What is Acupressure?

Acupressure is a hands-on healing technique rooted in East Asian Medicine (EAM). It involves applying firm but gentle pressure to specific points on the body to stimulate energy flow (Qi) and promote natural healing. By activating these meridian points, acupressure helps relieve pain, improve circulation, and restore balance without the use of needles.

With cold and flu season approaching, beef bone broth is the one recipe to keep on repeat. In Traditional Korean Medicine, this rich, slow-cooked broth is considered warming and deeply nourishing — it builds what we call Qi and blood. That's why it's the go-to food after childbirth, surgery, or illness, and through the coldest months of winter.
