Acupressure, also known as TuiNa Massage, has been a cornerstone of Chinese healing practices for thousands of years. This technique shares the same foundational principles as acupuncture, aiming to foster relaxation, wellness, and disease treatment. Often described as acupuncture without needles, acupressure involves applying pressure to specific points on the body to balance energy flow.
By targeting various pressure points, acupressure can facilitate different types of healing processes. This non-invasive treatment method is effective in addressing a range of health concerns, offering a gentle yet powerful approach to improving overall well-being.
- Insomnia
- Stress management
- Headache
- Menstrual cramps
- Motion sickness
- Muscle tension and pain
- Nausea and vomiting during pregnancy and morning sickness
- Nausea and vomiting after surgery or chemotherapy
Acupressure practitioners utilize various techniques, employing their fingers, palms, elbows, feet, or specialized devices to exert pressure on acupoints along the body’s meridians. In addition to pressure application, acupressure sessions may include stretching or acupressure massage, among other techniques.
During an acupressure treatment, clients remain fully clothed and relax on a comfortable massage table. The practitioner skillfully applies gentle pressure to specific acupressure points on the body. Each session typically lasts about one hour, and multiple sessions may be recommended to achieve optimal results.
