Which acupressure points may help you relieve colds, chest congestion, and balance the thyroid gland? According to Acupressure Points Guide, three great points for fighting colds are the LI4, LI11, and GV24.5. The LI4 "is situated in between the thumb and the index finger . . . on the back of the hand" and is good for fighting a cold. According to Modern Reflexology, the LI4 may also help in controlling hyperthyroidism. A caution is given to pregnant women to not stimulate this point during pregnancy.
Acupressure Points states that LI11 may help with both a cold and fever from a flu. It is"on the outer ending of the elbow crease." Modern Reflexology reports that it may also help regulate the symptoms of hypothyroidism. GV24.5 "is situated exact in the middle of your eyebrows." When stimulated, this may help relieve congestion, a stuffy nose and hypothyroid symptoms.
The Shangri-La of pressure points for cold and thyroid in the world of acupressure appears to be the K27.
