How is acupressure different than acupuncture?
Acupressure (short for “accurate pressure”) applies pressure to certain acupuncture points on the body. However, unlike acupuncture, acupressure does not use needles. Acupressure is commonly applied with the hand or a band, like your BioBand. A band is preferred when the pressure needs to be constant to provide relief, as is the case with nausea relief.
