Location: Between the eyebrows, higher than the nose bridge, where your eyebrow ridges meet. And this is where you will be focusing.

Directions: Simply press or tap on this amazing pressure point for about one minute.

Results: This will have your mucus secreting as it should be, meaning your sinuses won't dry up and get inflamed. It will relieve pressure from your frontal sinuses. This massage can keep colds and rhinitis at bay too. Taping a little bead of plastic or glass on this point will even help you nod off at night if you have trouble doing so. Other results you could see are improved concentration and even intuition. This point helps activate a region of your brain that reduces nervous tension. It can even help with the regeneration of the skin around your eyes and mouth. 

2. The sides of your nostrils

3. Your nose bridge

Location: At the top of your nose where it joins the eyebrow ridge.

Directions: Press inwards and upwards simultaneously. It is possible to hold this pressure for up to 5 minutes. But first you should experiment with briefer periods.

Results: Many of us instinctively put pressure on this point when we have a headache, that is because this point helps relieve pressure behind your eyes. By doing so it can also wake your eyes up. 

4. Beneath your cheeks

Location: The base of your cheekbone.

Directions: Trace with your finger along your cheek bone until you find the spot which feels tender as you press inside against the cheek.

Results: This pressure point effects a release of pressure from all of your sinuses and eustachian tubes. If you feel pressure or pain in the maxillary sinuses, cheeks or mouth (e.g. toothache) this will be a great remedy.

5. At the philtrum

Directions: Against your nose's base push inwards and upwards.

Results: If you push here for a long enough time you can stop your sneezes and even allergic reactions from occurring, should you feel them about to erupt. Even after a couple of seconds your sinuses will begin draining down your throat, if you are a bit clogged up.

6. Your eyebrows

sinuses

Location: This is an area, rather than a point, which follows your eyebrow's ridge.

Directions: Using your thumbs press upwards and gradually move out.
