Dr. Li je povedala: "Drgnjenje stopal eno ob drugo je oblika sprostitve in lajšanja stresa. Lahko pomaga zmanjšati napetost, izboljšati krvni obtok in zagotoviti občutek udobja in dobrega počutja."

Pri težavah s spanjem pa si lahko pomagate tudi s stimulacijo dveh točk na stopalih. Prva se nahaja med prvim in drugim prstom na vrhu stopala, druga pa je na blazinici stopala med drugim in tretjim prstom. To sta tako imenovani akupunkturni točki in ko ju stimulirate, naj bi poslali kemikalije v vaše možgane in mišice ter pomirili morebitno bolečino.

@anew.acu Here’s a fun sleep hack with your feet! ???? ???????? Kidney 1 (KD1) and Liver 3 (LV3) are two amazing point combinations commonly used in acupuncture treatments, but you can have it right here at home with acupressure and experience the effectiveness of Chinese medicine. THE DATING PROFILES: ???? Kidney 1 (aka “Yongquan” or Gushing Spring) is a great foot point for someone who’s “in their thoughts”; it can also treat night sweats, heart palpitations (racing sensation), and hot flashes (for those in menopause). ???? Liver 3 (aka “Tai Chong” or Great Rushing) is a cooling foot point for the stressed out ones, but more importantly, it’s also great at relieving menstrual cramps and suppressed anger. It can even help with dizziness in some cases. You can do this daily right before bedtime ???? Do a few rounds or just one. Treat yourself well ???? No medical advice, just health tips ♥️ Safe for little ones???????? Avoid LV3 while expecting, but safe to do KD1???????? #insomnia #sleeptip #sleephygiene #stressrelief #painrelief #acupressure #chinesemedicine #depression #anxiety #healthtips #lifehack ♬ Bounce - Otile Brown x Lexsil

Če se ste ambiciozni, pravi dr. Li, lahko celo istočasno stimulirate obe točki. Dodala je: "Ti točki se pogosto uporabljata pri akupunkturnih terapijah, vendar ju lahko uporabite kar doma s pomočjo akupresure in doživite učinkovitost kitajske medicine."
