How to Use Acupressure Points to Treat your Ear Issues

Treating your ear pain holistically is one of the best ways to take control of your own condition and apply a quick solution that can really help, particularly in the moment of experiencing pain or any other symptoms.

Here are some of the most potent acupressure points for earache treatment.

Ear-gate

This point is found right on the earlobe at the top of the ear. Applying pressure on both sides of the face at this point using your fingers can really help to relieve earache or any feelings of pressure inside the ear. It’s also a good point for helping headache or migraine discomfort.

Listening palace

This point is located directly below the ear gate point, just in front of the ear opening. It’s in a little dip that deepens when you open your mouth. If you apply pressure to this point on both sides of your face, using your fingers for up to 5 minutes it really helps to relieve pressure.

Reunion of Hearing

An acupressure point located directly below the listening palace and in front of the ear lobe. Stimulating this point on both sides of your face can help ringing in the ears, or heaviness in your head as well as feelings of dizziness.

Wind Screen

This pressure point is found right behind your earlobe, in the indention. When you stimulate this point for 3 to 5 minutes, it helps to relieve symptoms of tinnitus, facial spasms, jaw pain and toothache.

Hundred Convergences

This is a powerful acupressure point that has been used in traditional Chinese medicine for centuries for a wide variety of aliments (hence its name). It’s located right at the top center of your head.

Applying pressure to this point can alleviate ear ringing, buzzing, and other tinnitus symptoms as well as brain fog, anxiety, dizziness and vertigo.

Leading Valley

This pressure point is amazing at helping to cure tinnitus that has been exacerbated by the prolonged used of medicines and can neutralize the damage caused by toxins.

You find it by measuring two finger widths above the highest point of the ear lobe, in a straight line with the temple. Applying stimulation to this point on both sides of your head relieves tinnitus ear ringing, tension in your jaw and face, ear fullness, vertigo and headaches.

Forehead (third eye)

Located between your eyebrows and just above the top of your nose is the third eye point. Applying acupressure here can promote the release of tension in your cheeks, jaws, and forehead muscles as well as promoting sinus drainage.

It’s a good point to focus on to relieve muscle spasms and tension that lead to ear issues.

Union Valley (between thumb and forefinger)

The beauty and wonder of acupressure is that you can apply pressure to a point elsewhere on your body (hands and feet) and affect your head and your ears. So while it might seem strange this remedy is actually extremely effective.

This pressure point is located on the bit of webbed skin between your thumb and forefinger. Place your fingers there and apply gentle pressure.

Bigger Stream

This point is found halfway between the inside of the ankle bone and Achilles tendon at the backside of the ankle. Placing good pressure on this point in both your feet can help to relieve ringing in your ears and any pain related to your teeth and jaw.

Why not give these acupressure points a try? They are a great way to support a holistic approach to healing your ear discomfort.
