4 POINTS FOR DETOXIFYING THE BODY
Bladder Energy Points
There are 4 Key Energy Points for Detoxifying the Body’s energy Two focus on the Bladder Channel which begins just off the bridge of the nose.
The 2 Points you want to stimulate to activate the Bladder Channel’s energy are located higher up - where the Eyebrows Begin just off the bridge of the nose.
This channel, the Bladder Channel, goes back to the back of the head, running down the outside along the spine, then out through the leg all the way down and out through the little toe.
Press on these points with your thumbs or fingers. You can press and massage in a circular way.
Or you can press deep.
When you massage deep you will feel a little depression there – when you press on it don’t do it too long. 5 seconds and then release and wait like 2 or 3 seconds and do it again. But, don’t press it too long.
This energy channel has the most acupuncture points or energy points or any energy channel in the body - more than 60 points, the others are like 14 or 20. This channel has more than 3 times as many points among the 12 major energy channels.
This channel helps to collect all the junk stuff, or blockages, or energy garbage from the Lungs, from the Liver, from all of the major internal organs and then releases it all out through the little toe.
This helps with sinuses, allergies, headaches, migraine headaches, dizziness, eyesight problems, fever, coughing, lots of things connecting to any of the major organs.
That’s why these 2 points are very, very important. Massage and give a little pressure or give more pressure as it feels comfortable to you.
You can massage these points as often as you like. Try to massage for at least 30 seconds each time - longer if you have more time.
Stomach Channel Points
The second set of 2 points are on the cheek bones, directly below the center of the eyes.
These points are where the Stomach Channel starts.
When you massage these points you can press massage with your fingers or thumbs - or you can tap them with your finger tips. Tap it firm to the level that feels good to you.
Tapping or massaging these points can help you to take care of your runny nose, or allergies.
It also helps to open all the energy blockages in the front of the body – down through the chest, breasts, to the lungs, the liver, from the thighs and way, way down to the second toe – releasing the energy out through the second toe.
You can massage these points as often as you like. Try to massage for at least 30 seconds each time - longer if you have more time.
By tapping these 4 points it helps you to clear all of the energy blockages in the body. These are the 2 major energy channels for helping to dump the garbage out.
It’s like what the liver does with the physical toxins in the body – these 2 channels take all the energetic “garbage” out.
