1. Sarah Thompson: The Energizer Routine
Sarah is a yoga instructor and wellness advocate who incorporates acupressure into her daily practice. Her favorite technique is what she calls the "Energizer Routine," perfect for starting the day with a clear and focused mind.
Sarah recommends using the LI4 (Hegu) point, located between the thumb and index finger, to boost energy and relieve stress. To replicate her routine:
- Apply firm pressure to the LI4 point using your thumb for 1 minute on each hand.
- Next, massage the ST36 (Zusanli) point, located about four fingers below the kneecap, to increase vitality and support digestion.
- Finish with deep breathing to maximize the benefits.
2. Jason Reynolds: Focus & Relaxation Routine
Jason is a software developer with a high-pressure job. Despite his hectic schedule, he prioritizes wellness by using a quick acupressure routine to boost focus and unwind after a long day.
Jason swears by the Yintang point, also known as the "third eye," located between the eyebrows:
- Use your index finger to gently press and massage this point for 1-2 minutes. This helps calm the mind and sharpen concentration.
- To further relax, Jason massages the PC6 (Neiguan) point, found three fingers below the wrist. This relieves tension and soothes anxiety.
He wraps up with a short meditation session for maximum relaxation.
3. Amanda Lee: Post-Workout Recovery Routine
Amanda is a certified personal trainer who integrates acupressure into her post-workout recovery sessions. Her go-to acupressure points focus on soothing sore muscles and promoting circulation.
Here’s what Amanda does after an intense workout:
- Start with the GB34 (Yanglingquan) point, located on the outer knee, to reduce muscle stiffness and improve flexibility. Apply firm pressure for 1 minute on each leg.
- Next, massage the BL60 (Kunlun) point, found just behind the ankle on the Achilles tendon, to relieve lower-body tension.
- Finish with the SP6 (Sanyinjiao) point, located above the inner ankle, to enhance overall relaxation and circulation.
Amanda loves complementing her routine with stretches and plenty of hydration.
4. Rachel Garcia: Stress Relief & Sleep Enhancement Routine
As a busy entrepreneur and mother of two, Rachel prioritizes stress management and quality sleep. Her evening acupressure routine helps create a sense of calm and prepares her for restful nights.
Rachel’s favorites include:

- Before bed, Rachel always uses the K1 (Yongquan) point, located on the sole of the foot, to ground her energy and signal her body to relax.

5. David Chen: Chronic Pain Relief Routine
David is a marathon runner who uses acupressure to manage chronic hip and back pain from years of intense training. His routine is designed to target pain points and improve flexibility.
