Labor Acupressure works

A safe remedy for overdue pregnancy
does exist!
Up to 93% of pregnant women with an overdue pregnancy can benefit remarkably from labor acupressure. This method is now becoming more and more popular in the West after its success in the East and validation in Western scientific institutions.
Acupressure has been PROVEN to be effective in bringing on labor naturally by helping the baby to descend, ripening and dilating the cervix, and starting the contractions.
Stimulation of specific acupoints successfully induces labor in upto 93% women at full term. In some women treatment can start labor contractions as quickly as in 25 minutes.
Cervical ripening and dilation has been shown to be remarkably fast in women receiving acupressure treatment. Faster cervical dilation and increased intensity and frequency of contractions result in significantly shorter delivery time.
The total labor time (3 cm dilatation to delivery) is on an average two hours shorter in treated women than in women not receiving acupoint treatment. Because acupressure helps your body to work optimally without over-stimulating it, the resultant shorter labor is highly beneficial for both the baby and the mother.
Labor pain relief is immediate and very effective. Pain relief can be so effective that you may feel that the contractions have diminished. However, labor acupressure does not slow down your contractions or dilation, which is a very common occurence with pain medication, such as the epidural.
Labor acupressure is based on physical functions and has nothing to do with mysticism. Thus you don't need to be a ‘believer’ in this technique to greatly benefit from it. Today the number of labor acupressure users is growing quickly, because of the amazing power of acupressure.

The Beginnings of Traditional Chinese MedicineBy: Steve Hudson
At the root of many holistic practices are the philosophies and ideals that come from Chinese medicine. From the beginnings of this practice has been a growth in natural methods to help promote healing and balance.
The beginnings of Chinese medicine as a practice come from the year 800 BC. Even though this practice began before this, it was only recorded beginning in this year through a book known as the Huang Di Nei Jeng or The Yellow Emperors Classic of Internal Medicine. The methods that were used in this book were based around the herbal remedies that were most significant in helping with holistic healing.
The idea of this particular book was based off of the Yellow Emperor, one of the greatest rulers in Chinese history. He is thought to have lived in 4700 BC, and is often attributed as a mythical character with a status of royalty that provided inspiration to those living in the orient. It is through this mythical character that this book of medicine is still portrayed under, with the attribution to the Yellow Emperors knowledge that was passed down holistically.
The beginning of this book included 12 prescriptions through herbs that were used with a combination of twenty-eight different ingredients. By the year 220 BC, the book had become so popular that medical services were established based around the remedies from the Yellow Emperor. The adjustments that were made from this book included detailed classifications of the herbs, how they worked, their strength and what their properties were for healing different ailments.
Overtime, new publications and philosophies were added onto this book in order to provide practitioners with new methods and substances to the basis of the Yellow Emperors remedy book. These additions provided new insights and books, all the way into the 1700s with the contribution of the Theory of Herbal Medicine.
The ancient practices of Chinese medicine through herbal remedies are a true philosophy that shows how time withstands the ideas of holistic treatments. Through the growth of herbal practices, several in the East have found ways to provide insight and balances between different herbs for better practices to gain energy and balance in ones life.
Balanced Cures for Imbalances in Problems
There are a variety of problems that are directly linked to health in the world today. Everything from mental ailments to physical diseases to problems reflected by other more serious problems are becoming better known. In the increase in knowledge for better health is also the desire to find the correct cures for the problems. Not only are Western scientists trying to find solutions, but traditional Chinese medicine is also working towards increasing the availability of ancient solutions.
Not only is Chinese medicine known to help cure common ailments, but it is now being proven that they are working towards finding alternatives in other ways. There are several that are turning towards Chinese medicine to help alternate things such as obesity, smoking and addiction to hard drugs. This is not only a continuation of Chinese medicine, but is also an increase in evidence of the effectiveness of this alternative.
One of the proven effects of Chinese medicine comes from recent research done by a variety of acupuncturists. In this particular study, acupuncture practitioners conducted acupuncture on those who were suffering from obesity and addiction. It was found that there were direct results by refocusing the energy of the person by using specific acupuncture points.
The major change that occurred with the acupuncture is that the chemical of endorphin, which is usually a response to addiction, began to flow differently. This occurred because there were direct pressure points used in the acupuncture that linked to the nervous system. The areas of this nervous system are the ones that carry the endorphins, telling your body that it needs certain things and responds to addictions.
Not only are acupuncturists working with those that are addicted in order to open up channels for releasing endorphins into a different direction, but they are also finding ways to use acupuncture in direct areas for the addictions. Ear acupuncture is one of the most well known ways to change the imbalance of endorphins and is done by stimulating specific nerves in the ears, which causes an increase in endorphins and releases the chemical stimulants to stop addictions.
If you are suffering from an addiction, you can try using acupuncture and ancient Chinese medicine in order to help find a cure. Most likely, your body is telling you to release specific chemicals that cause the addiction. By using holistic methods, you can begin to reverse this process and work towards a well-balanced alternative towards your health.
