In addition, it is important to massage the point Lieque on the lung meridian. Because the point is located in a groove in this bone, it is advisable to massage a slightly larger area for one minute, both in the morning and in the evening. Often you will notice an extra sensitive spot somewhere. Then you are on the right track!

The point Lieque can be found on the wrist, near the transition from the wrist to the attachment of the thumb. You will feel a piece of bone there that is the end of your forearm.

If you suffer from big sneezes, massage the point Bi Tong. This point is located on both sides of the nose. You can massage this point to stop a sneezing attack, but you can also massage it for two minutes every morning and evening to reduce the amount and intensity of sneezing during the allergy season.
