According to the theory of Acupressure, the Bubbling Spring Point (K 1) can support recovery from fatigue and lethargy; it is considered a very important point on the kidney energy meridian for grounding, connecting with the earth, and rooting the energy downward.

Location: Below the ball of the foot in the central depression.
An effective way to work with the Bubbling Spring Point (K 1) is to place the thumb on the point and alternately press and release in a pumping motion for 30 seconds - 1 minute. Repeat this press and release pumping motion on the other foot.
A convenient way to work with this point is to sit on a firm but comfortable chair, or on the edge of your bed. Lift one foot and rest the ankle above the knee of the other leg so that you can see the bottom of your foot. Use the tip or pad of your thumb, whichever feels more comfortable, to press and release in a pumping motion (but not so that it causes excessive pain). If your thumb gets tired or sore, pause and rest for a moment, then continue. After 30 seconds - 1 minute, reverse the process by lifting the other foot and resting the ankle above the knee of the opposite leg.
Caution: This acupressure information is not a substitution for qualified medical advice. If you don't know what is causing pain or other symptoms, consult a medical doctor before you start treating yourself.
