You’ll receive a full-body assessment, followed by focused acupressure along meridians and trigger points. Pressure varies from gentle to firm based on your comfort. Expect sensations of release, warmth, and gradual relaxation, with time for feedback and adjustments.

Wear loose, comfortable clothing and avoid heavy meals or alcohol before your session. Arrive hydrated and share any medical history, medications, or pregnancy status so the therapist can tailor pressure and techniques safely.

Generally safe for most people, but contraindications include uncontrolled high blood pressure, deep vein thrombosis, contagious skin conditions, or recent surgery. Disclose your health history so therapists can modify treatment or recommend alternatives.

Frequency depends on your goals: weekly for acute tension, biweekly for ongoing relief, and monthly for maintenance. Your therapist will recommend a personalized schedule based on symptom severity, response to treatment, and lifestyle.

Acupressure applies manual pressure to acupuncture points rather than needles, making it noninvasive and often more comfortable. Both aim to restore energetic flow, but sensations and techniques differ and each offers distinct benefits.

Common sensations include warmth, tingling, deep release, and temporary soreness as tension releases. Many clients feel calm or emotionally lighter. Mild soreness may last a day or two—drink water and rest, and contact us for concerns.
