There are several different types of acupressure. The most common is acupuncture, which involves inserting needles into specific points on the body to stimulate the flow of energy and improve health. Other forms include acupressure massage, which uses pressure from fingers or thumbs to help relax muscles and ease pain; auricular acupressure, which applies pressure to the outer ear for a similar effect; and trigger point therapy, which focuses on certain areas of tightness in the body that can cause pain or discomfort.
