Can acupressure relieve cramps and muscle spasms? Let's nd out!

Acupressure helps heal the body by balancing our inner meridian energy. It can
treat both physical and emotional issues by in uencing this energy.

Muscle cramps can originate from a variety of causes. They can appear due to

stressing out a particular muscle with too much exercise. However, they can also
appear due to too much psychological stress.

Muscle cramps, like any other physical symptom, can also be an expression of
subconscious negative emotions held within the mind. Acupressure's healing touch
can help relieve these negative emotions by balancing the energy disruptions within
the energy meridians that are associated with them.

Cramps can also be a purely physical phenomenon, unrelated to the acupuncture

meridian system or mental issues. Cramps can be caused by excessive overworking
of the muscles, or by a lack of proper diet.

It is especially important to include enough salt and electrolytes in your daily food
consumption in order to counteract cramps. If you su er from cramps regularly,
there is a good chance that a lack of proper micronutrients in your diet is to blame.

Acupressure can help improve almost any issue the body may face, including
muscle cramps and spasms. However, it is unlikely to fully treat a condition that is
caused primarily by improper diet or by an excess of physical stress and strain on
the muscles.

Regardless of the cause of your cramps, acupressure can be used to improve your
situation.

Acupressure points for cramps can be used in two separate ways. Below, I'll show
you some pressure points that will be useful for treating cramps anywhere in the
body. These generic cramp pressure points are the rst way to treat your muscle
cramps.

The second way is to put pressure directly onto the cramped muscle and hold it still
for a prolonged period of time. This pressure will help balance the force of the
cramp and help stabilize the muscle until it returns to normal.

Let's take a look at the generic acupressure points that can be used to relieve all
muscle cramps and spasms anywhere in the body.

1. Governing Vessel 26, on the upper lip, above the mouth, directly below the
nose.
