ABOUT ACUPRESSURE Acupressure is the art of assessing and then releasing blocked or congested energycenters in the body, thus making way for a symmetric flow of energy.Acupressure is an ancient system that has been practiced in India and China for centuries.Traditionally, Asian cultures conceived the points as junctures of special pathways that carry human energy.Western scientists have also mapped out and proven the existence of this system of body points by using sensitive electrical devices.Modernization of society has made life hectic, strenuous, challenging and competitive.This constantly changing environment has taken its toll, and with the resultant increase of stress-related illnesses amongst the old and young, Acupressure offers much needed remedies.
HOW IT WORKS
Stimulating the acupressure points with pressure causes the effect of reverse stimuli enhancing the coordination of mind and body. The stimuli further promote and trigger the neurotransmitters responsible for muscle function. As a result the functionality of the muscle is established and the pain is eased. The above is understood in the traditional approach as “blocked or constricted flow of energy to the affected area”.
At Dr. Sarvotham's Clinic, pressure is applied using the thumbs for a few seconds in sequential order, designed to awaken the meridians. It is further supported by stretching, breathing and quick de-polarization /re-polarization. This technique helps in relaxing the condition, increasing the energy levels in both mind and body.
Besides relieving pain, acupressure can help in balancing the body by dissolving tensions and stresses that inhibit the immune system and keep it from functioning smoothly. Proper circulation of bioelectricalenergies promotes harmony, health, and wellbeing.
ACUCRANIO
Cranio Sacral Therapy originating in the early 1900’s is the science of feeling the motion of the cranial bones and the pulse of the body caused by the movement of the cerebrospinal fluids that maintain the balance of the nervous system. This unique technique, incorporated with acupressure, is called Acu-Cranio and is designed to reduce stresslevels and eliminate related dysfunctions.
