8 Pressure Points For Kidneys

The kidneys are a vital part of the human body. Most people know that their main function is to remove waste products and excess fluid through urine, but they also produce and secrete a number of hormones. Therefore, when something is wrong with the kidneys, the problem will exhibit itself in more ways than just through the urine. Of course - if you feel there is a problem in even just one of the kidneys, it is extremely important to seek medical help. Until you do so, it’s handy to know that there are several ways to ease kidney-related pain by applying pressure on certain points in the body.

This list contains 8 anatomical points of pressure, which you can massage depending on the ailment you suffer from. It is recommended to repeat the exercise twice a day. 
 
Please note, this is NOT to be done instead of a doctor’s appointment but only to ease symptoms in the meantime. Pregnant women should AVOID massaging pressure points altogether.

If it happens more frequently than that, however, it might be best to consult your GP. Frequent urination could point to a UTI, kidney stones, or ovarian cysts.
