Would you like to clear your head?

* Acupuncture Super Point *

Name: YINTANG

Translation: Hall of impression

Location: midway between the eyebrows

This wonderful point overlies the frontal sinus and bridge of the nose. As you'd expect it treats a wide range of nasal problems including - nasal congestion, rhinitis, hayfever, sinus pain and nosebleeds.

The second benefit of YINTANG is its ability to calm a person's nerves. It treats insomnia, anxiety and stress.

The feeling of pressure building up around the forehead is familiar to anyone with a stressful life. The third benefit of YINTANG is the treatment of frontal headaches, particularly tension headaches.

Finally you may have noticed this point is not associated with a particular meridian or channel as most acupuncture points are... instead it correlates to the location of the third eye, the wisdom chakra - I think this can only be an added bonus!
