The 2022-2023 winter was an unusually rainy and frigid one, with even a light dusting of snow near the beaches!&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Now that the longer days of Spring have finally arrived, a wildflower super bloom is on full display. But all that pollen is going to make lots of people miserable. If occasional seasonal allergies prevent you from running through a field of flowers with joy, there\u2019s one simple thing that may help: acupressure.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Find out what are the 7 best acupressure points. It\u2019s an easy and fast solution you can do while listening to music or even watching TV.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">How To Naturally Prevent Allergy Symptoms<br><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>In a perfect world, your immune system has perfect Yin\/Yang balance. And starting in February, you would go get at least a couple acupuncture treatments to prevent allergy symptoms. In addition, a couple weeks before the arrival of Spring, you\u2019d start taking <a href=\"https:\/\/www.activeherbwholesale.com\/Guang-Ci-Tang\/Te-Xiao-Bi-Min-Gan-Pian-Nasal-AllergiClear-Tablets\" class=\"ahw-link\" style=\"display:none;\" target=\"_parent\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Te Xiao Bi Min Gan Pian<\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/bimin\/\" class=\"retail-link\">Te Xiao Bi Min Gan Pian<\/a>, one of the most time-tested Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) herbal formulas for sinus support.&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<div class=\"x-short-quote-right\"> If occasional seasonal allergies prevent you from running through a field of flowers with joy, there\u2019s one simple thing that may help: acupressure. <\/div>\n\n\n\n<p>Of course, life\u2019s not perfect. February flies by and because it\u2019s so cold out, Spring seems like months away. Thus, you neglect to take action before your nose erupts like Old Faithful.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What then is the next best thing? Give yourself an acupressure massage. Acupressure isn\u2019t as luxurious as receiving a massage at a 5-star spa. But massaging certain acupressure points on your body is not only relaxing, research suggests it\u2019s effective for relieving occasional seasonal allergy symptoms.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>In fact, the results of a 2021 exploratory study published in <a href=\"https:\/\/pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov\/34922567\/\"><em>Chinese Medicine<\/em><\/a><em> <\/em>indicated that \u201cself-applied acupressure is feasible, may improve \u2026 quality of life and reduce \u2026 symptoms as well as anti-allergic medication\u201d in patients with seasonal allergic rhinitis.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>More research is needed to draw definitive conclusions about acupressure for seasonal allergy symptoms. However, acupressure is a 4,000 year old discipline that continues to be more accepted in Western medicine.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">What Are Acupressure Points?&nbsp;<\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p>You know how when you press on a certain area of the body, you can feel it in a totally different part of the body? That certain area that elicits a feeling in a distal region is an acupuncture point. You can think of acupressure points as mini-power substations of energy. In TCM theory, acupressure points are conduits of Qi (the body\u2019s energetic flow). Acupressure points are located on energetic pathways called meridians or channels, that are like superhighways for Qi.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Stimulating acupressure points promotes greater Yin\/Yang balance. Consequently, pain sensation lowers, greater relaxation sets in, and the body\u2019s organs are working more efficiently.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Out of the hundreds of acupressure points on the body,&nbsp;acu<em>puncturists <\/em>memorize hundreds of pressure points. But for the \u201cSpringtime Blues,\u201d all you have to do is learn a handful of points.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Before we explore the best acupressure points for occasional allergy symptom relief, a couple quick notes on how to apply pressure. The pressure should be firm but not painful. Aim to apply pressure on each point for 1-3 minutes. We\u2019ll highlight 7 points, so in the time it takes to watch your favorite sitcom, you can try all of them. <br><br>For best results, use your pointer or middle finger to apply pressure. Certain points like the webbing in between your thumb and pointer finger require using your thumb. Most notably, this includes Large Intestine 4, the first point we\u2019ll review\u2026<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\">Best Acupoints For Occasional Springtime Allergy Symptoms<\/h2>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI4-550x550.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5073\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI4-550x550.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI4-133x133.jpg 133w, https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI4-72x72.jpg 72w, https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI4-65x65.jpg 65w, https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI4.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ol>\n<li>Large Intestine 4 (LI4): LI4 is known as the Great Eliminator because it eliminates external invaders that cause allergy-like symptoms. In TCM theory, the biggest culprit of runny noses is Wind. LI4 releases the exterior. This means it gets rid of Wind from inside the body. This acupressure point also assists the Lungs to disperse any problematic invaders. In Chinese, LI4 is called Hegu, which roughly means Converging Valley, a reference to the point\u2019s location on the back of the hand, in the webbing between the thumb and pointer finger. Try LI4 to unblock sinuses, relieve pressure in the head, and for itchy eyes.&nbsp;<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n<div class=\"wp-block-image\">\n<figure class=\"alignright size-large is-resized\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" src=\"https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI20-550x550.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-5104\" width=\"150\" height=\"150\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI20-550x550.jpg 550w, https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI20-133x133.jpg 133w, https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI20-72x72.jpg 72w, https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI20-65x65.jpg 65w, https:\/\/www.activeherb.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/AH-acupresure-LI20.jpg 800w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 150px) 100vw, 150px\" \/><\/figure><\/div>\n\n\n<ol start=\"2\">\n<li>Large Intestine 20 (LI20): A fitting name for an acupressure point for someone who wants to smell the flowers, LI20 is \u201cYingxiang\u201d or Welcome Fragrance.
