Acupressure, a type of Chinese medicine, is an ancient way of transferring energy throughout the body to heal and alleviate pain. While it is more traditionally known to heal, acupressure can also promote female fertility. With the use of pressure and massage on certain points of the body, a surge of fertility related hormones and ovulation take place. While there can be many reasons for infertility, before consulting with a doctor, the less expensive treatment is acupressure. You can spend thousands of dollars on infertility treatment, or you could use acupressure for fertility. It's your choice. This article will guide you through the various acupressure techniques you can use on your body to promote fertility.
Instructions
Massage and Stimulate
1. Promote an overall healthy body by stimulating and massaging between your eyebrows. Right in the middle, between your eyebrows, rub firmly in clockwise circles. Fertility is optimal when the entire body is functioning at its peak level. This acupressure point will help you achieve your optimum level by increasing circulation.
2. Lightly rub your fingertips back and forth right on your hairline. This is thought to help regulate your ovulation and periods. It is most helpful to use this technique if you have irregular periods or you find you are not ovulating each month.
3. Massage your belly a couple of inches below your belly button during your period. Going in a clockwise motion works well. Use gentle, but firm pressure on this conception meridian.
4. Grab both earlobes with your index fingers and thumbs. With your index fingers in front, and your thumbs in back, massage the space between the earlobe and the where the cartilage begins. Use upward strokes.
5. Travel your fingers up your ear until your fingertips are on the uppermost ridge. Gently pinch this ridge and move your fingers back and forth along the top. This will stimulate a healthy uterus as well as healthy fallopian tubes.
