Migraine?

Answer:

Yes, and it works great! (I am a migraine sufferer myself). Hard to explain, but I will try: use your thumb and pincher finger to apply firm pressure around the bridge of your nose, kinda up and in your eye area. It will HURT after 30 seconds, that's how you'll know you're doing it correctly. Do that for a minute and alternate this with "tapping" under your eyes on the eye socket bone. Using three fingers (no pinky, no thumb) and gently tap under the eye for another minute. Alternate these two therapies several times and you should get results, Sometimes you'll actually hear/feel a pop as your sinuses open up. I know some people also use "tapping" above the eyes on their forehead. Give it a try, good luck!

This works for me: sudafed and imitrex!

There are 3 that I am aware of: Large Intestine 20, located where the bottom outer edge of the nostril meets the maxilla. This point is good for treating sinusitis and upper respiratory tract infections.

Gall Bladder 14, halfway up the forehead from the middle of each eyebrow. For headaches & eyestrain.

Gall Bladder 20, is most easily located if you put your chin to your chest, you should feel a large neck muscle tighten on both sides of your head. At the outside of these muscles, just at the hairline, these points are good for headaches, colds, sinusitis and congestion in the head.
