Acupressure is an ancient healing art that uses the fingers to press key points on the skin’s surface to stimulate the body’s natural healing abilities. Muscle tension is released when these points are pressed. Acupressure and Acupuncture are similar in that they use the same points, but acupuncture uses needles, while Acupressure uses the gentle but firm pressure of hands.
Before your treatment your therapist will ask you questions about the nature of your pain in order to determine the appropriate points to use. During your treatment you may experience a slight tingle, warmth or even moderate pain depending on how congested the point is. If a spot is too painful it is always appropriate to tell the therapist that you are uncomfortable. Following your treatment, you will experience a sense of release and relaxation.
Acupressure can be very effective for self-help and your therapist can show you where and how to activate them on your own.
