Accupressure point ST 36

Here’s What Happens When You Massage THIS Point On Your Leg

According to Chinese medicine, the body is an energy system, and the flow of that energy determines how well your body’s organs and tissues function. 

Accupressure, which is the application of pressure on certain points, was founded by a Japanese man named Zu San Li thousands of years ago.

In traditional Chinese medicine, there are 365 points that need to be massaged on the body which emanate from 12 meridians, or major points of energy flow. 

Activating these points can slow down aging and may even impact how the body fights off disease.

What’s so special about this spot on your shin?

San Li called it the “point of longevity.” It’s said to be a major controller of how energy flows to your digestive system, kidneys, adrenal glands, and sexual organs.

It has major implications on your immune system, which when in working order, helps fight off disease and slow aging.

Boost Health by Massaging This Accupressure Ear Point

People around the world are constantly searching for alternative and natural ways to help treat their health conditions and disorders. They don’t want to have to rely on modern health options that usually involve harsh, expensive pharmaceuticals, which often have even worse side effects than their actual issue. Many people end up turning to homeopathic remedies in an effort to naturally balance and heal their bodies, as well as their minds. One of the most popular and effective treatment methods is hands down auricular acupuncture. It’s an easy, all natural way to help treat a variety of health issues and people have found that by using the simple techniques associated with it they could dramatically relieve pain and discomfort associated with many common ailments.

The treatment is similar to reflexology, which is the stimulation of a reflex point to relieve and help regulate abnormalities between different body parts. However, with auricular acupuncture different parts of the ear are stimulated either manually by pressing finger tips on certain points, or by using very short and thin acupuncture needles.

The most commonly used location stimulated on the ear is the Shen Men point, which in Chinese means “heavenly gate.” The Shen Men point is located in the apex of the triangular fossa of the ear, which is in the upper mid-center part, above the opening of the ear canal and the surrounding folds. This is the most active treatment point and can be used to treat stress, anxiety, allergies, headaches, addictions, inflammatory diseases, depression, pain disorders, and more.

The Shen Men acupressure point that you can stimulate on your own is explained and covered in the video. Michael Reed Gach shows you how to locate the exact area on the ear, and demonstrates how you should hold your fingers on the points. Massage the points by rotating your fingertips and applying a bit of pressure for at least a minute or longer each time you do it. He suggests massaging them at least once or twice a day to help enhance your bodies overall energy flow. Doing this will help to reduce inflammation, alleviate pain, lessen addictions or cravings, and result in better overall body health.

The treatment is incredibly simple, easy to do, and can be done anywhere at anytime. You have nothing to lose and potentially lots to gain by massaging the Shen Men point. Try it today and pass this along to others to help them find comfort and better health in their own lives!
