Self-Help Remedy (Acupressure) For Allergic Reactions That Anyone Can Use

Forsyth County, Alpharetta-Cumming Chiropractor and Chronic Pain-Fibromyalgia Doctor Comments:

120px-RightHandI’ve been treating chronic pain and Fibromyalgia for the past 17 years here at South Forsyth Chiropractic in the Alpharetta-Cumming area with great success.

My massage therapist is trained in acupressure and treats these acu-points as part of her session.  It is especially effective for Fibromyalgia and/or chronic pain sufferers.

I found this wonderful article about treating allergies with acupressure and I know that you’ll find it useful.  Check it out.

Here’s an excerpt:

Michael ReedGach, Ph.D., director of the Acupressue Institute in Berkeley, California, has found that allergic reactions can often be relieved through acupressure, the use of fingertips in place of needles to stimulate acupoints. 

Dr. Gach explains, “As soon as you begin experiencing an allergic reaction, apply pressure on the point in the center of the webbing of your hand, between your thumb and index finger.” 

“Gradually apply firm pressure onto the point, angling the pressure toward the bone that connects with the index finger,” Dr. Gach instructs. 

He recommends keeping a constant pressure for at least two minutes while taking slow, deep breaths.  Then repeat the process to the same point on your other hand.  “This point works like an antihistamine,” Dr. Gach further explains.  “I have found that this simple technique can often quickly arrest an allergy attack, making it a useful self-help remedy that anyone can use.”

My Take:  This technique works very well.  Also, acupressure points, trigger points and pressure points can be treated in many other areas along the nerve pathways for many different symptoms associated with Fibromyalgia and chronic pain.  I actually teach workshops on Pressure Point Therapy for local businesses and groups.  The participants can quickly and easily learn this simple technique to use on themselves or others.

Dr. Kurt Meininger is clinic director of South Forsyth Chiropractic in the Alpharetta-Cumming area and can be reached at 770-777-0900.
