Accupressure and Muscle Testing

I am so excited about the classes I'm taking in Idaho. I am learning to muscle test and getting comfortable holding pressure points. Acupressure uses the same pressure points as Acupuncture without the needles.

My husband has had severe pain in his leg muscles for several years. He has lost muscle in both legs. When I got back from Idaho just recently I held all of his end points throughout his body. He experienced amazing relief from pain in his legs, back and hip. His headache went away. The only pain he had was in his shoulder where he tore the tendon loose from his shoulder bone.

It was amazing to watch him go from chronic pain to almost no pain in about 10 minutes. Prior to holding pressure points he was moaning about how miserable he was. He had work to do but had no motivation to drag his body outside to do it.

After we held pressure points, he sat on the bed for a minute or two and looked up at me with a smile. He made a big announcement about how he was going outside to crank up the chain saw and start cutting down more trees. He came back in after twisting the wrong way and re-injuring his hip. I muscle tested the points that we needed to hold specific for his hip. After holding points for that area, he got up and was ready to cut up more trees.

He felt so much better the rest of the day. It has been a little over a week now and the pain in his legs is still GONE. The pain in his hip and back (from an accident that left him paralyzed from the waist down for 4 years) was moderate. We are still working on his shoulder. It is amazing what acupressure will do. I am so grateful that I have the opportunity to learn this amazing technique for natural healing. I am having AMAZING results holding points for my friends.
