"What is Acupressure?"

                                                                 Acupressure is an age-old                                                                  Chinese technique. It involves the                                                                  use of pressure of the fingers on a                                                                  particular point on the body.                                                                  Acupressure uses the same                                                                  principle as acupuncture, but in                                                                  acupuncture needles are used                                                                  while in acupressure fingers are                                                                  used to release the blocked                                                                  energy centers. Acupressure                                                                  activates the body's own energy to                                                                  fight against the body's ailments.

                                                                 While pressure is put in the body                                                                  it helps in removing the blocks                                                                  and creates energy. Acupressure is almost like traditional massage, but specific points are massaged in a circular motion. The massage is done through rubbing, vibration etc for 5-10 minutes. Acupressure is a very powerful technique and most of the ailments are relieved by it. Acupressure promotes calmness and relaxes the body. Don’t apply too much pressure during treatment.

The healing process through Acupressure is quite quick and you can feel the energy flow in a matter of few minutes.
