Use Shiatsu for Heartburn
Heartburn, or reflux esophagitis, is a burning sensation in the esophagus, throat and/or chest. Shiatsu applies various pressure techniques to quiet your nervous system, calm your churning stomach, slow the increased acid production activated by stress, and alleviate the burning symptoms of reflux.
Instructions
1. Decrease the high acidity of your stomach and cool your heartburn by stimulating the point on the top of your foot where the bones between the second and third toe meet.
2. Press the middle of the joint on the front of your ankle to clear heat from your stomach and ease heartburn.
3. Remove fullness and burning in your stomach by pressing the point found on the web between your second and third toe.
4. Lower your anxiety level and promote the downward flow of stomach energy by pressing gently on the point located on the center of your breastbone and level with the nipples.
5. Relieve indigestion and calm a rebellious stomach by pressing the point on the inside of your foot where the ball and the arch meet.
