is an ancient practice in which pressure is applied to certain places on the body.<br><br>Studies have shown that acupressure may help reduce ocular pressure headaches.<br><br>While it is not a cure-all, some people get relief from eye pressure headaches by stimulating certain pressure points.\u00a0<br><br>Consider the following acupressure points:<br><br><strong>Ying Yang point: <\/strong>This acupressure point can be found between your brows.\u00a0<br><br>Hold it with your thumb for a minute while taking deep breaths.<br><br><strong>Zan Zhu: <\/strong>It is placed at the innermost point of your brows.\u00a0<br><br>Gently push for about a minute at the root of the inner border of your brows<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>Yingxiang: <\/strong>The Yingxiang pressure point is located on both sides of the nostrils.&nbsp;<br><br>When stimulated, it may help increase eye pressure headaches by relieving sinus congestion and promoting relaxation.<br><br><strong>Zan zhu point: <\/strong>It is placed at the innermost point of your brows.&nbsp;<br><br>Applying pressure to this spot may help with headaches caused by eye pressure.<br><br>It&#8217;s important to note that while some individuals find relief through pressure point stimulation, it may not work for everyone.<br><br>If you&#8217;re experiencing persistent or severe eye pressure headaches, it is advisable to
