Comprehensive Pain Therapy For Insomnia, Frozen Shoulder and Sciatic Nerve Pain. With Advanced Acupressure Massage.

Acupressure is a form of manual therapy used to relieve pain and muscle tension all over the body.

Unlike acupunture, where needles are inserted into the skin, it is performed with fingers gradually pressing onto key points around the body to simulate pain relief, muscle relaxation, and promote blood flow.

Acupressure techniques are used on trigger points within muscles and soft tissues. A trigger point is a neuromuscular point where a muscle and a nerve meet together and cause irritation. This meeting place often causes pain when compressed and can lead to muscle spasms and localized discomfort.

When acupressure techniques are applied, pain is often reduced by interrupting pain signals to the brain and encouraging deep relaxation.

Massage Therapy, seen as a western-style of therapy, is the rubbing of the soft tissues of the body, such as the muscles. Helpful in reducing tension and pain, improving blood flow, and encouraging relaxation, massage therapists usually apply pressure with their hands to affected areas of the body. Some massage styles are gentle while others are very active and intense.

For example, Swedish massage can be seen as a gentle approach and is often used to promote relaxation, improve blood flow, and relieve muscle tension. Using long, gliding strokes and kneading and tapping techniques on the top layer of muscles in the direction of blood flow to the heart. This may also include moving the joints gently to improve the range of motion.

Deep tissue massage is more active and intense. It is used to treat long-lasting muscle tension. The therapist applies slow strokes (with the fingers, thumbs, and elbows) using intense pressure to reach deeper layers of the muscles than those reached with a Swedish massage technique.

While the fundamentals of Acupuncture and Acupressure are the same, the biggest difference is in the use of needles on the patient.
