Acupressure Acupuncture

What Is Acupressure?

Used for thousands of years in China, acupressure is often thought of as simply acupuncture without the needles. Acupressure practitioners use their fingers, palms, elbows, feet, or special devices to apply pressure to acupoints on the body’s meridians. Sometimes, acupressure also involves stretching or acupressure massage, as well as other methods. Acupressure is a great alternative to acupuncture for those who are reluctant to try needles.
