Acupressure therapy was developed over 5,000 years ago as an important aspect of Eastern medicine. Acupressure therapy is an alternative medicine technique that is similar to acupuncture but without the use of needles. It is based on the concept of life energy which flows through the body.
During the treatment, pressure is applied to acupuncture points with the aim of clearing blockages of the flow of energy throughout the body. Pressure is applied by Dr. Jackson with his hands and fingertips. As these acupressure points are stimulated, muscular tension releases, circulation of blood is promoted, and the body’s life force energy is enhanced to aid in healing.
