Then, with a straight thumb, we insert a straight pressure on the point of the solar system of each foot, which extends along the second and third fingers at the one third of the upper and middle of the foot of the foot, in the position where the foot is made when the foot is flexed. This was done for 10 minutes for each leg (4 minutes pressure and 2 minutes rest and again for 4 minutes of pressure) (routinely and with pressures of 3-4 kg, weekly 3 sessions for 4 weeks).
