Liver Meridian Acupressure Point in Forward Fold


There is a great acupressure point on the liver meridian called Liver 3. It is good for headaches, dizziness, blurred vision, red, swollen and painful eyes, PMS, chest pain, digestive issues and most importantly is a calming point for anger, irritability and insomnia.


To locate this point bend your knees or sit down and reach down onto the top of your foot. Feel the valley between your first and second toes and follow it up until it ends. At this junction point is Liver 3.
This point can be pressed while relaxing in a Standing Forward Fold which is also helpful for calming the nerves.
