Help your kids fight colds with Acupressure Massage!



Help your kids fight colds with Acupressure Massage!


Like all kids my two get sick from time to time. I’m pretty lucky because I try feed them lots of nutritious foods, plenty of water and some vitamin supplements especially in winter. But they are shocking when it comes to runny noses. I’m forever having to hand them tissues and the younger one is perfectly happy to let it drip down his face. Yuck!

So I’ve come across this book written in 1976 by Frank Bahr “The Acupressure Health Book”. Among many conditions listed is Colds and catarrh. This is a massage technique not requiring needles as in acupuncture. I’ve taken a snap shot of the book below. My son found the massage very relaxing. Actually he said “again, again”. The great news is it stopped his nose running. When I say stopped I mean it instantly stopped. Hours later it started to return I just did it again and it stopped again. Amazing!! Because he no longer had the mucus running down his throat it also stopped him coughing and started breathing a lot easier.

With such a fantastic result I had to share it. Give it a try and let me know how you go. Just start the massage at the blue dot and move in the direction of the arrow.
