What are the massage techniques for treating children's cough?

Patient's question:

The child has been with me recently, and I don't want to take him to drink medicine or sleep, thinking that it will only do more harm to his body. I heard that acupuncture treatment for cough is very popular for children now. I would like to consult about acupuncture methods for treating children's cough.

Doctor's answer:

The main techniques of pediatric acupuncture treatment include the following:
Clear Lung: From the fine groove at the tip of the ring finger to the root of the finger, push upward to clear the lung.
Clear Stomach: The stomach meridian is located on the palm of the thumb. Directly push from the base of the thumb to the tip.
Clear Bladder: Along the inner palm, with the palm as the center, draw a circle at the 2/3 horizontal line between the middle finger and the ring finger, and at the 1/3 intersection of the outer third line. Push in a clockwise direction around this circle.
