Which part to massage for colitis?
Firstly, one can massage certain areas of the abdomen, such as Zhongwan, Tianshu, and Liangmen, as well as the Guanyuan point in the lower abdomen. The massage should progress from gentle to firm, using the small fish edge for rolling techniques or the large fish edge for pressing techniques, and finally pinpoint massage on certain abdominal acupoints.
The second area for massage is the distal extremities, such as the legs where you can massage points like Zusanli, Shangjuxu, Xiajuxu, Sanyinjiao, and Yinlingquan, and in the hands at points like Sanli and Neiguan, to alleviate symptoms of colitis. Of course, if the massage is performed by another person, back acupoints such as Weishu, Dachangshu, and Sanjiaoshu can also be massaged to effectively relieve symptoms of colitis.
