The Shiatsu Foot Massage



I realized now. The FEET are a better object for self-massage than the hands. When you're at a foot, you can work on it with 2 hands, not just with 1  hand when you're at your own.

 
I discovered a nice foot massage now.

Start with KD1 (springing source/gushing spring 涌泉 >good against insomnia) 

Then go around the outer edge with your other thumb (go deep!) 

Then at your knuckles 

Then to the "Dragon Source"/"Blazing Valley" 然谷 (KD2). 

This Magic end point clears all "excesses", especially excessive heat (that's why it's also called "the point of outflow"). The Idea of "Heat" can also manifest psychosomatically as sore throat, irritability, anger, uneasiness, instability, sexual imbalance, impotence or sexual overdrive, fear, irregular menstruation.
