Question 6. I am 61 years old, suffering from hyper-tension (since 1 year), stress, acidity and insomnia. Please suggest accupressure points for such ailments.  - Roque Afonso On 7 March 2010

For hyper tension, please press the BP points illustrated. This should help you reduce your stress too. You can press the Lymph Gland point for Insomnia & the acidity point on the fore finger for reducing acidity. You could also try taking 8 – 10 grains of raw rice every morning before breakfast for 21 days to reduce acidity. Gulp down the raw grains of rice with water every morning and press the points 8 time each, 3 times a day.

Question 7. I have delivered a baby 15 days back by cesarean I am taking iron and calcium supplements and acidity tablet Pan-40. I feel chakkar and increased heart palpitation from the morning till 4-5 pm in the evening. I feel normal in evening. when I try to to sleep in day, I feel more chakkar I sleep some hours in the night,as I am breastfeeding my baby. I have a slight sinus, my doctor advised me to take steam for chakkar. I also take neembu pani twice as per my doctor. I am tired of doing so many things, pls suggest some solution  - Divya Singh On 4 April 2010

In order to reduce the chakkar and get a good sleep, you should do the Lymph gland Point and the Cervical Point. Lack of sleep can trigger acidity levels in the body and hence you may be having high acidity too. For this you need to do the acidity points. Apart from this, as a general immunity booster, you must do the tips of all the fingers of your hands.

Home Remedy for Acidity: Swallow about 8 - 10 grains of raw rice every morning with water before having eating anything. Do this for 21 days and you will see effective results.

Please suggest me points so that I can get some relief.  - Neeta Mehta On 20 April 2010

Knee joint problems occur commonly at this age. One must do the knee joint pain points on both the hands, the K 10 point on both the legs and Liv 3 point on both the feet. To avoid the knee joint pain, you must drink enough quantity of water. The amount of water to be consumed everyday is 30 ml per kg of the body weight. So, if your weight is 60 kgs, you should consume 60 X 30 ml = 1.8 Ltrs of water minimum everyday. During summer season, you should increase the water consumption by 20% more.

Question 9. My 7 year old son is having a mild effect of cerebral palsy and having tip-toe walking (specially right leg). His calf muscles of right leg are very stiff. Most of the Doctors have suggested continuous physiotherapy and use of calipers in both legs. Is there any treatment in accupressure, please suggest.  - Amit Kumar On 1 April 2010

For Cerebral Palsy, you should do the points of the brain - Pituitary and Pineal. Along with this, since he has problems in the leg, we can do his leg points, specifically on the ankle joint, the knee joint and the calf muscle point. Also do the Lymph Gland point, the gall bladder and spleen points. Apart from doing the points, gentle massage on the legs with your fingers can help too.

Question 10. Dear Sir, Can acupressure help in exactly determining a person`s overall condition, especially when the person is unable to describe the condition? Also sometimes the symptoms change to give contradictory conditions.  - Harsha Vardhana R On 5 April 2010

Acupressure can help in determining the symptomatic problem area of a person. By pressing the acupressure points, if there is pain experienced by the patient, we get to know which corresponding body area has the symptomatic problem shown by the patient. Not all problems have the root cause in the symptoms they show. For this purpose, we include Pulse Diagnosis. We check the pulse of the patients when they are on empty stomach early in the morning to determine what exactly the problem is and then treat them accordingly.
