Meridian Therapy, also known as Meridian Massage or Meridian Acupressure, is a traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) practice that focuses on the body’s energy pathways, known as meridians. In Meridian Therapy, the practitioner applies pressure, massage, or other therapeutic techniques to specific points along the meridians.
Meridian Therapy is based on the principles of TCM, which views the body as an interconnected system where imbalances in Qi can lead to various health issues. By stimulating or calming specific points along the meridians, practitioners aim to regulate the flow of Qi, alleviate energy blockages, and promote healing.
The therapy may involve various methods, including acupressure, massage, stretching, or even the use of heat (such as with moxibustion) to influence the meridians. It is often used to address a range of health concerns, including pain management, stress reduction, and the improvement of overall energy and vitality.
