Acupressure is a way of accessing and releasing blocked or congested energy centers in the body. These energy centers or Acupoints lie on energy pathways called Meridians. When acupoints or meridians become blocked or congested you experience pain or discomfort on a physical level. On an emotional level you may become frustrated or irritable, and on a spirit (energetic) level you may experience a sense of feeling ungrounded, vulnerable, and have difficulty knowing your purpose in life.
Acupressure follows the same principles of acupuncture. Certain points on specific meridians are selected during the acupressure session.
Pressing a combination of points will cause certain effects, which is based on the diagnosis made during the first visit to the clinic.
Each point on a specific meridian has a specific function, and acupressure prescription means
selection of a group of points to treat a condition or disease, based on the principles of Traditional
Chinese Medicine. We call that TCM acupressure.
