Acupressure techniques
Acupressure is a technique that involves applying gentle, targeted pressure to specific points on the body, known as acupoints, to promote relaxation and relieve discomfort. By stimulating these points, which are linked to energy flow and bodily functions, acupressure can help reduce stress, alleviate pain, and improve overall well-being. Techniques include using fingers, palms, or tools to press or massage the acupoints for a few seconds to a few minutes. It is a non-invasive practice often used as a complementary approach alongside other therapies and can be self-administered or performed by trained practitioners.
