Healing Fingers

Healing Fingers We all use touch for therapy – when we think, we put our chin on  our fist, and when we're uncomfortable, we rub our hands  together as if we're cold. Even babies suck on their thumbs when  they go to sleep. We don't do all of these things for nothing, as  each part of our body is connected to a whole system. If we know  where to apply pressure in the system, we can overcome various  physical and mental symptoms.

Finger Touch Therapy originates from an ancient Chinese  technique, in which every finger relates to different organs and  emotions. In a study conducted by the Mercy Cancer Center in the  U.S., all of the participants experienced beneficial sensations,  including reduced stress and nausea during chemotherapy.  Additionally, many patients that reported difficulties sleeping  found that by holding their thumb and taking deep breaths,  they were able to fall asleep much faster. It is assumed that  thumb holding is related to the way babies suck on their  thumbs, but either way, both patients and doctors strongly  recommend this method. To use this technique, all you have to do is make a fist around the  finger that’s connected to the sensation or body-part you wish to  soothe, and slowly apply pressure to it for 3-5 minutes while  breathing deeply. If you want to balance your whole body, simply  do it for each finger on both hands.
