Within each treatment protocol, he offers guidance on how acupressure can best help the situation—whether it is capable of completely curing a condition or whether it should be used to support other healing modalities. In addition to detailed diagrams of the commonly known and prescribed acupressure points, Dr. Dalet includes important new acupoints discovered by contemporary Chinese medical researchers that address ailments resulting from our more sedentary lifestyles and use of computers, such as obesity and eye strain.A valuable resource for any home, the acupressure treatments presented in this handbook can provide immediate relief for pain and injuries as well as be used preventively. Most important, they offer an effective method of self-care and a way to provide comfort and relief to ailing loved ones and especially for the delicate immune systems of children.
