2. Stomach 36 (ST36)
- Location: ST36, also known as “Zusanli,” is found four finger widths below the kneecap and one finger width to the outside of the tibia (shinbone).
- Benefits: ST36 is renowned for its ability to improve circulation, boost energy levels, and alleviate digestive issues. It is also beneficial for reducing muscle stiffness and promoting overall relaxation.
- How to Use: Apply gentle yet firm pressure to ST36, using a circular motion. Spend 2-3 minutes massaging each leg. Regular stimulation of this point can help maintain general health and reduce muscular tension.
How Acupressure Points Work
Acupressure operates on the principle of stimulating specific points on the body to enhance its natural self-healing abilities. By pressing or massaging these key points, you can influence the flow of Qi (vital energy) and blood circulation, which in turn helps to reduce pain, inflammation, and stiffness.
- Increased Circulation: By stimulating these points, you encourage better blood flow to the affected areas, which helps to reduce stiffness and promote healing.
- Muscle Relaxation: Acupressure helps to release muscle tension and alleviate discomfort by targeting specific points associated with muscle and joint pain.
- Deep Relaxation: Regular acupressure can contribute to a state of overall relaxation, which can be particularly beneficial for managing chronic pain and stress-related discomfort.
