导引法
凡学将息人。先须正坐。并膝头足。初坐先足指相对足跟外。于坐上少欲安稳。须两足
跟向内相对。坐上足指外。入觉闷痛。渐渐举身似款。便坐足上。待共内坐相似不痛。始双

又法(出危氏方)治腰 痛。
正东坐。手抱心。一人于前据蹑其两膝。一人后捧其头。徐牵令偃卧。头倒地。三起三
卧。便瘥。
一法 治男子妇人腰痛不可忍者。
用左右带研索于朝太阳。长伸卧地。以纸研。如左用右。研入鼻中。如右用左。以涕为
验。便安适即起行步。
夫肾主于腰脚。若肾虚损。而为气冷乘之。故腰痛也。又邪客于足太阳之络。令人腰痛。
痛引小腹。不可以仰息。诊其尺脉沉者。主腰背痛。寸口脉弱腰背痛。尺寸俱浮直上下。此
为督脉腰痛。凡腰痛有五。一曰少阴肾也。十月万物阳气皆衰。是以腰痛。二曰风痹。风寒
着腰是以痛。三曰肾虚。役用伤肾是以痛。四月 腰痛。或堕伤腰。是以痛。五曰寝卧湿地。
是以痛。故曰五种腰痛也。

候药液干。用大火煎煮。如果还没有完全浓缩,继续煮。以浓缩成膏为度。研细成为散剂。挖一个深一尺二寸的地坑。往坑里倒水。等水澄清后取水。加入硫黄粉末。水不能多。在锅中煎熬直到像膏一样稠。然后用一口不烧火的铁锅。只在锅底铺细砂隔着纸慢炒。将硫黄滴在纸上。自然变成玉的颜色。光彩照人。这叫做玉粉散。研细。如果要制成丸剂。用水泛丸如麻子大。空腹时。每天用盐汤送服十丸。如果是散剂服用。用盐汤调两字(古代重量单位)。极有效验。我的同乡王昭遂合方服用。年龄九十岁。面容像孩童。晚上读书视力是常人的两倍。
导引法
凡是学习养生的人。必须先端正坐姿。膝盖并拢双脚。刚坐下时先让脚趾相对脚跟向外。在坐位上稍微安稳些。必须两脚脚跟向内相对。坐在上面脚趾向外。如果觉得闷痛。渐渐起身似款待客人般放松。就坐在脚上。等到与向内坐相似不痛。才双立足跟向上坐于足趾。并及向外。每次坐着常练习。去除膀胱内的冷风。膝冷足疼。上气腰疼。都能自行消除。
又一种方法(出自危氏方)治疗腰痛。
面向正东坐。手抱心口。一人在前面按住其两膝。一人在后面托住头。慢慢牵引使其仰卧。头倒地。三起三卧。病就好了。
一种方法 治疗男子妇人腰痛不可忍受的。
用左右带研索于朝太阳穴。长伸卧地。用纸研磨。如左用右。研磨入鼻中。如右用左。以流涕为验证。感到安适就可以起身行走。
肾主司腰脚。如果肾虚损。被气冷侵袭。所以腰痛。另外邪气客居足太阳经的络脉。使人腰痛。疼痛牵引小腹。不可以仰身呼吸。诊察尺脉沉的。主腰背痛。寸口脉弱腰背痛。尺寸两部脉都浮直上下。这是督脉腰痛。凡腰痛有五种。一是少阴肾也。十月万物阳气皆衰。因此腰痛。二是风痹。风寒附着腰部因此痛。三是肾虚。劳役损伤肾脏因此痛。四月腰痛。或者堕伤腰部。因此痛。五是睡卧湿地。因此痛。所以说五种腰痛。
