Recently, I have heard clients say "I have had this pain for quite awhile and I can't seem to figure out what is causing it". With Acupressure, one doesn't need to put a name to the issue, and the problem can be addressed through a holistic approach in which the body can be helped to heal itself.
Listening to the body is a key to good health. Many times we push aside aches and pains as normal, but many times these pains are our body's way of telling us that our body needs tending.
Acupressure has been around for thousands of years. Acupressure, like Acupuncture is an ancient healing art that uses finger pressure rather than needles to stimulate key points on the body to help the body's natural self curative abilities. Acupressure is performed fully clothed and can have varying styles, depending on the preference of the client and their needs. Some portions of acupressure can feel like gentle to deep tissue massage, while other parts of the session involve holding points to release blockages at the point as well as between points creating an increase in energy and blood flow, thus allowing the body to heal naturally.
