A Professional Massage Therapist’s Guide to Treating Rhinitis with Foot Reflexology Grounded in the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) theory that "Earth Generates Metal," this guide details the precise location and manipulation techniques for the nasal reflex zone on the big toe. By following a four-step protocol—Opening Detox Pathways, Targeting the Nasal Reflex Zone, Enhancing Lymphatic Drainage, and Invigorating the Spleen to Fortify the Constitution—and dedicating 15 minutes daily to foot massage combined with warm soaks and essential oils, you can improve chronic rhinitis at its source and regain the freedom to breathe.

This introduces the location and massage method of the Yingxiang acupoint (LI20), which can effectively relieve problems such as nasal congestion and allergies, promote facial blood circulation, and enhance clear breathing and overall health.
