An acupuncture point can prevent common diseases in life

In addition to taking medication to treat diseases, some people cure diseases through other methods, such as foot massage, sweat steaming, aerobic exercise, etc., but these methods take a long time and target a certain disease to relieve the disease. But in traditional Chinese medicine, there is a simple method that can immediately relieve the pain caused by the disease. This method is generally called acupressure!

There are only a few common diseases in daily life. If they are not too serious, they can be prevented and treated through acupoint massage, such as colds, headaches, eye pain, nasal congestion, tinnitus, etc. Acupoint massage is simple, does not take too much time, and does not require bitter medicines. From these aspects, its advantages are often greater than other methods.

Below you can learn in detail which acupoints should be massaged for common diseases.

1. Hiccups

Hiccups often occur when eating or eating spicy food. This phenomenon not only affects one's image, but also puts oneself in an embarrassing situation.

When encountering such a situation, most people will pat their chest or drink more water to relieve the symptoms, but hiccups can be stopped by pressing a certain acupuncture point on the human body for about a minute.

In the depression between the eyebrows on the face, there are two acupoints called Zanzhu points at the frontal incision. Press the Zanzhu points on both eyebrows with the knuckles of your thumbs for one minute, and the symptoms of hiccups will be relieved.

2. Leg cramps

People who are used to swimming often suffer from leg cramps. If there is no one around them, their lives may be in danger. An unintentional movement while sleeping may also cause cramps.

Most people believe that cramps are mainly caused by a lack of calcium, but calcium supplementation is a long process. Simply massage the middle of the back of the calf. When you straighten your calf or lift your heel, you can find the pointed depression under the belly of the gastrocnemius muscle. This acupoint is Chengshan, which can stop leg cramps.

3. Cough

Coughing can occur in any season. It is mainly caused by reduced body immunity, which causes the tonsils to be inflamed. Taking medicine can only suppress the cough temporarily, but it will reappear soon.

If you are studying or working, it will have a great impact on others. Turn your head to the side and fold your earlobe forward. There is an acupuncture point called Jiaosun where the tip of the ear meets the hairline. You can use the knuckles of your thumb to press the Jiaosun points on both sides of the brain for about one minute to stop the cough.

4. Insomnia

Due to irregular living habits and unreasonable diet, coupled with high family and work pressure, people's sleep quality is getting worse and worse. Staying up late and insomnia have begun a vicious cycle, seriously affecting people's daily lives.

However, in order to have a good sleep, most people keep taking sleeping pills, which eventually causes disorders in their bodies.

Stand upright on the midline of the outer thigh with your hands hanging at your sides. The Fengshi point is where the tip of your middle finger is. Pressing the Fengshi point firmly for about one minute can induce sleepiness and treat insomnia.

5. Headache

When people are under too much pressure at work or study, they will experience neuralgia. Most people who encounter this symptom will go to the pharmacy to buy some headache medicine for treatment. In fact, this is completely unnecessary. Simply massaging the Fengchi point on the head can relieve the symptoms of headache.

Fengchi point is located at the back of the neck, under the back of the skull, in the depression on the outer edges of two large tendons, which is equivalent to the level of the earlobe. Massaging Fengchi point for about one minute can effectively relieve headache symptoms.
