Description

Acupuncture and acupressure are both widely practiced forms of alternative medicine. Acupuncture is part of traditional Chinese medicine that requires the insertion of needles to pre-determined pressure points. Acupuncture and acupressure methods operate on muscles and muscle clusters to relieve tension and pain. Diagnosis of pain is made according to its acuteness and the response of the body to the same.
