Acupressure~ An ancient healing art which skillfully presses key points and meridians that stimulate the body's natural self-curative abilities. When these pressure points are pressed, they release muscular tension, and promote circulation of blood, and the body's life force energy to aid healing.

Trigger Point~ Deep pressure is applied directly on the palpable nodules in taut bands of muscle fiber (trigger points). Enlongating the structures affected along their natural range of motion and length, will deactivate the trigger point, relieving the associated pain and weakness.
