Location acupuncture point Ex A01-A12
Location:
The acupuncture points we are looking for are located in the area of the index finger on the side facing the thumb. More precisely, on the metacarpal bone of the index finger. Here the points are lined up like on a string of pearls from the front to the back end of the bone.
These pain points can be used in addition to another acupressure program and thus increase the effect even more. For example, in the case of digestive problems, one can perform a given acupressure program and additionally use points A06, A07 and A08. In this way, one can increase the effect even more, if this is necessary.
The acupuncture points can also be used preventively by acupressing this zone regularly, 3 times a week. This is done by applying pressure with the AkuPen on each point for about 5 seconds.

A01: discomfort in the head, eyes, ears, mouth and nose
