hen it comes to taking care of my own health, I don’t want to go to the doctor for every single little problem. After all, for minor aches and pains, a doctor can only do so much.
I much prefer to be personally in control of how I take care of my body, like with this brilliant pain-relief method using a simple clothespin.
And when I spotted this exclusive method for improving my health with the use of an ice cube, I was skeptical at first, but thought it was definitely worth a try.
According to Chinese medicine, there is a pressure point at the base of the skull known as “feng fu.” This spot is used by acupuncturists, because of its connection to so many different areas of health.
As someone who doesn’t have the time or the money for acupuncture all of the time — and who doesn’t necessarily want to be pricked with a whole bunch of needles — there is a simple and effective method for dealing with a lot of minor pains and smaller health issues. All I have to do is put an ice cube on the back of my neck — it really is that easy!
While this method based in Chinese medicine should never take the place of medical advice, I definitely plan to give this “feng fu” ice cube method a shot — it can’t hurt, and it just might help!
Did this ice cube idea work for you? Let us know in the comments.
To access the many health benefits associated with 'feng fu,' lay on your stomach and place an ice cube on the 'feng fu' point. Keep it there for 20 minutes. Try this once in the morning on an empty stomach and once at night, every two to three days.
