Yintang acupoint is an extraordinary acupoint outside the meridians of the human body. It is also listed as one of the “rejuvenation methods” in “Dharma’s Secret Skills”, which shows its importance.

Operation method: Yintang point is in the middle of the line connecting the two eyebrows. When massaging, place your middle finger on the Yintang point and press it 10 times with strong force. Then rub clockwise for 20-30 circles and counterclockwise for 20-30 circles.

The Shenting point belongs to the Du meridian of the human body and has a therapeutic effect on the nervous system. Pressing these two acupoints has the same effect in eliminating headaches and dizziness and restoring brain vitality. Massaging at the same time will complement each other and the effect will be better.

Operation method: Shenting point is above Yintang point, about half an inch directly above the center of the hairline. The pressing and kneading method is the same as that of Yintang point.
