Reflexology for Sinus
Simply taking a deep breath would be enough for one to inhale hundreds of irritants that can result in blocked sinuses. These are inclusive of pollen, cigarette smoke, dust, cold germs and exhaust fumes from cars, trucks, buses and lawn mowers.
A recent study found that the day by day stimulation of reflexology points can be extremely useful and effective for hypertonic sinus lavage in treating chronic sinusitis. People who are seeing doctors for this issue should take out some time and try to add reflexology to their sinus lavage regime.
You can find your reflexology points easily. They are present on the side opposite the nail on the tips of all ten toes along with all of the fingers - apart from the thumbs. All of these are reflexology points and all of these points and zones correspond to tissues of the sinuses, which need to be stimulated so as to get it cured.
In order to help yourself with your sinus, apply pressure using the thumb and index finger for about twenty to thirty seconds, nearly one to three times each and every day to each of the points. A bit of discomfort might be felt here, but you need to go on as it will eventually cure your problem.
The tips of the toes that are present on the right foot are the ones that correspond to the sinuses. This is a very interesting point to remember if you or someone close to you suffers from sinus. Just by stimulating the balls of the toes one can easily stimulate the sinus cavities. By using the term stimulating, it means using the thumbing motion by simply just taking the thumb and rub going in an upward motion along each toe. This is the trick needed to actually stimulate the sinus cavities. For those who have sinus or have people in their friends and family who suffer from the problem, this is a very good technique to use to help them get some relief.
