Main summary
Key takeaways
Key wellness strategies / self-care techniques
-
Try targeted ear massage (Tragus area)
- Locate your tragus (the small flap of skin on the front of your outer ear).
- Massage around nearby landmarks (as noted in the subtitles): the zygomatic bone and mandible areas, since they’re close to the ear canal.
- Goal: help relieve fluid buildup that may be lingering after an infection/cold/COVID/allergies.
-
Massage the neck to support the eustachian tube
- Put a finger behind your earlobe and feel for the indent in the neck.
- Identify the SCM (sternocleidomastoid) muscle region.
- Massage down this part of the neck to help the eustachian tube drain any fluid.
- Frequency: ~30 repetitions, 3 times per day.
