Try massaging with pressure in your stomach area from 3 to 7 minutes and see if you feel some relief. Herbs can also be helpful.
No general points each case is a different origin.
There are many points on the body. It depends on what is going on, and you might need some nutritional counseling. I encourage you to book a session with your practitioner of choice to get help with relief.
Gas is most likely due to ingesting a food or beverage that did not sit well with the stomach, so it may be helpful to take note of what you ate or drank before the gas.
Colon 4 located between the thumb and index finger in the web.
YES, THERE ARE MANY.
There is no individual pressure point to relieve shoulder pain. Acupuncture is a holistic medicine that looks at the whole body, and any individual issue in relation to the whole picture. The pressure points unique to your gas would be different than those for someone else - it would take an appointment with a provider to diagnose you specifically and give you a plan.
There are many factors that cause gas, but in general, You can google for those points, LI4, ST42, SP3~4, Hand Acupuncture (Palm middle), Forearm (middle in the anterior(palm) side). Please make sure you eat on time so that your stomach expects the food is coming to digest. Don't drink water during the meal so that you don't dilute the stomach acid. Gas is from the intestine. You need to have a healthy gut. Maybe good to have digestive enzymes. If your abdomen is cold, make warm on the abdomen so that you can get better metabolism. I hope it helps you to relieve gas.
Yes
Good afternoon,

The answer is yes. The cause of gas is more important, you need to talk to your acupuncturist regarding the point to relieve gas and the cause of gas.

Hello,

Yes, please look up ST 36 acupuncture point for reference on google.
No. Food enzymes can decrease or eliminate gas, but there aren't points for it.
Rubbing your abdomen in clockwise or using a heating pad on the abdomen will help.
Yes, there are pressure point to relieve gas. I recomend you use foam roller to roll on stomach region and whole back several times every day.
no
Yes there is.
There is a point just below the knee on the lateral side of the tibia. Actually, if you stay close to the tibia about 1 inch away and massage the whole line down your leg, that would be helpful.
There are several that can be used but your practitioner must first learn what is causing the gas before they can provide you with the most effective point.
Yes, but not as you understand there being one magical point that always works for every single person. Best to consult a professional who understands your system specifically as we are all individuals.
Above the belly button 1 inch, 2 inches,, 3 inches, 4 inches are those pressure points can relieve gas.
I'm sure there probably is. There are lots of reasons why someone might experience gas. Some of these reasons are related to dietary choices and some might be related to internal organ imbalances. Without seeing and diagnosing a patient, it's hard to provide a one-size-fits-all home based solution.
