What Happens to Your Body if You Massage This Point on Your Forehead? 3 Amazing Things

Acupuncture is no longer just for practitioners. There are currently massage exercises you can learn and perform on your own, especially when it comes to pain caused by pressure in the temple area.

In recent years, several studies have attempted to explain why traditional Chinese medicine, which often uses this method, can achieve solutions as effective as, if not more than, conventional medicine when it comes to healing diseases.

Scientists have discovered that MRI technology is the equivalent of these techniques, allowing for the application of reflexology or acupressure on specific points of the body. They suggest that by pressing on various facial points (as well as the foot and other areas), these meridians can affect numerous other regions. "When you press this point above the forehead, you activate the body's entire subcutaneous energy center, and by gently pressing it, you can stimulate blocked energy flow to bring about balance," the scientists explain.

This 'blocked energy' is caused by physical or emotional traumas we have experienced, and to heal our body, we need to achieve the desired balance.

According to them, three things will happen as you continue pressing this point:

1. You will develop self-awareness that will influence weight loss.

2. Levels of anxiety and daily stress will decrease, and you'll feel your muscles are less 'tense'.

3. Brain function will improve.

How long should you massage the point?

About 45 seconds to a minute each time.
