Discovering Acupressure: From Ancient Roots to Modern Nausea Relief

November 12th, 2025 | Nausea

The Ancient Origins

The practice of acupressure, a healing art rooted in the same traditions as acupuncture, can be traced back more than a thousand years in Chinese medicine. According to historical accounts, early texts such as the Huangdi Neijing (Yellow Emperor’s Classic) mention the flow of qi (vital energy) along defined meridians, and the stimulation of specific body points to restore balance. Over time the technique evolved into what we now recognize as acupressure—applying firm pressure (rather than needles) at key points to influence health.
From those ancient healings to contemporary wellness routines, acupressure has crossed borders and centuries to become a mainstream go-to for issues like nausea, motion sickness, and postoperative discomfort.

How It Works: Pressure Point P6 & Nausea Relief

One of the key acupressure points for nausea is known as the “P6” point (also called Nei Guan). You’ll find it on the inner forearm, roughly three finger-widths below the wrist crease, between two tendons.

In essence: applying steady pressure at P6 probably interacts with nerve pathways and possibly autonomic regulation to lessen the feeling of nausea. While not a miracle cure every time, it’s a gentle, low-risk option many find useful.
