Hand Healing for Earaches
Hand Healing Methods to Alleviate Earaches
If your child suffers from earaches, the following simple techniques can help relieve pain and loosen stagnated mucus in the middle ear:
Applying the palms to the affected ear. To comfort your child's affected ear, place one hand gently over it so that the center of your palm covers the opening of the ear. Breathe quietly and gently. The sound of "Su" may be added when you are exhaling. Remove your hand after 15 to 20 minutes.
Applying palms to both ears. This method may be used instead of the preceding one. Simply place your palms over both ears so that the center of the palm covers the ear opening. Breathe and continue as in number one.
Applying palms to the kidneys. Relieving stagnation or tightness in the kidneys can often be helpful in easing discomfort in the inner ear. To comfort the kidneys, place one hand gently across the child's back in the kidney region. Breathe and continue as in number one.
Applying palms to the ears and kidneys. The ears can be comforted at the same time that you relieve stagnation in the kidneys. Place one hand gently over your child's ear as described above. Place your other hand on the same side of your child's back in the kidney region. (When comforting the right ear, apply your hand to your child's right kidney; when comforting the left ear, apply it to the left kidney.) Breathe and continue as in number one.
