Acupressure, like acupuncture, is based on the traditional Chinese medicine which poists that a vital energy or qi flows through pathways (known as meridians) in the body. It is the stimulation of these acu- points in the meridian network that helps to clear blockages in these meridians.

Acupressure can be effective in helping relieve headaches, eyestrain, sinus problems, neck pain, backaches, arthritis, muscle aches, and tension due to stress, ulcer pain, menstrual cramps, lower back aches, constipation, and indigestion, anxiety, insomnia.

There are also great advantages to using acupressure as a way to balance the body and maintain good health. The healing touch of acupressure reduces tension, increases circulation, and enables the body to relax deeply. By relieving stress, acupressure strengthens resistance to disease and promotes wellness.

Acupressure sessions last between 10-15min with some clients feeling better after a single session and others needing to return for a series of appointments.

Even though both the Acupressure and Acupuncture are an alternative medical technique, both of them are a key component of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) and also both the method focus on the concept of life energy, they do differ in the way of their application.
– In Acupuncture, the thin metal needles are used to simulate the acupoints while in acupressure a firm pressure to massage the acupoints is performed.
– Problems like bleeding, soreness, bruising at the site of needle insertion, dizziness, fainting, convulsions, infections, Hepatitis-B, nerve damage and fear of needles , which are common in acupuncture is not there is acupressure.
