There are many reasons why sleep remains elusive for humans. In fact, it has become a fairly common problem worldwide, which can have many causes.
Interestingly, while there are many scams that promise to give you a good night's sleep, a TikTok video has gone viral recently, which claims that a little rubbing exercise can make a person sleep like a child at night.
According to reports, a TikTok video by user @youngeryoudoc has claimed that if you rub the inside of your wrist in a circular motion for a few minutes, you will get out in no time. The secret lies in the fact that you are basically putting pressure on a specific area of the body, which can relieve stress and help you get the best sleep of your life.
Younger You Doc allegedly wrote in TikTok comments: "The wrist stain is an acupressure spot that has appeared in several studies." Many users, too, claimed that hacking worked wonders for them.
While it is true that there are acupressure points on the body, how effective is this strategy in the long run and should it rely solely on it for sleep? According to Dr Praveen Gupta, principal and chief executive, Department of Neurology, Fortis Memorial Research Institute, Gurugram, "immediate results do not come to life and medicine."
"There are so many different causes of insomnia and you can not have a cure for it. There are numerous points [on the body] from the neck and skull, to the hands and chest, which people have designed as separate sleeping points based on Chinese medicine. But, none of these points have the ability to affect brain function in such a way that it can instantly promote or maintain sleep. "In a strange patient, it may be helpful, but it is unlikely to become a large-scale treatment for sleep disorders," the doctor told indianexpress.com.
He added that there are many sleeping points, not just the wrist. And while they have been helping people for a while, the effect is then consumed. "The logic behind sleep induction is that all of these points are connected to the nerves and spinal cord, and then to the brain. The science of acupressure and acupuncture works on point suppression to cause a downstream signal change in the body. But, not everyone knows how to do this, and for most people it is not translated very well; "It does not bring lasting results," he concluded.
