The side effects and sequelae caused by drugs and surgical procedures often bring great pain to patients. Psychosomatic intervention (MBI) refers to all mental and subconscious thoughts (relaxation and stress reduction), as well as the use of technology to establish the relationship between bodily functions (qi, slow movement and breathing). The types of MBI are very wide, including Tai Chi, Yoga and Qigong. Previous studies have found that MBI is related to immune system, endocrine and nervous system regulation. But the exact mechanism is unclear.
Although MBI (such as Tai Chi and Yoga) has significant benefits for mental, physical health and clinical use, the promotion of MBI is restricted by many conditions. For example, MBI′s practice time is strictly limited, the learning difficulty is high, the requirements for the practice place are high, and long-term uninterrupted practice can obtain effective results. In order to further promote MBI to the public, this study refers to the principles of Tai Chi, Yoga and Qigong, and designed a set of simple and easy-to-learn exercises. This sport is called simple exercise (DEE). The latest research shows that Tai Chi can increase the number of CD34 + cells in the surrounding blood. CD34+ is a marker of hematopoietic stem cells and decreases with age. Therefore, the number of hematopoietic stem cells is related to aging. Back pain is a common problem among modern people, especially workers, women and long-term bad postures. Poor joint movement can easily cause musculoskeletal pain. However, musculoskeletal pain is the main cause of back pain. Patients suffering from musculoskeletal pain usually have symptoms of over-expressed inflammatory factors and immune system imbalance. Studies have shown that C-reactive protein (CRP) can cause worsening of musculoskeletal pain. However, high levels of helper T cells and IL-2 can reduce musculoskeletal pain.
The research project aims to test the effects of DEE exercise on physical health. We plan to test: 1. After 3 months of practice, the effect of DEE on the number of CD34+ cells in peripheral blood. 2. After 3 months of practice, the effect of DEE on back pain. After screening, there were 22 participants in the DEE practice group and 22 participants in the control group. In the experiment to test the number of CD34+ cells, the DEE training group and the control group were divided into young and middle-aged groups based on the age of 30. Our results show that DEE exercise can increase the number of CD34+ cells, regardless of whether it is young or middle-aged. In an experiment that tested DEE exercises to improve back pain, 22 participants in the DEE exercise group showed increased IL-2 and helper T cells. In addition, quality of life, joint mobility and skeletal muscle pain are improved.
Our results showed that DEE has a good effect on delaying aging and improving back pain or quality of life. We plan to further test the impact of DEE on clinical medicine in the future. Compared with other MBIs, DEE has the advantages of being easy to learn, short exercise time, good curative effect and requiring a smaller space. Therefore, DEE is suitable for promotion in today′s society. | en_US |
