Acupressure

Acupressure is based on Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) just like Acupuncture.  Acupuncture uses needles and Acupressure uses fingertip pressure to stimulate Acupoints on energy pathways called meridians to balance Qi (life force energy) in the body.  According to TCM, when yin and yang in the body are balanced, Qi and blood flow smoothly in the meridians.  In this balanced state, the body stays healthy.  When imbalances occur due to stress, unhealthy diet, not enough exercise and various other reasons, it leads to illness and emotional issues.  Acupuncture and Acupressure are both used to balance Qi to heal the body, the mind and the spirit to achieve optimal health.
