Relief at Your Fingertips
If you could use more calm and ease in your days, and restful sleep at night, may I introduce you to self-massage with acupressure?
This is a simple, natural tool you can use to care for yourself. You'll learn to massage the same powerful points on your body that an acupuncturist treats with acupuncture needles, for similar effects. You'll be pressing on the points rather than puncturing them - hence the name, "acupressure."
Have ever had that calm, "blissed-out" feeling after an acupuncture treatment? Or after a hot bath, or a run?
Here you'll learn some points on the landscape of your own body that people use to shift into that state themselves.
About this Course
Hi, I'm Leilani
and I would love to help you feel better. Giving you a natural, empowering tool to find relief and stay well - that's one of my favorite things to do.
I'm a Licensed Acupuncturist and Herbalist in the high mountain desert of southern Utah. Every day, I help people with my own hands (and needles), AND by teaching them to support their own well-being. I help people understand how to heal through food, practice therapeutic exercise, dive deep into their dreams, and use self-massage with acupressure.
As an acupuncturist, I can (and frequently do) put needles in myself. But even for me, acupressure is much more straightforward to work into my day.
I can do it for 1 minute, or 20 minutes.
All I need is my hands.
I turn to acupressure every day, whether to ease a headache, relieve allergy symptoms, or simply prepare for restful sleep.
When I'm not doing acupuncture or acupressure on myself or someone else, I'm usually exploring dreams, cooking, working on my homestead-in-process, hanging out with my family, playing music, or exploring the wilderness.
Students' Words:
"...reduced my anxiety..."
"The course is easy to follow and understand. This program can easily be worked into my every day routine. This quick routine reduced my anxiety and put me directly into a nap!"
Tabitha K.
"...quality sleep..."
"I do this every night before sleep now. It's so calming. If I skip it, I'm still tense, and I don't get the same quality sleep at all."
Corrine L., Salt Lake City, UT
"...gentled, grounded way..."
"I took Acupressure for People with Anxiety almost a year ago and find it very useful. Leilani has such a gentle grounded way, which comes across even on the internet. I use the full routine sometimes, but not every day. I particularly like the sleep points, which I find quite powerful. I often use the points when I'm in a difficult situation, like waiting at the dentist. I'm looking forward to more courses!"
