Acupressure uses pressure on activation points to stimulate circulation
in the body. Illnesses are looked at, as being blockages to circulation, and with the correct choice of points these stagnations,
or blockages can be cleared. Developed in Asia
over 5,000 years ago, acupressure is an ancient healing therapy that utilizes fingers to depress key locations on the skin's
surface to prompt healing within the body. Similar to acupuncture, acupressure uses the same reference points on the body
that release muscular stress; thus encouraging better blood circulation. Acupressure is very beneficial as it can relieve
pain and bring the body back into harmonious balance.
Acupressure's healing ability promotes stress reduction, improves
circulation, relaxes the body and strengthens the immune system. Acupressure can effectively be used to alleviate acute and
chronic conditions such as arthritis, headaches, spinal-muscular pain, and sinus complications. Also a preventative therapy,
acupressure is good for fatigue as well. Overall, acupressure is an excellent healing therapy for whole well-being of mind,
body and spirit.
