From Seated II — Face, Jaw, Ear, Sinus

Brodmann's Area 17 & 18 Ghisai

Rub — ghisai — the back part of the head in such a way that the muscles under the skin relax, but no pulling comes in the hair. This is excellent for troubles of the brain, the eyes and speech. (Figure 19.2)

According to function, the brain has been divided into more than forty regions, and each area has a fixed number; these are called Brodmann's area No. 1, 2, 3 and so on. Among these, behind the head, just above the neck, there are two parts related to vision. Of these, the inner circle is Brodmann's area 17, and the circle outside it is Brodmann's area 18. These two areas together make the brain recognise what the eye is seeing.

Method. With the edge of your thumb, rub these two areas so that the skin underneath is stimulated, but no damage comes to the hair.

Patient's positionSeated Seated
Where the hands are placedThe edge of the thumb on the back part of the head, over the inner circle (area 17) and the circle outside it (area 18)
Duration and repetitionsRub until the muscles under the skin relax; no count is given — the limit is that no pulling comes in the hair and no damage comes to the hair
What it is forTroubles of the brain, the eyes and speech

The limit is the instruction. This point is bounded not by a number but by a condition, which is why the technique uses the edge of the thumb: an edge slides on the scalp and carries the skin with it, a pad presses hair into scalp, a tip catches it. With thick or oiled hair, part it or work through a thin dry cloth.

What lies beneath. The two ringed patches are real and correctly placed — but they are inside the skull, behind skin, bone and the coverings of the brain. No rubbing reaches them. What the thumb does reach is a scalp crossed by three nerves from the top of the neck, which arrive in the cord where the nerves of the face and of the neck land on the same cells — the convergence taught with Medulla in Seated I — Brain, Medulla, Neck.
