Autumn is a season filled with delicious ingredients, and it's easy to overeat. Have you ever felt unwell after a meal, with a heavy stomach, a fuzzy head, or difficulty concentrating on work?


In fact, overeating can affect not only the stomach and intestines, but the whole body as well, causing headaches, eye strain, stiff shoulders, etc. So, from the perspective of an acupuncturist, I will introduce acupressure points that can reset you after overeating , as well as recommended head spa and head massages .


Why does overeating affect your mind and body?

When the stomach and intestines become fatigued, the balance of the autonomic nervous system becomes easily disturbed.

  • Indigestion or stomach upset

  • Head heaviness due to poor blood flow

  • This can have various effects on the entire body, such as causing eye strain and worsening shoulder stiffness.

Especially for modern people who spend a lot of time at a desk or on their smartphones, the double whammy of overeating and tired eyes can cause prolonged discomfort. In such cases, acupressure and head massage can be helpful.


3 recommended acupressure points to prevent overeating

① Zui

This pressure point is located at the hairline near the temples. It promotes blood flow to the head and relieves headaches and eye strain. It is also closely related to the stomach and intestines, and pressing it may cause your stomach to rumble. This is a natural reaction, so there's no need to worry.

② Zhongwan

This pressure point is located between the solar plexus and the navel. It regulates the function of the stomach and relieves stomach upset and discomfort after overeating. It is also recommended for those on a diet.

③ Naikan

This pressure point is located on the inside of the wrist. It helps prevent overeating due to stress or irritability, and also relieves nausea and heartburn. It's also great for those who experience arm fatigue from working on a computer or using their smartphone.


Acupressure + head massage for a synergistic effect

Self-pressure is easy, but for those looking for a deeper reset, we recommend a head spa or head acupuncture massage .

  • Improve blood flow by gently massaging the scalp and temples

  • Regulates the autonomic nervous system and supports the digestive system

  • Also relieves eye strain and stiff shoulders

In particular, our salon offers a unique head care program that combines acupuncture and massage by nationally certified therapists, allowing you to experience a complete reset of not only your gastrointestinal fatigue but also your entire mind and body.


summary

  • Autumn is a time of year when appetites are high and overeating can easily lead to illness.

  • Self-care is possible with the acupressure points "Tou Wei", "Zhong Wan" and "Nei Guan"

  • It is even more effective when combined with a head spa or head massage.

If you're feeling sluggish or dizzy after eating too much, try incorporating professional head care into your self-care routine. With a refreshed and toned head, you'll be able to enjoy delicious autumn meals even more.
