It's a Japanese type of massage. It's massaging those acupressure points with deep tissue massage techniques. As far as deep pressure points, if a muscle is in a real big spasm sometimes we use just pressure points on that muscle. If muscles are really tight it's because they are contracted and not working properly. So we can get that muscle to completely relax by putting pressure on those pressure points. It's like if you would start running and keep running and keep running and keep running. Some people could only get to the end of a block and some people could run 100 miles until they reach a point where they are so tired that they have to just lie down and relax. It is the same kind of scenario that we do with the pressure points on a muscle. We just to try to wear the muscle out, so that it has to relax.
