Acupressure for anxiety

For those with mild to moderate hyperhidrosis, acupressure might help. Basically, you apply pressure to various points of your body. Some believe that acupressure can relieve anxiety. Sure, massage is better. But acupressure is free.

Try these acupressure techniques and let me know if it helped. They helped me! Then again so does chasing soccer balls, petting puppies, and watching Will Ferrell movies.

Love,
Tiara

Acupressure for hyperhidrosis

Yesterday I went to a medical lecture about acupressure, a type of traditional Chinese medicine that can be self-administered. My hands were drippy wet, and I hadn't even been feeling anxious. And of course the only pen I had on me was the type that runs everywhere when the ink touches my sweaty left writing hand.

The speaker had us do a 5 minute acupressure self-treatment, placing a finger on a pressure point where the shoulder meets the clavicle. Within a few minutes, the sweat had seriously subsided.
