“Pay attention. Pay attention to the points I’m pressing. I
need you to do this for me when I’m
done. Are you hearing me?”
“Yeah, yeah, yeah.” He could hear her, nagging at him, while
his head fucking exploded. Like
drilling holes in the back of his neck with her fingers was
going to . . .
The pain eased from hot, stabbing knives to a dull misery.
And when she took his hand, pressing,
pressing on the web between his thumb and forefinger,
the
misery downshifted to annoying ache.
The Pagan Stone

Experiencing the pain and discomfort of a headache is
incredibly common. If you’re looking for a more natural way to treat your
headache, you may want to think about acupressure and pressure points.
Pressure points are parts of the body believed to be extra sensitive, able to stimulate relief in the body. Practitioners of reflexology, a discipline of Chinese medicine, believe that touching pressure points in a certain way can:
- improve your health
- ease pain
- restore balance in the body
