Acupressure

An ancient practice, acupressure, derived from acupuncture, is performed without needles, solely by applying finger pressure to specific points along the body's meridians. This practice of Traditional Chinese Medicine aims to balance and regulate energy within the meridians and organs. Its application allows for intervention on the physiological, energetic, and psychological aspects of the individual.

Given my 'psychotherapeutic' background, I am particularly attentive to this last point.

When the body strongly expresses its need for change, acupressure becomes a very enlightening way to read the revolutions that need to be made.

Allopathic medicine now recognizes that 90% of lower back pain is not mechanical in origin (herniated discs, injuries, etc.) but rather environmental and psychological. The pain is very real and expresses the weight of life, the rigidity that compels us to persevere at all costs until we reach a breaking point. Acupressure is a safe therapy for addressing the physical symptoms of psychological distress.

I also use acupressure to support patients in psychotherapy and offer them the resources needed to put into practice a recent realization, for example.
