What is Acupressure?

Acupressure therapy was developed in Asia over 5,000 years ago. Unlike traditional 'acupuncture' which utilizes needles that puncture the skin, 'acupressure' is also an ancient healing art using gentle to firm finger pressure to gradually press key healing points which constitute the same pressure points and meridians used by needle and laser acupuncture.

Shiatsu is one of the most well-known forms of acupressure in the United Stateshaving profound cultural Japanese roots.Shiatsu Therapy has many applications such as sports medicine, pain management and spa work. The different forms of Shiatsu depend upon the way the acupressure points are stimulated: 1) through the rhythm of the practitioner, and 2), through the Shiatsu bodywork method – using the hands, knuckles, knees, elbows, feet, full-body movements, and gentle stretching.
