There are certain
pressure points that are known to help rejuvenate the skin in Ayurevedic
massage, shiatsu massage, and in Chinese medicine. Massage in Ayurvedic is described as jarahar, the remover of old
age. This is because massage provides nourishment to the skin promoting
circulation of blood and lymph and calming the nervous system. In Ayurvedic these points are referred to as marmas, in
Shiatsu they are referred to as Tsubo points, and in Chinese medicine they are
referred to as acupressure points. |
