About

Acupressure is a non-invasive form of bodywork that applies physical pressure to specific acupoints on the body using fingers, thumbs, or specialized tools. Based on the same principles as acupuncture, acupressure stimulates the flow of qi along meridian pathways to relieve tension, promote healing, and restore balance.

Acupressure can be self-administered or performed by a practitioner and is often recommended as a complementary self-care practice.

Benefits

Acupressure effectively relieves nausea (including motion sickness, morning sickness, and chemotherapy-induced nausea), reduces headaches and migraines, relieves muscle tension and pain, reduces stress and anxiety, improves sleep, and enhances circulation. It is a safe, accessible self-care tool suitable for all ages.
