SP6 – The spleen 6 point is considered one of the more versatile and commonly used points. SP6 is located above th<\/span>e <\/span>ankle<\/span><\/a>, <\/span>on the backside of the shinbone (lower calf). It\u2019s about the distance of four finger-widths above the inner ankle bone.<\/span><\/p>\nLI4 – <\/span>The most common point in acupressure therapy, the large intestine 4 point (LI4) is known as Hegu, meaning \u201cjoining valley.\u201d It\u2019s located on the back of the <\/span>hand<\/span><\/a>, deep between the webbing of your thumb and pointer finger. Like BL67, the LI4 point is believed to induce labor. It may also stop the pain and strengthen immunity, among other problem-relieving functions.<\/span><\/p>\nBL32 – Bladder 32 (BL32), also called the Ciliao which means the second crevice, it is located in the dimple of your buttocks, which you can find by running your fingers down your spine until you reach right above your intergluteal cleft. This point is believed to trigger contractions and help relieve gynecological issues.<\/span><\/p>\nWhere can you learn acupressure?<\/strong><\/h6>\nAre you interested in trying acupressure for natural start labour and\/ or pain relief during labour?
