Imagine a simple technique that can melt away stress and bring you back to a state of peaceful focus. That's the power of acupressure, and with The Chill Pill®, it's easier than ever to tap into this ancient practice. In this 3-part series, we'll explore how to use The Chill Pill® with key acupressure points for anxiety to unlock a deeper sense of calm through Pressure Point Therapy Technology (PPTT). First up: the Yintang point.
We recently sat down with acupuncture expert Revital Lev Ari to learn about her simple yet powerful 3-point acupressure sequence you can use with The Chill Pill®.
Acupressure is a time-tested technique that involves applying gentle pressure to specific acupressure points for anxiety on the body to promote healing and balance. And when you combine it with The Chill Pill®'s electrotherapy, the results can be even more profound. We call this Pressure Point Therapy Technology (PPTT). It's a unique combination of acupressure and gentle electrical stimulation from The Chill Pill® that helps dissolve stress and tension.
Yintang: The Third Eye Point
One of the most effective acupressure points for anxiety is called Yintang. Located right between your eyebrows, it's sometimes referred to as the "Third Eye." This ancient point is believed to connect you to your higher self, promoting clarity, focus, and relaxation.
The Yintang point is known for its ability to clear the mind and balance thinking.
- Location: Between your eyebrows
- Benefits: Helps quiet racing thoughts, promote mental clarity, relieve headaches, improve sleep, and reduce anxiety.
- Duration: Brief stimulation of 1-2 minutes
- Note: This point is particularly sensitive, so use gentle pressure initially
How to Use Yintang with The Chill Pill®
- Find Your Spot: Place The Chill Pill® device gently on your forehead, right between your eyebrows.
- Relax and Breathe: Close your eyes and take slow, deep breaths.
- Hold and Soothe: Hold the device in place for 1-2 minutes, allowing the gentle electrical pulses of Pressure Point Therapy Technology (PPTT) to work their magic alongside the acupressure stimulation.
- Rest and Relax: After stimulating Yintang, move on to holding The Chill Pill® device in your palm over the PC8 point for 15-20 minutes.
By regularly stimulating Yintang with The Chill Pill®, you can experience:
- Reduced stress and anxiety
- Improved focus and concentration
- Better sleep quality
- Alleviated headaches and migraines
Acupuncturist Revital Lev Ari’s Insights: "Use lightly and build it up over time. Sensitive: only use for a short time."
How Does The Chill Pill® Work?
The Chill Pill® is a small, handheld device that uses gentle electrical pulses to stimulate acupressure points. These pulses mimic the sensation of acupressure, helping to:
- Promote relaxation: The gentle stimulation helps to calm the nervous system and reduce stress.
- Release endorphins: These natural mood boosters can help to alleviate pain and improve your sense of well-being.
- Improve energy flow: By stimulating specific points, The Chill Pill® can help to unblock stagnant energy and promote balance in the body.
Chill Pill® vs. Chill Pill™ Plus: What's the Difference?
The Chill Pill® comes in two versions: The Chill Pill® and the Chill Pill™ Plus. Both use PPTT, but the Chill Pill™ Plus adds soothing heat therapy to further enhance relaxation. It's like having a mini hot stone massage in the palm of your hand! Ahh.
