Runny nose is quite common in our daily life. For example, a cold is the most likely cause of runny nose. When a runny nose occurs, in addition to medication and paying attention to diet, it can also be relieved through massage. Massaging acupoints is a traditional Chinese medicine treatment method with a good therapeutic effect. For example, when a runny nose occurs due to a cold, you can massage the Yingxiang point and the Yintang point, both of which have good therapeutic and relieving effects. How to get rid of runny nose quickly with massage 1. Massage Yingxiang acupoint for runny nose caused by cold Use the middle finger or index finger of both hands to press the Yingxiang point (about 0.5 inches away from the midpoint of the outer edge of the nose, in the depression of the nasolabial groove) 12 times. Massaging this point can not only help improve local blood supply and prevent and treat nasal diseases, but also prevent and treat facial nerve paralysis. 2. Massage Yintang acupoint for runny nose caused by cold Use the tips of your thumb, index finger or middle finger to press the Yintang point (located on the forehead, at the intersection of the line between the two eyebrows and the front midline) 12 times. You can also use the pads of the middle fingers of both hands to massage the Yintang acupoint alternately left and right. Massaging the Yintang point can enhance the proliferation ability of the nasal mucosal epithelial cells, stimulate the olfactory cells, and make the sense of smell more sensitive. Location: Fengchi point is located at the back of the neck, in the depression on the outer edge of the two large tendons under the back of the skull, parallel to the earlobe. Technique: Open your hands, place the tips of your thumbs on the Fengchi point, and place the rest of your fingers close to the back of the pillow. Press and rub the Fengchi point vigorously until you feel a noticeable soreness and swelling in the point. Efficacy: Fengchi point can help dispel wind. The so-called cold is also called "cold". Massaging Fengchi point is very beneficial for colds. 3. Massage Zusanli for runny nose caused by cold It is located 3 inches below the knee. Because it is an acupuncture point that strengthens the whole body, there is a saying among the people that "rubbing and pressing Zusanli is equivalent to eating an old hen." The specific operation method is as follows: first bend your knees, place the palm of one hand directly on the patella of the knee joint, stretch four fingers downward, and the acupoint is 1 inch outside the point reached by the middle fingertip. Then use the one-finger pushing method for 5 to 10 minutes; then use the friction wheel to rub 100 to 200 times. Applying some massage lotion or safflower oil on the acupoints will have better effects. Moxibustion on this point for 10 minutes, 1 to 2 times a day, is also very effective, but it is not suitable for infants and young children. 4. Massage the wind gate for runny nose caused by cold 1.5 inches (2 finger widths) lateral to the inferior spinous process of the second thoracic vertebra. Massaging this acupoint is very effective in treating symptoms such as colds, coughs, fever, headaches, stiff neck, chest and back pain. For specific operation methods and precautions, please refer to Zusanli above. This method can be performed by family members or with the help of a massage device. |
