ACUPRESSURE

Acupressure is often referred to as the non-intrusive precursor of acupuncture. It's used to stimulate the flow of vital energy (or chi) that circulates along the body's meridians and therefore influences the functioning of certain internal organs. The practitioner uses both thumbs and fingertips to apply pressure. Symptoms are relieved and balance is restored not only to the area where pressure is applied, but the whole body. It's especially useful for stress, sciatica, arthritis, headache, and fatigue.
