" Zhou Zhi asked curiously, but he still came to Alquamu obediently holding the mare milk cup. "You're starting to have problems with your back." Alquaim asked Zhou Zhi to lie down and began to reach out to pinch the waist of his back: "Well, there are already signs of strain from sitting for a long time. Do you sometimes feel like this? Are your two muscles sore? ”
After saying that, he started to exert force with his hands.
"Oh, yes, yes...it's right there, right there, so comfortable..." As old Alquamu's hand reached, Zhou Zhi felt as if some kind of blocking switch on his waist had been turned on. , all the muscles in his back suddenly relaxed, and the long-lost sense of relaxation spread from the base of his head and neck to his heels, making him so comfortable that he screamed out.
“The Kazakhs grew up on horseback. They rode horses to climb mountains and waded in rivers. Falls and fractures often occurred. Due to inconvenient transportation, they were unable to seek medical treatment in time, which further increased the difficulty of bone grafting. Objective conditions gave rise to "The unique bone-setting technique of Kazakh medicine" Xu's father introduced to Zhou Zhi: "Bone-setting." Doctors are called "Wotash" among the people, and the Ayiguli family is a "Wotash" family. My grandfather's bone setting skills are excellent, and he has treated many big people's back injuries. ”
Zhou Zhi was so comfortable that he couldn't even speak. He gave him a thumbs up to express his personal experience. He really lived up to his reputation.
Within a few moments, Zhou Zhi felt that the muscles and tendons in his back had been completely relaxed. Now he was like a piece of dough on the chopping board, soft and loose, allowing the old Alquan to knead it. pinch.
Just when he was in a state of elation, Old Alquaimu suddenly exerted force on his hand again, and his movements were unusually crisp and decisive. Zhou Zhi heard the joints in his waist "click" and "click" twice in a row, and the sound was clear and clear. It was so loud that he screamed "ouch" in fright.
Old Alquaim patted Zhou Zhi on the back: "Okay, you can get up now, and you can take care of yourself for another five years."
"But it's best to combine work and rest. Don't sit on the stool all the time. I find you are young now. Man, this problem is getting more and more serious."
"Whoever learns this skill from the old man will make a fortune in the future." Zhou Zhi put his hand on his waist and turned it a few times, realizing that he had fainted before. There is some pain in my lower back, and now I can’t feel it at all No more, I couldn’t help but praise: "I think if the Olympic Committee knew that there are people like the elderly in our country, their application for the Olympics last year would not have failed! This bone-setting massage technique is amazing! The elderly should be trained more by the country cultivate cultivate There are so many talents in this field!”
“Your statement is too exaggerated,” said Old Al Kuimu, who was used to being praised by everyone, but was also blushing by Zhou Zhi’s novel compliments. Light: "Should it be appropriate or not."
The steam room is very novel. One wall is a mud wall, and a fireplace is built at the bottom of the mud wall. However, the mouth of the fireplace is outside, where food can be baked.
There is a table indoors, which is actually the back wall of the fireplace. When a fire is lit outside, the cast iron plates on the fireplace will be hot.
The heat will also be transferred to the ore on the iron plate. The ore is volcanic stone specially selected by Old Alquaim. The texture is loose and porous. When water is poured on it, it immediately turns into rolling steam.
Different from the pure water used in ordinary saunas, the old Alquam should have used the potion specially used for the Harkdalego therapy in Harbin Medical University, and the air was filled with the aroma of herbal medicine.
I don’t know if this aroma can stimulate body fluids, relieve fatigue, and increase appetite. Zhou Zhi’s body has been feeling hungry again due to lack of fiber and vitamin intake in the past two days.
Zhou Zhi didn’t even see the large-plate chicken that had become so popular in later generations. He had only eaten it now.
“It’s really strange to say that I didn’t see such a famous dish as Dapanji all the way here. I didn’t eat it until here.”
“Huh? You also know about Dapanchi? Chicken?" Father Xu was surprised: "Didn't it become popular last year?"
"No way, this dish appeared so late?"
