    Acupressure is an ancient healing technique that uses pressure on points along energy meridians in the body to relieve pain and treat various disorders. It is a safe, simple, and economical treatment that can be done at home by pressing points with the thumb, palm, or fingers. Common conditions that acupressure can help include headaches, back pain, knee pain, obesity, menstrual problems, thyroid issues, diabetes, hypertension, and stress/anxiety. The meridian pathways connect to vital organs and help energy flow; imbalance or blockages in these meridians can lead to illness.
