简短入门（不是治疗指示）
- With the opposite thumb, press the hollow between the bones for several to several dozen seconds, at a strength that is bearable and not harsh.

调查笔记（并不承诺效果）
C：初步、小规模或质量较低的研究，或结果不一。不宜过度解读
There is a Cochrane review of acupuncture for preventing headache, but evidence isolated to self-pressing of Hegu is limited. It is best understood as part of point stimulation in general.
