What is "acupressure"?
Acupressure is a technique used to relieve pain and improve health by applying pressure to specific points on the body. It involves using fingers, hands, or special tools to press on these points, which are believed to affect different organs and systems in the body. Acupressure is based on the same principles as acupuncture but does not use needles. It is commonly used to reduce stress, ease headaches, and promote overall well-being.
