The Importance of Health Maintenance

Keeping good health.

Optimal wellness is expressed not only by a lack of sickness or symptoms, but also by vitality, motivation, and general well-being.

A Healthy Diet and Physical Exercise are fundamental.

It is important to keep in mind, that we can change our habits and routines... but not all at once.

Step-by-step... letting a new routine 'sink in'... getting rid of one bad habit at a time.

Acupressure Routine

This routine requires about 20 minutes. It focuses on stimulating and regulating Qi flow and establishes harmony throughout the body.

Start with a few deep breaths - fill the belly and lungs deeply with air... and let it all out...

Stand up and take your arms over your head while breathing in and stretch backwards as far as comfortable.

Exhale as you bend forward, stretching your arms to the floor.

Inhale as you stand back up. Bring your arms over your head and lean to the side, exhaling as you lean. Breathe in as you straighten up, and repeat on the other side.

Repeat the whole sequence 3 times...

After this warm up, you're ready to begin the pressure-point routine.
