EVERBERG Acupressure is an ancient healing art of traditional Chinese medicine that uses finger pressure
on key points (called acupoints) on the surface of the skin to stimulate the bodys natural self-

and spirit). Acupressure sessions focus not only on relieving discomfort, but also on reducing Akwa Everberg
tensions and toxicities in the body before they develop into an illness.

MASSAGES More than 5,000 years ago, the Chinese discovered that
pressing certain points on the body relieved pain where it 3078 Everberg
WELLNESS ARRANGEMENTEN occurred and also benefited other parts of the body
remote from the pain and the pressure point. They also 0468.24.39.24
WELLNESS OVERNACHTING found other points that not only alleviated pain but also
influenced the functioning of certain internal organs. The
SCHOONHEIDSINSTITUUT distinction between acupuncture and acupressure (the
older of the two techniques) is that needles are used in
CONTACT PRIVE SAUNA AKWA acupuncture, whereas a firm but gentle pressure of the
hands is the basis for acupressure.

AKWA The purpose of acupressure is to relax muscular tension and balance the vital energy forces of
the body through channels or meridians. The twelve meridians are pathways along the body

to flow more slowly, or even stop, resulting in a malfunction or dysfunction in the organ Prive Sauna Blue

associated with that meridian. Each point along the meridian has a specific purpose and is used
ALGEMENE VOORWAARDEN for specific health problems. Each point can also be used to help form a diagnosis.
Theoretically, a stomach problem arises if an obstruction in the stomach meridian slows down
FOTO'S PRIVE SAUNA AKWA the flow of energy. If the obstruction is removed or dissolved, the energy flow becomes regular
and the stomach function returns. However, even though it may be the stomach meridian that is
PRIVE SAUNA CADEAUBON blocked, other areas of the body may also be affected because everything in the body
interrelates.
AKWA FOR BUSINESS Acupoints are places on the skin that are especially
sensitive to bioelectric impulses in the body and conduct Prive Sauna Fire
SITEMAP these impulses readily. The points follow the bodys
meridians. Stimulating these points with pressure (or heat
or needles) triggers the release of endorphins, the
neurochemicals that relieve pain. As a result, the flow of
blood and oxygen to the affected area is increased and
pain is blocked. Tension tends to concentrate around
points. When a muscle is chronically tense or in spasm,
the muscle fibers contract due to the secretion of lactic
acid caused by fatigue, trauma, stress, chemical
imbalance, or poor circulation. As a point is pressed, the
muscle tension yields to the finger pressure, enabling the
fibers to elongate and relax, blood to flow freely, and
toxins to be released and eliminated.

In addition to manipulation of acupoints, a skilled
therapist reviews the whole person, taking into account facial and tongue diagnosis, energy
pulses, and symptoms, both physical and spiritual. The concepts underlying traditional Chinese
medicine and acupressure are qi (vital energy), yin and yang, the five element theory, and the
zang-fu organ system.

Everything in the universe is composed of and defined by qi, sometimes called chi or ki (all
pronounced chee). Qi, or vital energy, is said to be the basis of life. This concept is a
fundamental belief in traditional Chinese medicine. In the human body, the original qi is
transmitted from parents to children at conception and is stored in the kidneys. Grain qi is
derived from the digestion of food. The lungs extract natural air qi from inhaled air. It all comes
together to produce normal qi that permeates the entire body.

The concept of yin and yang holds that everything in nature has two opposite aspects. The
opposition of yin and yang is reflected mainly in their ability to control each other. Warmth and
heat (yang) may dispel cold, while coolness and cold (yin) may lower a high temperature. Under Hotstone Massage
normal conditions in the human body, a relative physiologic balance is maintained through the
mutual opposition of yin and yang. If an excess or deficiency of either yin or yang occurs, the
physiologic balance of the body is affected and illness develops.

In the five element theory, each of the internal organs is linked to one of the five elements in the
natural world, namely wood, fire, earth, metal, and water. For example, the heart is linked to fire.
Classification according to these elements explains both physiologic and pathologic
phenomena and guides clinical diagnosis and treatment. For example, a person with a red
complexion accompanied by a bitter taste in the mouth suggests an excess of heart (fire) that
must be reduced.

All five elements must exist in balance in the body. If one element predominates, the others will
become unbalanced and illness will result.

In the zang-fu organ system, the main physiologic functions of the zang organs heart, lungs,
spleen, liver, kidneys, and pericardium are the manufacture and storage of essential substances.

The fu organs including gallbladder, stomach, small intestine, large intestine, and bladder receive
and digest food and transmit and excrete wastes. In the Chinese system, the organs are
discussed always with reference to their functions and to their relationships with other organs
and other parts of the body. There isnt an exact correlate to the anatomy and physiology of
Western medicine because of the way Chinese medicine developed over the centuries. The
individual is viewed as a whole with interrelationships of the above concepts affecting health
and illness. Gelaatsmassage

Other forms of acupressure are do in, tsubo, and shiatsu. Do in is stretching and self massage of
the acupoints to provide physical energy and mental relaxation. Tsubo, developed
by Katsusuke Serizawa of Tokyo University, refers to keyacupoints (or tsubos) on the meridians
where energy flow to the zang-fu organs tends to stagnate. Shiatsu, the Japanese version of
acupressure, also incorporates some gentle manipulation and body stretches along with using
the pressure points. Some Swedish massage therapists have also studied acupressure and
incorporated it in their treatments.

Benefits And Uses of Acupressure Prive Sauna Centrum Akwa

Acupressure is said to reduce tension, increase circulation, and enable the body to relax deeply.

backache, arthritis, muscle ache, and fatigue. The treatment has also been reported to relieve
ulcer pain, menstrual cramps, constipation, and indigestion.

Acupressure is also a useful self-help therapy and first-aid

treatment; for example, it has been shown to reduce the
frequency and severity of asthma attacks and promote
more effective breathing. The Chinese have used
acupressure as a beauty treatment for thousands of Dode Zee Scrub
years; the points can be used to improve skin condition
and tone and relax the facial muscles. By relaxing and
toning the back muscles, acupressure makes the spinal
adjustments in chiropractic treatment easier and more effective. The deep relaxation promoted Volg @AkwaWellness

The practitioner uses the thumbs and fingers to press key points on the surface of the skin to
locate the stagnation of meridian flow. Pressure is then used to remove the obstruction so that

pressure releases muscle tension, increases blood circulation, and promotes the function of qi

While shiatsu and tsubo carry little risk if performed correctly, some people object to the
pressure. There can be moments where the pressure in a tender spot borders on pain, but this
gives way to relief when the pressure is released.

Clinical considerations
Acupressure should not be performed on a person who has just eaten or on anyone with a high
fever.
Pressure should not be applied to areas of inflammation or to wounds. Caution should be used Relaxen bij Prive Sauna Akwa
with persons suffering from cancer or heart disease, pregnant women, and the elderly. Gentle
pressing techniques can be used in place of the more vigorous ones.
Certain points, such as LI 4, must not be used in pregnant women because stimulation of those
points can cause premature contractions in the uterus.
If pain occurs, the patient should ask the practitioner to adjust the pressure to a more
comfortable level.
With the self-massage of do in, the individual may tend to work too vigorously and not give the
body time to adjust to the stretches.

Research summary

Studies suggest that sensory nerves are probably analogs

of meridians because most acupoints are localized near
nerve fibers. Pressure can induce a wide array of
physiologic responses in nerve fibers and in nerve Facial schoonheidsinstituut
endings. Dishant Shahs study suggests that some Akwa
changes in the brains response to tactile stimuli can be caused by acupressure treatments .

Various studies have examined the effectiveness of acupressure in the treatment of morning
sickness in pregnant women, post-surgical nausea and vomiting, headaches, motion sickness,
backache, and so forth. Research results are mixed.
