Acupressure works on the same energy-meridian principles as acupuncture but uses precise finger, thumb and palm pressure instead of needles. It is the ideal choice for patients who prefer a needle-free, deeply relaxing therapy that still delivers powerful results.
Our trained therapists apply graded pressure at over **360 specific points** to release blocked energy (qi), ease muscle tightness, improve circulation and rebalance the parasympathetic nervous system. Sessions are calming, safe and completely non-invasive.
