In alternative medicine, pressure points are used to heal the body and treat various issues and pains by improving the flow of energy throughout the body. Most of us are familiar with their use primarily in the context of reducing stress or pain relief, but it turns out that they are also used to reduce feelings of appetite and hunger. The following 5 pressure points that you will learn about will help you control your hunger effectively, and all you need to do is massage these areas with gentle pressure for the recommended duration for each one. If you do this consistently every day, you will feel the change within the first week, and it will be much easier for you to maintain your weight and health.
1. Pressure point for controlling hunger in the ear
This is one of the main points that will help you control hunger. Press with your thumb on the marked point on the face, just before the triangular cartilage next to the ear canal. Open and close the jaw to find the exact point where the most movement occurs, and press on it for 1-3 minutes, twice a day.
2. Pressure point for controlling hunger on the upper lip
The next point you want to massage to control appetite is located between the upper lip and the nose, in the center of the face. Press on it for 1-5 minutes twice a day, and in addition to reducing hunger, it will also help relieve anxiety and stress.
3. Pressure point for controlling hunger on the knee
Pressing on this point will not only improve your body's digestive processes but will also help women reduce the discomfort during menstruation, caused by muscle contractions in the abdomen. The point is located 5 cm (the width of 5 fingers) below the kneecap, on the outer side of the bone. Apply pressure on this point on both legs using your index finger for 2 minutes every day.
4. Pressure point for controlling hunger on the elbow
This point is located about a thumb's distance from the elbow joint crease towards the forearm, on the outer side of the forearm. Press on it with your thumb for one minute, once a day on both arms. Massaging this point will also help release heat from the body, and in addition, it stimulates bowel functions and prevents fluid retention.
5. Pressure point for controlling hunger on the ankle
To locate this point, place a hand above the ankle on the inner side of the leg, and you will find it at a distance of 5 fingers from it towards the knee. Apply pressure on the point for one minute with your thumb once a day and then slowly release the pressure. Afterward, repeat the pressure on the other leg. It is recommended that pregnant women avoid using this pressure point.
If you consistently perform the pressure on these points according to these instructions every day, you will feel the change in your body and sensations within a week. Good luck!
