The
Power & Sensitivity of the Human Hand:
Acupressure is an ancient healing art that balances the body and maintains
good health by promoting circulation of the blood and releasing
tension. Unlike acupuncture, acupressure doesn't employ needles, but
instead pressure is administered by fingers (hands) to stimulate
"potent" (key) points on the surface of the skin.
Stimulation of these potent points with pressure causes chemicals called endorphins
in the body to be released. Endorphins are chemicals that
relieve pain. Acupressure is a drug-free alternative to combating pain
and discomfort.
Promotes
Wellness:
Acupressure therapy builds resistance to disease. Keeping the body
pain free and reducing stress allows the body to heal faster and stay
healthy.
