Acupressure for hay fever

(Pollen) Allergy Overview
For any type of allergy, you can massage the point Erjian. Do this every morning and evening for two minutes, on both the left and right ear.

Erjian is located at the top of your earlobe. If you lift yourself up by both ears, you've got the point.

Additionally, it is important to massage the Lieque point 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. You may often notice an extra sensitive spot somewhere. That's when you're 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 small piece of bone there, which is the end of your forearm.

If you suffer from big sneezing fits, 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 every morning and evening for two minutes to reduce the quantity and intensity of sneezing fits during the allergy season.

To locate the point Bi Tong, place your thumb and index finger on the nostrils, as if you are pinching your nose. Then, slide your fingers slightly upwards. The point is located in the fleshy part, right against the hard cartilage.

Do you suffer from watery eyes or itchy, swollen eyelids?
Then massage your entire earlobe for a minute.
And massage the Fengchi point on your neck every morning and evening for a minute. It also addresses other hay fever symptoms. Also great for headaches by the way.

Place your hand over your head, grab your neck, and move your thumb and index finger upward to the point where the neck transitions into the back of the head. Here, on both sides of the spine, lies the Fengchi point.
