acupressure
Now accepting new clients!
Ideal for relief of neck, shoulder, and back tension! Acupressure is a needle free healing technique that involves applying pressure to specific points on the body to stimulate the body's natural healing and relaxation.
The goal of acupressure is to release blocked energy, improve circulation, relieve tension, and promote overall well-being. It is similar to acupuncture but uses fingers, palms, elbows, or other tools instead of needles.
Acupressure treatment is performed by one of our Registered Acupuncturist and billed under Acupuncture Benefits. We cannot direct bill for acupuncture to Empire Life.

Acupressure Scalp Massage
Acupressure scalp massage combines the principles of acupressure and massage therapy to stimulate specific points on the scalp to promote relaxation, alleviate stress, and improve circulation.
Acupressure scalp massage is often done alone but can also be combined with essential oils or other relaxation techniques to enhance its benefits. It's a popular wellness practice for promoting mental well-being, easing tension, and supporting overall health. Acupressure scalp massage can be offered as a separate treatment and does not need to be accompanied by cupping.

frequently asked questions

Cupping is an ancient Chinese method of causing local congestion. A partial vacuum is created by cups placed on the skin using either heat or suction. When the cup is left in place for a few minutes, “blood stasis” is formed and localized healing takes place. The cups draw up the underlying tissues to circulate Qi and blood, release toxins and activate the lymphatic system.
