Acupressure
Acupressure
is widely used in traditional Chinese medicine. Acupressure can
be used over general areas of the body to promote the flow of
Qi and blood through the meridian system.
Acupressure concentrates
on applying pressure to specific acupunctural points in order
to achieve specific systemic changes in the body. In this instance,
different forms of pressure are applied depending on whether the
aim is to:
- tone
- reduce
- achieve a more neutral,
calming effect
The choice of points used
in any acupressure prescription will be based on a differential
diagnosis resulting from an exploration of the patterns of disharmony.Acupressure
techniques can be used in conjunction with other approaches to
treatment in traditional Chinese medicine.
