How to massage to relieve the symptoms of a child’s adenoid hypertrophy?

Answer

Adenoid hypertrophy massage techniques include:

  1. Use the palm of your hands to gently rub both sides of the nostrils while guiding the child to breathe through their nose.
  2. Starting from the Yintang point, push down along both sides of the nose groove for a total of 72 times.
  3. Massage the Yintang, Taiyang, and Yingxiang points for 2 minutes each.
  4. Rub the tonsil area under the neck for 2 minutes. Next, have the child lie on their stomach.
  5. Use the index, middle, and ring fingers to stroke and press down along the spine from top to bottom 40-50 times.
  6. After the massage, drink a cup of warm water.
  7. If the child snores at night, try rubbing the tonsil area under the neck with your hand to see if it improves breathing.
