Acupressure
This method of healing uses presure on certain points on your body to stop pain.
Have you ever heard to stop a toothache press at the joint where your thumb and pointer finger meet on the hand that is on the same side as your toothache? That is acupressure. I find it to be a very real way of dealing with pain. I use it on a day to day basis with myself and my children.
Acupressure can heal many diffrent things including:
Backache
Menstrual Cramps
Headaches
Migraines
Eye Strain (I find not being on the internet for 10 hours straight helps that quite a bit...)
Neck Pain
Sinus Pain
Ulcers
Sports Injuries
Constipation
Digestive Problems
Insomnia
This is a breakdown of the diffrent Meridians:
1. Major Meridians:
The meridians that run up the front of the body: Lung, Heart, Pericardium, Liver, Spleen, and Kidney.
The meridians that run up the back of the body: Large Intestine, Small Intestine, Bladder, Stomach, Gallbladder, and Triple Warmer. (Let me explain the triple warmer a tad...The Chinese system identifies some connections int he energy system {chi} that do not fit with "normal" anatomy as we know it.).
2. The extraordinary channels:
Sound diffucult? Not really. Get a good book with some good charts. Sit down some evening and try a few pressure points. It works wonders...
