Acupressure (a blend of "acupuncture" and "pressure") is an alternative medicine technique derived from acupuncture. So if you are afraid of needles, you may be able to get much of the same effect from acupressure. It is an ancient Chinese healing method that involves applying pressure to certain meridian points on the body to relieve pain. This is the most effective method for treatment of tension-related ailments by using the power and sensitivity of the human hand. It deals with all the aspects of a person as a whole: body, emotions, mind, and spirit as one, not as separate parts. It relaxes muscular tension and balances the vital life forces of the body.
