琥珀 Amber

琥珀 Amber
 
“人养琥珀、琥珀养人”。
 
蜜蜡即密腊，琥珀的一个品种，呈不透明状或半不透明状的琥珀被称作蜜蜡。
 
天然琥珀中含有人体必需的多种矿物质，由于佩戴手串时是直接和皮肤接触，而大多天然的琥珀都是有天然纹理，它可以吸收人身体的体液，经常佩戴能使琥珀中含有的微量元素通过皮肤吸入人体内，从而能平衡阴阳气血的失调，使人祛病保健益寿。
 
一、促进血液的循环：腕部是身体血液循环的末端，而回流的血液全凭心脏的压力来实现。在佩戴琥珀的过程中，手镯或手串会不断地产生晃动和摩擦，晃动对人体的手腕起到有效的按摩功效，这样的物理按摩作用会直接激发和松弛人体的经脉和穴位。手串或手镯与手腕皮肤组织的摩擦作用，可以使得手腕皮肤的血液更好地流畅，可以软化皮肤细胞，疏通皮肤的汗腺，有助于人体的新称代谢。人的手腕内侧有一个穴位叫内关，是治疗失眠的要穴，人带上手串或手镯后，手在不停地运动，在手腕上可以不经意地起到按摩穴位的作用。
 
二、对心脏有好处：中医理论证明，琥珀对心脏具有平和心率、降压、稳定情绪的功效，琥珀对于心脏不好或高血压的患者具有一定的心脏辅助作用，起到降低血压、稳定心跳速度，减轻急躁、紧张，缓解压力、提神回复记忆的功效。
 
三、吸收琥珀里的各种微量元素：琥珀是大自然的产物，吸取了百川之精华，容纳了天地之优，各类琥珀中包含了自然界融入的铁、锰、锌、镍的多种矿物中的某几类或多类元素。在佩戴手串的过程中，这些微量元素通过与人体的经常摩擦而逐渐沿着皮肤组织渗透进入人体，有效地补充人体食物摄取不到的微量元素，从而达到平衡、调节生理和提高各种免疫力。
 
Succinic acid is also used in supplements to treat the symptoms of menopause, including irritability. It seems that along with treating irritability in menopause patients, amber jewelry also works on anxiety in just about anyone.
 
Anxiety can come from all kinds of different sources. It might be generalized or situation-specific. But no matter when or where your anxiety manifests, amber beads for adults may help.
 
When parents once gave amber to teething babies, it didn't just help with their pain. It often seemed to help them become more relaxed and happy, too.
 
Succinic acid once again provides this effect. Scientific studies have actually found that this acid helps reduce anxiety in mice.
 
Many people believe that the healing powers of stones are pure hearsay. But amber actually has a proven ability to reduce pain and inflammation.
 
This power comes from the succinic acid within the stone. When you wear an amber necklace, it naturally becomes warm because it's close to your body. As the resin warms, the succinic acid gets released.
 
For many years, people gave amber to teething babies for this same reason. The soft amber helped reduce the pain and inflammation of teething. The same tactic works for adults, too.
 
It's found in supplements and topical applications to address problems like pain and arthritis. However, amber jewelry can give you the same benefits without the added expense.
 
Luckily, the highest concentration of succinic acid is in the outer layer of the amber pieces. This means that amber jewelry is actually an efficient way to transfer those painkilling properties to your skin.
