What people are saying
Acupressure faqs
-
Acupressure is an ancient healing practice that goes back thousands of years. Closely related to acupuncture, it works by stimulating acupoints along your body’s meridian system—without puncturing your skin.
Like cold plunge or deep tissue massage, stimulating those points and leaning into discomfort can release tension and change everything you know about relaxation.
-
By building a deeper awareness of your mind and body, acupressure helps you turn your attention inwards and tap into the amazing healing tool that is you.
This maximizes the time you have to take care of yourself, amplifying any recovery or wind-down routine—and leaving you more relaxed and refreshed than you would be otherwise.
-
Lying down is the easiest way to start: either in bed or on the floor. You can target your back, neck, legs, or any tense area: simply pick one and set a timer. Bare skin for 20+ minutes is best, but you can use a light T-shirt while you get used to the sensation of a few thousand spikes.
-
In short: yes. Acupressure assists your body’s ability to boost circulation, release stubborn tension, and provide temporary pain relief. That makes it a great relaxation aid and tool for the occasional sore back. Perfect if stress has built up from sedentary work, exercise, or physical labor.
