History of this healing art:

Since 5,000 years acupressure is being practiced as a healing art and is one the most popular methods for curing pain and illness across the globe. The history of acupuncture dates back between 2697 and 2596 B.C. during emperor Huang Ti’s reign. Till 17th century the western world was completely unaware of Chinese medicine and acupressure. The recent history of acupressure reveals that in 1970s World Health Organization after a series of research declared acupressure medicine highly effective in treating 40 major diseases.

Origin of acupressure therapy:

In early times when stones and arrows were used in war, many wounded soldiers began to report relief from long standing problems which suddenly vanished. It was first difficult to associate the link between being injured by a piercing object, and the restoration of health. Eventually it was concluded that certain illness could be cured by striking or piercing certain points. The earliest instruments of acupuncture or skin puncture were modified from arrows, stones, bones, bamboo slips and finally needles made of gold, silver and copper.

The goal of acupressure (as well as other Chinese Medicine treatments) is to encourage the movement of qi ("life energy") through the 14 channels (meridians) inside the body. Any imbalance leads to illness. When there is illness there are blockages. In Chinese medicine it is believed that individuals can restore their own health emphasizes personal responsibility for one's health, unlike much of Western medicine.

Acupressure is practiced as a treatment by Chinese medicine practitioners and acupuncturists, as well as by massage therapists. Most massage schools in American include acupressure techniques as part of their bodywork programs.

Acupressure should not be used as the only treatment for serious illness or chronic conditions but should, instead, be in addition to treatment by a licensed doctor.
