Acupressure Therapy

Acupressure uses gentle hand and finger pressure along the body's energy/meridian channels, to restore and balance the flow of energy throughout the body, thus promoting healing. There are several different forms/styles. What they have in common is their foundation in Chinese medicine.

Our classes train students in several different acupressure styles (some quiet and some active) Students learn how to work with the 5 element theory, the organ meridians, and the acupressure points. Some of the work may be done on traditional floor-mats and some on a massage table.

We offer a large number of Acupressure classes can be taken as part of a 250 hour or 500 hour massage therapist program OR can be taken as continuing education classes. These classes offer a thorough education in Acupressure and may be combined with Western-style Massage Technique or used in your Acupressure practice.
