Acupressure
To relieve hay fever and
allergic sneezing and itching, press point LI 4, situated
in the webbing between your thumb and index finger, close
to the bone at the base of the index finger. Hold
this point with your thumb on top of the webbing and your
index finger underneath, then squeeze into the webbing,
angling the pressure toward the bone that connects the
index finger to the hand. Work on one hand, then on the
other. Hold firmly for about one minute per hand while
breathing slowly and deeply. This is not recommended
for pregnant women, because pressing this point can cause
contractions of the uterus. |
