Get rid of stuffed or running nose without drugs
Nasal congestion, stuffy nose, runny nose – these are common problems experienced by everyone, usually many times a year. We generally disregard it, if it’s on moderate levels but can get very annoyed when they are strong and require our attentions.
Yes, you could use a nasal spray to depress it for a while. But there are some problems with the sprays:
First, they are drugs (chemicals), might have side effects and are somewhat addictive.
Second, they cost money.
Third, you should have it with you whenever your nose drives you mad. This might not be the case every time, since you have to buy it first, and then carry it with you whenever you go (work, for example).
When I was little, one of my grandmothers has taught my father and me a very simple point massage technique that relieves nasal congestion fast and effectively, without leaving the bitter taste in your mouth. I wanted to share it with you.
Please look at the comments below the article to read about the many successes of this technique. Write about your results in the comments as well. (comments are moderated, so give time for them to appear).
I guess the massage is based on Chinese acupressure but I can’t be sure since at that time neither of us knew anything about it, and secondly, I’m not an expert at this now. There are only 4 easy points to massage, so it’s very easy to remember and always have it with you (in your head). Here how it goes:
Perform the below routine 3 times: Perform 10 pressures on a cavity at the corner of the nostrils (point 1). You should almost close and open the nostrils when you do the round movement.
Perform 10 pressures on a cavity just below the corner of the eyes near the nose (point 2)
Perform 10 pressures on a cavity just below the ear, behind the earlobe (point 3)
Massage the earlobe 10 times (point 4)
After performing the above 3 times, you should feel immediate relief of your nasal congestion. It is advised to return on the above procedure again in about 10 minutes to make it more permanent or the congestion could return.
Additional instructions: The pressures are actually round movement. Look at the pictures for exact motion.
Update:See moreclarification on the technique in my answer to a reader.
I hope these instruction will make you feel better next time you’ve got stuffy nose. Tell me if it helps you as much as it helps me and my family.
