The medical branch that deals with pressing certain points of your body is called reflexology. The method is particularly effective on the ear area because there are many nerve endings on this area.

Each of these 6 different points on the ear is connected to pain and soreness in a specific part of the body. According to reflexology, applying pressure to each spot can relieve those aches.

Take a peg and place it on your ear so that you pressure the nerve endings on it, and you will be released from the unpleasant pain. There are 6 major points on your ear that connect it to parts of your body.

Pressing the following points will make your pain in a certain body part go away:

1. Shoulders and back pain

The upper part of your ear is the spot where your ear is connected to your back and the shoulders. Place the peg on this point of your ear and let it stay there for 60 seconds. The tension in your back is going to become relieved and the pain will go away.

If you want to have the best results possible, repeat the same thing for several times a day.

2. Organs

Right under the point for back pain lays the point for the internal organs. This is the point where all organs in your body are connected to your ear. You can either gently massage the spot or put a peg on it and the pain will go away. Still, if the pain is very intense, don’t hesitate to see your doctor.

3. Joints

The central part of your ear and the spot a little bit above it is the part where the connection with your joints is placed. Put a peg on that spot, press it and relieve the pain from your joints, whether it is in the wrists or in the ankles. If your pain is chronic, then you should visit your doctor.

4. Sinuses and throat

The paranasal sinuses and the throat are connected to the ear in the lower part. If you suffer from a cold or sinusitis in its initial phase, the peg can solve the problem very easily.

5. Digestion

The point for digestion is placed right under the point for sinuses. Press that point with a peg and the stomach ache and the spasms are going to disappear. Sometimes the pain goes off completely. What is even more interesting and useful, this is also a preventative method.

6. Head and heart

The most important parts of the body are the heart and the head and they are also connected to the ear in a spot that is the lowest of all aforementioned. Headaches and heart problems can remain in the past from now on if you press this point with the help of a peg.

These methods are very simple and easy to do and can make a big difference for you.
