2:25 Acupressure for pain relief

1. Brain fog eraser

Brain fog is typically the result of a hypoglycemic situation, so increasing your high-quality protein intake is a helpful solution. The best protein source is nutrient-dense red meat.


2. Increase CO2

Stress affects breathing and can cause you to take in too much oxygen. Increasing carbon dioxide by breathing through your nose may help with stress and also improve sleep, especially if you’re stressed out.


3. Gallbladder massage

To find the gallbladder, press underneath the right rib cage and massage this area. This can help improve digestion and eliminate right shoulder pain.


4. Acupressure for pain relief

The best acupressure technique for pain involves finding the mirror location of your pain on the opposite side of the body. Instead of applying pressure to the pain, you’ll apply pressure to this spot.


5. Fix tight muscles

Be sure to stretch the muscle opposite of the muscle that’s causing you problems.


6. Sea salt under the tongue

This works for weak muscles and can also work for fatigue.


7. Neck pain relief for instant relaxation

A relaxed neck is vital for good sleep. For neck pain relief, apply pressure at the base of the hairline for instant relaxation. Apply pressure to this spot for about 2 minutes.


8. Apple cider vinegar

Combine 1 tablespoon of apple cider vinegar with 3 to 4 ounces of water. Wait about 2 minutes and drink one more! This helps digestion and triggers the pancreas and gallbladder to release digestive juices.


9. Joint pain relief exercises

Joint pain typically stems from a problem with your fascia—the connective tissue that covers the entire body. Stretching the fascia on the opposite side of the pain can often provide joint pain relief.


10. Headache pain relief

Headaches often stem from past head injuries. Acupressure can provide headache pain relief if you apply pressure around the painful area.


11. Sinus relief

Acupressure massage can provide instant relief for any type of breathing problem, such as sleep apnea, a deviated septum, and sinus problems.
