Description
A guide to acupressure treatments for more than 150 common illnesses and conditions
β’ Shares step-by-step treatment protocols for illnesses such as cold, flu, or digestive problems; chronic conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, and thyroid disorders; and nervous system and emotional complaints such as depression, shingles, Bell's palsy, and stage fright.
β’ Includes detailed diagrams of the commonly known and prescribed acupressure points as well as important new acupoints discovered by contemporary Chinese medical researchers.
β’ Explains how acupressure stimulates the body's natural healing ability.
With the simple touch of your fingertips, you can quickly and easily bring comfort and relief from pain and illness. In this illustrated guide to acupressure for self-care and care of your loved ones, Roger Dalet, M.D., shares step-by-step treatment protocols for more than 100 diseases and disordersβfrom illnesses such as cold, flu, or digestive upset to chronic conditions such as arthritis, diabetes, thyroid disorders, and heart problems to nervous system and mental health disorders such as depression, epilepsy, and bipolar disorder.
Exploring how acupressure works, the author explains how massaging specific healing points stimulates the body's own natural healing ability. Within each treatment protocol, he offers guidance on how acupressure can best help the situationβwhether it is capable of completely curing a condition or whether it should be used to support other healing modalities. In addition to detailed diagrams of the commonly known and prescribed acupressure points, Dr. Dalet includes important new acupoints discovered by contemporary Chinese medical researchers that address ailments resulting from our more sedentary lifestyles and use of computers, such as obesity and eye strain.
A valuable resource for any home, the acupressure treatments presented in this handbook can provide immediate relief for pain and injuries as well as be used preventively. Most importantly, they offer an effective method of self-care and a way to provide comfort and relief to ailing loved ones and especially for the delicate immune systems of children.
