Identify the weak points of a human body
Each has its own pressure points on the body that are used for healing and self defense. In traditional medicine, these pressure points are used to cure certain diseases and ailments of the body. In martial arts, on the other hand, these are used to gain an advantage over enemies for survival. Most of the time, they target these pressure points during their match to finish the fight and win. If you want to survive and conquer your enemies, it is imperative that you have knowledge about these specific pressure points because you can use them to immobilize your enemies.
In self-defense, you must have the opportunity to defeat or incapacitate your opponent to escape and ask for immediate help from the police authorities or anyone in the immediate vicinity. In addition to bringing portable self-defense tools and using improvised weapons, you can hit your opponent at these pressure points to defend yourself and immobilize him. The best way to do this is by targeting pressure points and using them to your advantage. Attacking them is brutal and can result in injury, trauma, and death.
Critical pressure points of the human body include:
o Head: The skull or top of the head is the weakest area of the head that can cause trauma and injury to the cranial cavity. It can also result in bleeding and loss of consciousness.
o Temple: this is the part of our skull where the large artery and nerves meet. When this part is attacked, it can cause a concussion.
o Eyes: it is an important part of the human body and a slight blow to the eyes can cause blurred vision and uncontrollable tearing. When a lot of force is imposed or foreign objects are placed in the eyes, it can result in permanent blindness and death.
o Nose: a strong blow to the nose can cause the thin bones to fracture, causing uncontrollable tearing of the eyes and extreme pain.
o Jaw: When you attack your attacker’s jaw, it can lead to dislocation of the jaw, fracture and paralysis because it is where the facial nerve is located and extreme pressure can lead to facial paralysis.
o Chin: similar to the jaw, a severe blow to the chin can cause loss of consciousness, paralysis and mild concussion. The jaw is a sensitive part of the body because it serves as a lever that transmits force to the brain and is also where the respiratory and cardiac mechanisms of our body are located.
o Throat: a powerful blow to the throat of your attacker can result in instant death due to damage to the windpipe.
o Back of the ears and the base of the skull: These are vital parts of the head because a moderate to severe blow to these areas can cause unconsciousness, concussion, bleeding, and death.
o Side of the neck: a strong blow to this part can cause loss of consciousness due to damage to the vagus nerve, carotid artery and jugular vein.
These are critical pressure points on a person’s body that can be used as self-defense when the need arises.
