 Acupuncture is the practice of using needles to pinpoint “acupuncture points” (also known as “acupressure points” or “acupoints”) for the purpose of healing ailments in the body. Abnormalities are a result of energetic imbalances in the many energy channels that flow throughout the body. Needles stimulate different acupoints in each of these channels to remove these imbalances or blockages. Acupuncture has recently grown in popularity as an alternative holistic treatment in Western society. However, there is more and more growing evidence that acupuncture is a legitimate form of treatment for a variety of issues, including hiccups. 

In traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) theory, it is believed that hiccups are due to the reversed flow of qi in the chest and diaphragm. Treatment of hiccups involves bringing that flow of qi back to its normal state using acupressure points for hiccups. In one study from 2010, it was found that treating acupressure points for hiccups significantly improved persistent hiccups in cancer patients. Although it is helpful, it doesn’t mean that acupuncture cures persistent hiccups. The TCM system from which acupuncture is derived believes that persistent hiccups could be a symptom of another underlying problem, so it is best to consult a professional for advice. 

Here I would like to share 5 points of acupuncture (reflexology) to treat hiccups:

1. Acupoint: TE-17 (Other Names: Triple Energizer-17/Yi Feng/Wind Screen)
