Understanding Your Acupressure Points

Acupressure or as it was once known in Ancient China, acupuncture is a way of maintaining a healthy balance of your inner energy which is referred to in the East as “qi”. Whilst an acupuncturist uses very slim needles which are inserted into various pressure points across the body, accupressure involves various pressure points being pressed by the practitioner.
The idea of acupressure is a simple one, and since many people in the East turn to this form of therapy as a way of keeping those aches and pains away, it’s no wonder that we in the West have started to adopt this completely natural way of feeling better on the inside. You may be confused about how this works. Well, practitioners know which pressure points in the body sit on energy channels (also known as a meridian).
Over time, these can become blocked resulting in the troubles explained below. By applying pressure, the channel is cleared making for a much happier you on the inside and out! Many people are looking towards acupressure as opposed to acupuncture simply because it’s less invasive and is a great alternative for people who have a fear of needles.
