Q. What does
acupressure feel like?
Ans. Most people
really enjoy the feeling of acupressure. At first, when you are applying acupressure
to a point related to a tense or spasmed muscle,
you will notice a feeling best described as a "good
ache," Within 15 seconds to 1 minute of pressure you
will notice the ache gradually diminish and be replaced by a relaxed
and warm feeling.
Q. How often
should I apply acupressure?
Ans. Acupressure
is completely safe and can be done as many times a day as you want or need.
Let your body be the judge as to how much you need? If you feel good and your
muscles feel relaxed your probably doing it the right amount.
Q. Is it safe to use
when I am pregnant?
Ans. Acupressure
is highly recommended to relieve aches that so commonly accompany pregnancy.
Back pain is one of the most common discomforts
during pregnancy, especially during the last
trimester. Back pain acupressure relieves discomfort
safely, without drugs and medicines,
during pregnancy. Some of the acupressure points
have a tendency to stimulate womb contractions and thus you must not use them
when you are pregnant.
Q. How can acupressure
be so effective?
Ans. When acupressure
points are pressed your own nervous system
releases specific molecules in the muscles,
spinal cord, and brain. These molecules, like endorphins, remove pain, or
t hey trigger the release of additional molecules
and hormones which in turn eliminate pain and naturally boost
your body's own healing systems. Acupressure also
controls the pain message transmission in your nerves, blocking the nerves
that carry pain messages.
Q. How fast does
acupressure work?
Ans. Acupressure
is as fast as your nervous system. When
you press the right combination of acupressure points, it activates
your neural system to heal your back pain. You
can experience back pain relief in few
seconds. As you can imagine, your nervous system is incredibly speedy, and
that is the speed acupressure uses to help relieve your back pain. If
more neuronal messengers are triggered, it might take from
60 seconds to few minutes to see results.
Q. How long
does it take to do the entire Acupressure Works routine?
Ans. The entire
acupressure routine can take as little as 10 minutes or as long as you want.
Once people start using acupressure on themselves they find it
Feels Really Good. When is the last time you asked someone who
is rubbing your shoulders to stop. Never right. Same thing with
this acupressure system. Once you start you
wont want to stop.
