How are acupuncture and acupressure alike and how are they different?
Both acupuncture and acupressure are designed to stimulate energy flow or release energy blockages in the body. Acupressure is an invasive procedure that involves inserting fine needles at specific points on the body. Acupressure is noninvasive and involves using the fingers, knuckles, or elbows to apply pressure to specific points.
