Question:
Can nausea be cured by pressing a spot on your arm?
Answer:
Yes. Mild nausea may be relieved by acupressure. Sometimes nausea may improve by pressing down hard with a thumb or finger (for a minute or two) on the groove between the two large tendons (two inches up from, and on the inside of, your wrist) that run from the base of the palm up to the elbow.
