The purpose of Acupressure is to stimulate the body's own recuperative powers by stimulating the various points on the body or musculature.
The stimulation removes energy blockages by diffusing the toxic build up that accumulates in the muscle tissue.
This accumulation causes stiffness throughout the body. Stiffness in the muscles puts abnormal pressure on nerves, and blood and lymph vessels that in turn affect both skeletal systems and internal organ functioning.
By holding and working sore points, muscle flexibility can be restored. According to the Chinese system of medicine, there are specific pathways of energy that circulate through the body. These pathways, called meridians are like the body's energy highway system.
Most people are considered healthy when these pathways are open and energy flows unhindered.
In the case of these pathways being blocked, proper application of finger pressure can loosen muscular tension, send the blood circulating, and stimulate or balance the flow of energy.
