What Is Acupressure?

Acupressure is a gentle, hands-on healing practice rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine that has been used for thousands of years. This practice works with the body’s natural energy pathways to aid in a wide range of health conditions including chronic pain and emotional well-being.

Using light to moderate pressure on specific points of the body, acupressure supports the nervous system, encourages circulation of energy, and helps the body move toward balance and regulation.

Unlike acupuncture, acupressure does not use needles — it is entirely non-invasive and deeply supportive.

Many people experience acupressure as calming, grounding, and restorative. Sessions often create space for the body to release held tension, stored stress, and patterns that no longer serve the whole being.

Who Is Acupressure For?

Acupressure may be supportive for individuals who:

• Feel disconnected from themselves or their body

• Experience ongoing physical symptoms without clear or lasting relief

• Live with stress, anxiety, or nervous system overwhelm

• Sense that their body is holding emotional or energetic weight

• Are curious about holistic or integrative healing approaches

• Desire a gentle, trauma-aware, and relational form of care

This work is especially well-suited for those who feel called to explore healing beyond symptom management and are open to understanding themselves more deeply.
