Absolutely. Acupuncturists are trained in other modalities including:
Acupressure: an ancient healing art that uses the fingers to skillfully press acupuncture points. When these points are pressed, they release muscular tension and promote circulation of blood, and energy (Qi) to aid healing. Acupuncture and acupressure use the same pressure points and meridians, but acupuncture uses needles, while acupressure uses gentle to firm pressure. Acupressure’s healing touch reduces tension, increases circulation, and enables the body to relax deeply. By relieving stress acupressure therapy strengthens resistance to disease and promotes wellness.
