Definition
of Acupressure
from
wikipedia.org
Acupressure
(a blend of "acupuncture"
and "pressure") is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM)
technique derived from acupuncture. In acupressure physical pressure
is applied to acupuncture points by the hand, elbow, or with various
devices.
Traditional Chinese medicine's acupuncture theory predates use of the scientific
method. Acupuncturists
tend to perceive TCM concepts in functional rather than structural
terms, i.e. as being useful in guiding evaluation and care of
patients. Neuroimaging research suggests that certain acupuncture
points have distinct effects that are not otherwise predictable
anatomically. |
