Acupressure
When does it apply?
Acupressure is an alternative medical technique that is often used in combination with acupuncture or reflexology. The treatment applies physical pressure to the trigger points in order to improve the condition and eliminate pain. The pressure can be applied manually or with special tools. Mainly acupressure is applied to:
- help with muscle pain and spasms
- reduce nervous tension
- eliminate fatigue
- activates the body or individual systems
What are the main benefits?
Acupressure works by applying pressure to specific points on the body. Applying pressure requires precision. Like the network of vessels of the circulatory system, each duct has a network of connections.
The applied pressure is often held for a few seconds to minutes. Treated points are not directly treated on the skin, although the manipulated points may be sensitive. Depending on the condition, treatment may be administered daily or several times daily.
