Can acupressure cure diseases?
Hello, Thank you for your question. Case-controlled studies have shown that acupressure therapy stimulates the body’s lymphatic, hormonal and circulatory systems. Acupressure also relieves anxiety and stress, improves sleep, regulates the digestive system, helps minimize migraines and headaches, as well as back pain and menstrual cramps. Applying pressure to certain acupressure points can even induce labor. You must have heard of acupressure points, which help with motion sickness, nausea (after surgery or chemotherapy), as well as helping patients who suffer from insomnia. Therefore, as you can see, acupressure is a very good modality to treat the above conditions. I would be careful suggesting that acupressure CURES a disease, but it certainly helps treat many conditions. Good luck with your health journey!!! READ MORE

What are the negative side effects of acupuncture?
Hello, Depending on what the treatment is for and your medical history. It's hard to say, but some patients report more visits to the washroom, some say they felt sleepy after the treatment, while others report a bit of discomfort at certain meridian points, while others feel NOTHING which sometimes bothers them as they expect to feel something or maybe a tangible improvement from the first session or two which is not always possible since many acupuncture treatments may be necessary to achieve success. Very rarely does someone report more annoying or worrisome side effects. Acupuncture is very very gentle therapy and very effective as well. I'm certain you will feel relaxed. READ MORE
