What is Acupressure
Acupressure is a holistic healing practice rooted in the ancient wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM). It shares the same foundational principles as acupuncture, working with the body’s meridian system to address the root causes of both physical and emotional imbalances.
Instead of needles, this technique uses gentle finger pressure on specific points, known as acupoints, to activate the body’s natural self-healing response and support the flow of vital energy, circulation, and lymph.
This restorative therapy can be highly effective for easing tension, relieving pain, calming anxiety, and enhancing overall well-being. Each session is tailored to your unique needs, offering a personalized experience that restores balance throughout the whole system, helping you feel more aligned — emotionally, physically, and energetically.
In Chinese Medicine, symptoms are viewed as the body’s way of communicating that something is out of balance. These messages may show up as depleted energy, disrupted sleep, hormonal changes, unsettled digestion, emotional disharmony, or pain that doesn’t seem to resolve.
Acupressure offers a way to listen to what the body is expressing and supports its natural ability to return to balance. Each treatment works by restoring flow where energy is blocked, nourishing what's depleted, and calming what's overstimulated. It brings Qi back into harmony so your body can heal from within.
This process is less about fixing symptoms and more about supporting the body in remembering its natural rhythm. Whether you are seeking support for a specific concern or wishing to cultivate long-term balance and wellbeing, each session is tailored to meet you exactly where you are.

Kind Words
"Jennifer's treatments have been incredible. Acupressure has helped ease the scapula pain I experience from scoliosis and has brought me lasting relief. Her sessions also supported me through an emotionally difficult time, helping me feel less stuck after a break-up. Her care is both professional and compassionate. I always leave feeling so relaxed and balanced." - Natalie
"One of the biggest changes I've experienced from having acupressure is having more regular cycles. I had been struggling with irregular cycles for a long time and thought it was just something I had to live with. Once I started acupressure treatments with Jennifer, my cycle became regular, and cramping is way less intense. It's been such a relief to see these changes over time. Overall, I feel more in tune with my body!" -Genna
"I tried acupressure for the first time a few months ago to help manage my anxiety, and it has truly made such a difference in my life. I used to feel like my anxiety couldn’t be managed, and every day I would wake up overwhelmed with it. However, acupressure has really changed my life. After my first visit, I was amazed at how different I felt, and with each session, my anxiety continued to improve. I feel calmer, more relaxed, lighter, and overall better than I have in years. Jennifer is such a sweet and amazing person. I’m not only grateful to have discovered acupressure but also to have met her. She’s very professional, explains each step of the treatment clearly, and always makes sure I feel relaxed and comfortable throughout the process." - VS
What a Session Looks Like
Before Your Session
You’re welcomed into a calm, supportive space and invited to step away from the busyness of the day — to pause, reconnect with your body, and restore your energy. Each session begins with a brief consultation to discuss your concerns, goals, and how your body is feeling. From there, a personalized acupressure treatment plan is created using the principles of the Five Element Theory to guide your session.
During Your Treatment
You’ll remain fully clothed throughout the treatment, so wearing something comfortable and easy to move in is ideal. Gentle, sustained pressure is applied to specific points along the body’s meridians. For 45–60 minutes, you are invited to rest deeply while energy flow is restored, tension begins to release, and your body is guided back into balance.
After Your Session
As the session closes, we’ll discuss simple self-care and lifestyle practices you can integrate at home to extend the benefits of your session and support ongoing balance. Most people leave feeling deeply relaxed yet refreshed, with greater ease and balance throughout the body. Because acupressure supports the body’s natural ability to heal, improvements in sleep, digestion, mood, and vitality often continue to unfold over time.
