Hand Healing for Fever

Hand Healing Methods to Alleviate Fever

Following are several simple methods for easing the
discomfort of a fever:

  • Applying palms to the forehead. To help release
    energy in the forehead, have your child lie on his
    back, covered as usual. Place one hand lightly on
    his forehead. Close your eyes and breathe quietly
    and gently, keeping your hand lightly on his
    forehead. The sound of "Su" may be added when
    you are exhaling. Slowly remove your hand after
    15 to 20 minutes.

  • Applying palms to the front and back of the head.
    As a variation of the preceding method, place one
    hand on your child's forehead and the other
    directly opposite to it on the back of his head.
    Breathe as above and hold your hands lightly in
    this position for 15 to 20 minutes.

  • Applying palms to the intestines. Have your child
    lie on his back. Sit near him with a straight but
    relaxed posture. Breathe normally and quietly,
    and place one hand lightly on your child's
    abdomen so that the center of your palm covers
    the area just below his navel. Make sure that
    your child remains properly covered. Breathe as
    above and apply your palm for 15 to 20 minutes.

This method is effective for easing the discomfort of a
fever. Many fevers are related to blockage in the
intestines. Applying palms to the intestines can help
relieve stagnation or help excessive energy to
discharge.

Applying palms to the forehead and intestines.

  • Place one hand on your child's forehead, as in
    number one, and the other hand on the tower
    abdomen, as in number three. Breathe as
    described previously and continue for 15 to 20
    minutes.
  
  • The lower regions of the body coordinate with the
    upper regions. An imbalance in one region affects
    the other. Stagnation in the intestines, for
    example, often produces elevated temperatures
    in the forehead or, in some cases, headache and
    tension in the shoulders and neck. (For the same
    reason, menstrual problems also frequently cause
    headaches or emotional tension.) The palms can
    be applied to both regions in order to release
    stagnation and harmonize the flow of energy in
    both regions and the body as a whole. This
    method is especially helpful for fevers caused by
    intestinal disorders. Be careful to prevent your
    child from becoming chilled.
