Tui Na techniques for treating fever in young children include clearing Tianhe Shui, pinching and kneading Yiwu Feng, and clearing the lung meridian.
Clearing the Tianhe Shui: Using the index and middle fingers to push the child’s palm from the midpoint of the horizontal line of the wrist all the way to the Quzhe acupoint, this is a classic acupressure technique for treating fever in young children.
Pinching and kneading Yiwu Feng: Yiwu Feng overlaps with Yangchi point. Pressing and kneading Yiwu Feng with the belly of the thumb can stimulate the Sanjiao meridian qi and promote the normal functioning of the body’s qi function in treating fever.
Clearing the lung meridian: Using the thumb to push from the root of the ring finger to the tip of the finger in one direction can clear lung heat to treat fever in young children.
If your child develops fever, you should go to the pediatric department of the hospital in time to find out the cause and have it treated by a professional doctor. Do not blindly push on your own to avoid further development of high fever.
