Acupressure
Acupressure is an ancient Chinese healing method that involves applying pressure to certain meridian points on the body to relieve pain. In Chinese medicine, energy and blood are closely related. The energy channels are pathways for both chi and blood. When a finger touches an acupressure point, the energy flowing in the channel is attracted to the surface. Fully clothed and lying down, I will hold a point until I feel a pulsation under my finger. When energy is attracted to the surface, the flow of blood increases at that location and the pulse is felt. The pulse is a confirmation that the energy is now flowing.
The effectiveness of the work does not depend on the amount of pressure. By holding points in a specific sequence, energy can be increased where it is lacking or dispersed where it is over-abundant. I will move one hand along a series of points, waiting for the pulse to arrive, with the other hand on a "home-base" point, selected for its ability to assist the other points in releasing.
The sequence of meridians used is dependent on your specific ailment, as certain meridians are connected to organs, nerves, and bones of the body. Acupressure promotes circulation, reduces tension, relieves stress, increases energy levels, and strengthens resistance to disease while aiding in healing.
