PENTRU NAS INFUNDAT, SINUZITA, RACEALA, GRIPA
Stomach-2 (ST-2)
This point lies in the infraorbital
foramen, below the eyeball. Gently massage the area for 30-60 seconds
avoiding the eyeball. This point helps open up your sinuses so that you
can breathe better.
Yu Yao
This point is located at the centre of
the eye brow. Stimulate this point in a pumping manner
(press-release-press-release) for approximately 1 minute. This point
helps alleviate the tension that can build up from blocked sinuses.
Large Intestine-20 (LI-20)
This point is located just lateral to the
ala nasi, in the nasolabial sulcus (the crease line that forms when you
smile). Stimulate this point similarly to “Yu Yao”. This point helps
open up your sinuses so that you can breathe better.
This point is located on the forehead,
one thumb-width above the midpoint of the eye brow. This point is great
for any headaches, especially from blocked sinuses. Apply firm deep
strokes of pressure in a downward direction for approximately 1 minute.
Other important points:Large Intestine-4 (LI-4)
This important point is a command point
for the face and mouth meaning that it is great for any pain in the
head, such as frontal headaches, neck pain, sore eyes, toothache, nasal
obstruction, sore throat, plugged ears. This point is located on the
dorsum of the hand in between the 1st & 2nd metacarpal bones, at the
midpoint of the 2nd metacarpal bone. Massage the point gently &
perpendicularly with the thumb of the opposite hand for approx 30
seconds to 1 minute.
Lung-7 (LU-7)
This point is 2 finger-breadths from the
wrist’s transverse crease between the brachioradial muscle & tendon
of long abductor muscle. Use the thumb of the opposite hand and gently
apply pressure in small rotations while supporting the wrist. Continue
to apply pressure for 30 seconds to 1 minute. This point is also a
command point for the head and neck good for treating headaches,
migraines, neck rigidity, cough, asthma, sore throat, toothache, wrist
pain and any Lung-related problems.
Stomach-36 (ST-36)
To locate this point, bend the knee 90°
and measure 3 finger-breadths from the lower tip of the knee cap
downwards. You will be able to feel a pointed bone at this level on the
lateral side of the tibia (1 finger-breadth from the anterior crest of
the tibia). This is a great point for the overall boosting of the
immune system helping with gastric pain, vomiting, hiccup, abdominal
distention, diarrhea, constipation, and fatigue. Apply firm deep
strokes of pressure in a downward direction for 1 minute.
Pericardium-6 (PC-6)This point is located at the centre of the forearm, 2 thumb-widths above the wrist crease in between the tendons of the flexor carpi radialis & palmaris longus. This point is considered the “anti-nausea” point. You may have seen people wearing a wrist band on the plane or on a boat. These bands are made for applying acupressure on this specific point. If you have a queezy stomach, this is an excellent point to stimulate. Simply apply gentle pressure and massage for 30 seconds to 1 minute.
