What Is Ear Acupressure?

A method of massaging and lifting with both hands on different parts of the ear. Ear acupressure is painless and has ancillary effects on certain diseases such as headache, neurasthenia, and hypertension. Daily morning and evening long-term massage can stimulate the qi and pass through the meridian, and play a certain role in disease prevention and health care. The main massage methods are full-ear massage, hand-wheel, and lifting the earlobe. The whole ear massage method is to first rub the palms of both hands with fever. Then massage the back and back of the ear Guo successively. The hand-wheel method is to use both hands to hold the empty fist, and use the thumb and forefinger to massage back and forth along the wheel. Lifting the earlobe is sufficient to lift the earlobe by both hands, from light to heavy, 3-5min each time, morning and evening once a day. Ear Guo massage should be adhered to for a long time before it can work. Nowadays, using probes or pointers to massage on auricular points can also adjust the corresponding viscera function and local functions, so as to have the effects of sedation, analgesia and relaxation of energy. ^[1]
