Medical temples
Medical temples, also known as ataraxic or relaxation temples, are specific areas on the head, typically near the temples, that are associated with relaxation and stress relief. Applying gentle pressure or massage to these regions can help reduce tension, promote calmness, and alleviate headaches. They are sometimes targeted in therapies like acupressure or reflexology to support mental and emotional well-being. The temples contain important blood vessels and nerves, so care should be taken to avoid excessive force. Overall, stimulating these points can contribute to relaxation and stress reduction, complementing broader health practices.
