Sometimes thought of as accupuncture without needles, acupressure is an Asian therapy that places physical pressure to specific points on the body called acupoints. It's purpose is to remove blockages in meridians that affect Qi (life energy). Using fingers, hands, elbows or instruments, acupressure can enhance circulation and balance and treat various ailments and conditions to improve health.

Acupressure therapy can also reduce muscle tension, nausia, relieve headaches and other pain, and promote deep states of relaxation.
