What is Acupressure?

Acupressure is a technique that allows one to actively help improve your horse’s health. It’s a non-invasive technique that uses pressure to activate points to help balance the flow of life’s energy called chi. There are 14 meridians within a horse’s body with 361 pressure points. Each point plays an active role to either activate or release problems. Acupressure has proven to help in many areas such as:
