Understanding General Neurological Imbalance

A broad term describing dysfunction in the nervous system, which may affect motor control, sensory perception, cognition, or autonomic regulation. It often reflects underlying conditions such as neurodegeneration, inflammation, or trauma.

Neurological imbalance can manifest in many ways, from movement difficulties to sensory changes and cognitive issues. It often points to deeper conditions that affect nerve signaling and brain function. While medical care is essential, acupressure may offer complementary support by calming the nervous system and improving energy flow.

Neurological Support Routine (Daily wellness practice, 10-15 minutes)

Treatment Protocol

  1. IMPORTANT: Use as complementary support alongside medical care for neurological conditions
  2. Practice in a quiet, comfortable environment at the same time daily for consistency
  3. Begin with 5 minutes of slow, deep breathing to activate the parasympathetic nervous system
  4. Gently massage GV-20 (top of head, crown) in small circles for 1-2 minutes to regulate brain function
  5. Apply steady pressure to GB-20 (base of skull, neck hollows) for 1-2 minutes each side to improve circulation
  6. Press KI-3 (inner ankle, behind ankle bone) for 1 minute each ankle to nourish kidney essence and nervous system
  7. For emotional balance: add HT-7 (wrist crease, pinky side) and SP-6 (inner ankle, 3 fingers up)
  8. For foundational support: include BL-23 (lower back, if someone can assist)
  9. End with gentle neck rolls and mindful movement to integrate the treatment

Supporting Your Recovery

Lifestyle

  • Routine & Rhythm: Maintain consistent sleep, meals, and movement to stabilize nervous system
  • Sensory Regulation: Use calming sounds, textures, and lighting to reduce overstimulation

Important

  • Track Symptoms: Note patterns in dizziness, numbness, or coordination issues
  • Medical Partnership: Neurological symptoms may require imaging or specialist evaluation
