Translated from Chinese, su-jok means hands and feet. The Chinese say that all the organs of our body are projected precisely on these limbs, and that for the treatment of, say, teeth, an appointment with a dentist can be postponed for a long time, if you correctly press on a certain point on the palm of your hand. It is quite difficult not to believe the people whose glorious ancestors are credited with the invention of paper and the tea ceremony. However, you can check.
According to the Chinese, the thumb and foot correspond to the head and neck, the other four fingers correspond to the upper and lower extremities, the palmar surface to the chest and abdomen, and that part of the palm, which is adjacent to the thumb, corresponds to the rib cage.
My head hurts?
In case of a headache with an ordinary pharmacy gum (or any other), we tighten the nail phalanx of the thumb (corresponding to the head), wait a few seconds – the upper part of the phalanx turns purple – and abruptly release the gum. Feeling as if something had “flowed” from the head. You can repeat the procedure several times until the condition improves.
Does your heart ache?
In case of pain in the heart, it is necessary to massage the projection of the heart on the hand as intensively as possible – the lower third of the muscle ridge, which is adjacent to the thumb. this area can be very painful. Relief comes fairly quickly, and validol can be taken.
Cough tormented?
A debilitating cough can be relieved by massaging the jugular notch at the base of the thumb. This point regulates the processes in the lungs. Massage is good to carry out with a fingernail of the index finger of the hand of the same name or through a grain of buckwheat or millet, fixed at the point with an adhesive plaster (preferably hypoallergenic).
