Reiki uses the palm of the hand to channel universal life energy. Since the acupressure points conduct this energy, the principles of channeling Reiki can be used on these healing points effectively. Integrating Reiki and acupressure enables a practitioner to tap into Traditional Chinese Medicine's tremendous wealth of ancient healing knowledge - information that's point specific.
Reiki can be used on all 365 traditional acupressure points. If you know Reiki, try using the following points, illustrated from Acupressure’s Potent Points: A Self-Care Guide for Common Complaints from A to Z.
