illness but give importance to those specific points.
> Share your knowledge and
encourage self-help technique.

abnormality in feet and hands.

goal; intersperse the acupressure sessions with relaxation techniques.

keep your finger-nails trimmed so that they do not make any contact with the
skin.

gadgets, there is no substitute for
human hand and human touch.

the body may react to
get ride of the toxins accumulated in the body.
