Acupressure and traditional Chinese medicine
Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) considers that the body is traversed by energy pathways — meridians — on which acupuncture points (tsubos) are distributed. When this energy (Qi) circulates freely, the body is healthy. When it is blocked or unbalanced, symptoms appear. Acupressure stimulates these points by manual pressure to restart the circulation of Qi and restore balance.
Ping D, our therapist specializing in acupressure and reflexology, integrates the principles of TCM into his sessions for a complete and personalized energy approach.
The benefits of acupressure
- Relief of nausea - The P6 (Nei Guan) point on the wrist is particularly known for reducing nausea - pregnancy, transport or post-surgery.
- Headache Reduction — The LI4 (Hegu) point between the thumb and index finger is traditionally used to relieve headaches.
- Improved sleep — Working on the heart and kidney meridian points promotes faster falling asleep and deeper sleep.
- Immune support — Stimulation of specific points strengthens the body's natural defenses according to the principles of TCM.
- Emotional balance — Acupressure acts on the meridians associated with emotions — liver for anger, lungs for sadness, kidneys for fear.
