Neck Bailao is a strange acupoint outside the meridians, which has the function of soothing menstrual qi, channeling and relieving pain, and is good at treating strong neck pain. Bai, "Kangxi Dictionary": "Many", which means many, repeated; Labor is the righteousness of labor and labor. This acupuncture point can treat the problem of neck overwork, so it is called "neck Bailao".

When we work at the desk for a long time, the lack of neck activity is easy to degenerate the cervical spine in the long run, local muscle tension, and the meridian operation is blocked, thus inducing cervical pain. By rubbing the neck, you can dredge the local meridian qi and play a role in clearing the channels and relieving pain.

Acupoint method: sit upright and take acupoints. When we look down, we can feel the vertebrae with a high protrusion under the neck, and when we hold down and turn the neck with our hands, we can feel it also turning, which is the spinous process of the 7th cervical vertebra. Starting from the spinous process of the 7th cervical vertebra, the upper 2 inches (1 inch on the dorsal side of the thumb), and the 1 inch next to the posterior midline (the same as the front) is the cervical Bailao acupoint.

Massage method: Perform the kneading method, press one thumb and index finger on the left and right neck Bailao acupoints respectively, press and knead with moderate strength, and pinch with two fingers in the middle at the same time, pick up the local muscles and lift up, each time can be done for 10 to 15 minutes. If you have the help of others, you can also choose the method of moxibustion with moxa sticks, which stimulates the acupoint with gentle heat for about 20 minutes each time, which is also helpful for the relief of stiff neck.
