The word "Acupressure" means to press with a needle. The science of acupressure developed, as it was seen that effects similar to that of acupuncture could be obtained by pressing acupuncture points. The term acupressure implies the application of pressure on an acupuncture point with a needle without actually piercing the skin.

I would like to discuss various acupressure points here but lets start with Acupressure points for Emotional Well being

I once wrote a paper on acupressure which, let's say, involved extensive research, and yet in VAIN, as most of studies are too short to come to anything conclusive.

@ Gurpinder .. Raje its not andh vishwass. I think its recognized by WHO.

@ Noxious - One of mine friend is undergoing Acupuncture therapy . n Its very common with Acupressure.. the only difference is that they use needles to press those energy points in body. n She is really getting benefited with this.
