Get rid of pain quickly and without drugs
If it doesn’t please you to be constantly popping pills, acupressure is a great natural alternative whose effectiveness will surprise you. You don’t have to worry that you couldn’t do it yourself. We’ll convince you that it’s really not difficult. A little practice is enough and you can try it right away.
Start the massage at the very onset of the pain. Don’t wait until your head starts pounding like a bell. You need to start as soon as you feel that your head is, so to speak, “aching”.
Where is this mysterious point that will relieve you of pain located
Stretch out all the fingers of your left hand. The point is located between the thumb and the index finger. Exactly in the middle between the bones (the soft part which, when spread, resembles a small mound).
Grip this point with the thumb and index finger of your right hand. This activates the point and you can begin the pressure massage. Start gently, gradually increase the pressure over time, but it shouldn’t be unbearably painful. Press the point rhythmically for 20–30 seconds. Repeat this procedure 3 times, then switch hands and repeat the whole procedure as well.
