Acupressure
Acupressure is a complementary therapy that involves applying pressure to specific points on the body to balance energy, promoting healing, reducing muscle tension, relieving pain and much more. Similar to acupuncture in the use of specific acu-points, but utilises pressure from a specialist acupressure pen instead of needles, ideal for those with needle phobias or those who prefer a non-invasive therapy.
Acupressure is believe to stimulate the bodies natural healing processes, increasing blood flow, releasing endorphins and improving oxygen delivery to the stimulated acupressure points. This helps to relax tense muscles, relieve stiffness, and support the management of pain. Acupressure techniques used by Soul Focus do not include massage.
Acupressure for Pain
Acupressure therapy can be offered in treatment of the following conditions:
*Neck pain
*Shoulder pain
*Knee pain
*Upper and lower back pain

It is likely that more than one session will be required to manage pain. Acupressure cannot cure pain but will offer natural pain relief which can vary person to person. It also can have the additional benefits of promoting relaxation and improving sleep. Acupuncture can be used along side medical care to enhance outcomes.
Crystal Acupressure
Combining the use of crystals and Acupressure (without massage) to treat specific painful conditions such as neck pain, back pain and joint pain. Acupressure is a manual therapy technique that involves applying pressure to certain points on the body to provide pain relief but instead of using traditional acupressure pens, crystal points are used to enhance the healing process by the addition of crystal vibrations to amplify to flow of healing energies to the painful areas.
