Can acupressure handle emotional issues like anxiety and nervousness?

Many people turn to energetic healing techniques like acupressure for relief of
physical ailments. But what about our emotions?

The good news is that energy healing techniques like acupressure work for more

than just physical illnesses. In fact, some people might attest that they work even
more quickly at solving emotional problems than they do at solving physical
problems.

In my experience, this tends to be true. This is because the emotions are directly
tied to the spiritual energy system of the human body.

When energy is imbalanced, negative emotions arise. And when energy is brought
back into balance and proper ow, negative emotions subside and allow for
emotional peace and happiness to ow forth.

In fact, this entire premise is the basis upon when Emotional Freedom Techniques,
an o shoot of acupuncture/acupressure theory, arose. The founder discovered that
by tapping on acupressure points while adding in a few other steps as well, you
could solve emotional problems in the mind.

He later discovered that by solving emotional problems, physical problems tend to

subside as well, sometimes drastically.

But regardless of EFT, we are talking about acupressure. Although very similar in
theory and nature, acupressure is di erent than EFT in that you simply press and
hold pressure on the various points for a period of time. You do not need to tap the
points like in EFT.

Acupressure can be e ective at ridding the mind of harmful emotions by balancing

your meridian energy system. On this page, I'll share with you some useful
acupressure points for getting rid of anxiety and fearfulness.
