The Shenmen Point, also known as HT7, is an amazing and wonderful way to help manage stress, anxiety, and insomnia –\u00a0increasing health challenges in our fast-paced modern lives.<\/span>\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The Shenmen Point is a popular go-to for professionals who incorporate traditional Chinese medicine into their wellbeing services because it’s an effective tool that can be self-administered whenever needed. <\/span><\/p>\n

T<\/span>he name Shenmen, translates to “Spirit Gate” in English. Applying pressure to this point can open up this ‘gate’, helping to relieve blocked energy associated with our spirit, mind, and emotions.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Being a key player on the Heart meridian, the Shenmen Point, when stimulated, can nourish the blood and have a cooling, calming effect on our internal ‘fire’. This makes it an ideal method to address issues related to the mind, emotions, and heart such as stress, anxiety, insomnia, and even palpitations.<\/strong><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

You might wonder, how scientifically substantiated is this? In a clinical study conducted in 2019[1], Shenmen was found to significantly aid in relieving symptoms of insomnia, psychological stress, agitation, and even withdrawal symptoms from substances like alcohol and nicotine.<\/p>\n

This special point is found in two locations on our bodies – one is on the ear, and the other, more accessible one is near our wrist crease along the heart meridian. <\/span>I personally prefer the wrist point because my body seams to prefer this, but it’s more important to use the point that feels most comfortable for you.<\/span><\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Locating this point is simple – it’s at the wrist crease, on the radial side of the flexor carpi ulnaris tendon, nestled between the ulna and the pisiform bones.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here’s a quick tip for those of us who spend a lot of time working with a computer mouse: as Shenmen is conveniently located near the wrist crease, using a massage tool or object placed under your wrist can help apply pressure to the point, effectively performing self-acupressure on this HT7 point while you’re busy at work.<\/span><\/p>\n

\u00a0<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Here are some of the benefits and ways to self-massage this wonderful point:<\/span><\/h6>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

    \n
  1. \n
      <\/ol>\n<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

      Stress\/Anxiety\/Panic<\/strong>: Apply mild pressure to the Shenmen Point for 15-30 seconds, alternating between your left and right hand for a total of 3-5 minutes. Repeat this a few times per day as needed or regularly.<\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      Insomnia<\/strong>: Similar to the first point, applying mild pressure for 15-30 seconds, alternating hands for up to 3-5 minutes can assist in better sleep. You can practice this throughout the day or right before bedtime.<\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      Motion sickness<\/strong>: This point can also help with symptoms of motion sickness such as nausea and vertigo. Applying pressure via thumb or fingernail on this point can offer relief.<\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      Memory loss\/Forgetfulness<\/strong>: As Shenmen can help calm your mind, it can also clear the mind and help with forgetfulness. Regular massages of the Shenmen point daily can help keep your memory sharp.<\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      Chest tightness\/Palpitations\/Gastroesophageal reflux (GERD)<\/strong>: Given Shenmen’s connection to the heart meridian and our chest\/heart area, it’s an excellent point to help with issues like chest tightness, palpitations, and GERD.<\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      <\/p>\n

      \u00a0<\/p>\n

      There are a plethora of tools available to support you on your wellbeing journey and sometimes it’s helpful to expand your mind and be open to new approaches.<\/p>\n

      Always seek professional guidance if you’re unsure about using these practices or if you’re dealing with persistent stress, anxiety, or other health concerns.<\/p>\n
