Acupressure

Duties and Responsibilities: Acupressure is an ancient Chinese healing art that is similar to acupuncture, but does not use needles. Instead, body pressure points are manipulated by specially trained massage therapists. Acupressure professionals may earn certificates and degrees at colleges, massage schools and independent facilities to obtain hands-on massage instruction and courses on Asian medicine.

Salary:$81,830-$31,390

Education: You'll find acupressure classes and training programs available at massage therapy institutes and specialized Chinese medicine or acupressure schools. Each acupressure school will offer its own unique curriculum, but, in general, you can expect your acupressure training to cover these subjects:

·         Anatomy and physiology

·         Acupressure points and meridians

·         Theories of Chinese medicine

·         Acupressure techniques and protocols

·         Health, hygiene and contraindications

·         Neuromuscular techniques

·         Clinical practice

Reflection: I would not like to be a person who’s a acupressure because you’ll need to learn every part of the body so that you could put more pressure for the patient and it seems difficult to do acupressure to someone I personally think it’s a great job for someone who will like to do that but acupressure is not for me.
