Hello! I'm Lee Se-rin, a doctor at Tongin Korean Medicine Clinic. 🧑🏻⚕️

We've been sharing special 'acupressure points‘ for Family Month in May with the EEUTs.

Now, I would like to introduce the 🔥Fire-Grade Acupressure Points for BEST Sons and Daughters — the kind that will make your parents love you even more! (It’s great for their health… though it might be painful a little 😅)

Let’s explore some head-to-toe acupressure points — so get your thumbs ready and follow along!

1. Jeong-myeong [Jingming] - Worried about your parents' eye health?

The Jeong-myeong point, located at the inner corner of the eye, uses the Chinese characters for 'eye pupil (睛)' and 'bright (明)'. It's a mysterious acupoint that brightens the eyes.

When pressing this area, relaxing your thumb and gently massage it is good. 😊

Since the skin around the eyes is so thin, and the fat and muscle layers are also not thick, gently massage in circles with a relaxed thumb!

This acupoint helps blood circulation around the eyes and relaxes tired eye muscles.

The Jeong-myeong point is also effective for dry eyes and headaches. Don't miss it!

💡Tip: It's good to place a warm, wet towel on your parents' eyes before massaging. When massaging, do it slowly and gently.
