Alleviating The Symptoms Of HCV Through Acupressure Therapy

A lot of people would love to offer their opinions and insights regarding the way they deal with the sometimes painful and uncomfortable symptoms of Hepatitis C. One very helpful treatment that has been shown to provide meaningful relief is an ancient healing modality called acupressure that relies on direct application of pressure on selected pressure points on the body to generate a desired outcome.

Having been practiced in China more than 5,000 year ago, acupressure was used to stimulate energy and alleviate pain in the body. Soon, medical scientists were able to observe that obstructions in the flow energy in the body were causing illness and pain and, by using certain acupressure procedures, they were able to lessen or completely heal many of the side effects of these conditions.

Acupressure has been shown to work against some of the symptoms of Hepatitis C (as well as side effects caused by conventional interferon therapy). These symptoms include nausea, headache, fatigue nausea and other flu-like symptoms. The most common manifesting symptom of HCV cited is fatigue; acupressure therapy targeting specific pressure points can activate the movement of energy in the body, which lowers the level of fatigue significantly. Besides helping alleviate those symptoms, acupressure also has shown to be effective in the process of detoxification. It also boosts blood circulation and helps in the removal of toxins in the body while stimulating energy flow within the body.

More and more people suffering from Hepatitis C these days are favoring alternative forms of treatment in lieu of conventional pharmaceutical therapies. Acupressure is an alternative type of therapy that has proven to work in relieving the painful and uncomfortable symptoms associated with HCV. It is a very useful form of treatment for those suffering from Hepatitis C, more so for people who are currently into conventional treatment. It requires no tools or equipment and is easy to learn (provided one learns from a qualified practitioner).
