Messina Acupuncture

Acupressure is a tool used in Chinese Medicine to treat a variety of conditions, and can be thought of as acupuncture without using needles. Instead, manual pressure is applied to points on the body that are sore and tender to the touch. We call these specific points “acupressure points”. Pressure is applied to these painful areas using the fingertips, palm of the hands, knuckles, and elbow.

There are hundreds of acupressure points on the body that can affect areas both locally and away from the point being pressed. This tool is most often used to relieve back pain, neck pain, headaches, migraines, and neuropathies.
