Get Rid Of The Annoying Runny Nose With THIS Massage Technique

For many people, having a runny nose is a daily annoyance. The draining and dripping seem to never end, and it’s always necessary to carry around plenty of tissues. According to Mayo Clinic, causes of a runny nose include sinus infections, common colds, flu, hay fever, environmental allergies, food allergies, pet allergies, tobacco smoke, dry air, and more. A runny nose can occur along with or without nasal congestion.

Runny Nose

Conventional treatments for a runny nose include nasal sprays, but these contain harmful ingredients that are not worth the risk. In addition, nasal sprays can have a rebound effect, meaning that your nose may seem better when you’re using them, but when you stop using them the nasal symptoms are even worse than before. This causes the sprays to seem addictive. If you’ve suffered from a persistent runny nose and have tried all sorts of solutions without success, there’s one more possibility that you may not have tried.

Face Massage

A completely natural, safe, effective, and even enjoyable treatment is available that can eliminate the symptom of a runny nose. Even better, it doesn’t cost anything and doesn’t take much time to do. It’s a massage that involves gently pressing on certain specific places on your face.

Here are the points to massage:

Eyebrow area: This point is located on the skin in between your eyebrows, at the same level as the tops of your eyebrows, and halfway between the left and right sides of your face.

Sides of eyes: Each of these points is located about 3/4 inch to the side of one of your eyes. You can massage both of these points at the same time.

Bridge and eyes: Each of these points is located about 1/2 inch from the inside of one of your eyes and toward the bridge of your nose. You can massage both of these points at the same time.

The base of a nose: Each of these points is located on your cheeks, about 3/4 inch from the side of each of your nostrils at the base of your nose. You can massage both of these points at the same time.

Massage Instructions

Start with either the point between the eyebrows or any of the other sets of points. Gently but somewhat firmly press on that area with your clean fingers. Move your fingers in a circular motion. Continue massaging for a minute or so. Move to the next set of points, and move through all of the points until you’ve massaged all of them. Repeat this entire facial massage sequence as needed.

In case, you experience any pain or tenderness, either massage more gently or discontinue massaging temporarily. These areas and points on your face can be sensitive to touch when your sinuses are irritated, so be gentle especially when first starting this type of massage.
