Acupressure is a complementary medicine technique that is frequently used in conjunction with acupuncture or reflexology. It is based on the idea of life energy flowing through the body's "meridians." Physical pressure is placed on acupuncture points or ashi trigger points during treatment to clear blockages in these meridians. Pressure can be applied with the hand, the elbow, or various devices. Acupressure therapy was widely used in India. Acupressure therapy was integrated into standard health practice in China after the spread of Buddhism, and it became known as acupuncture. Scholars draw attention to these parallels because the major points of Indian acupressure and Chinese acupuncture are similar. Acupressure can be beneficial in relieving nausea and vomiting following surgery or invasive medical procedures. Acupressure can also assist in relieving pain. Although some research has been conducted to document the benefits of acupressure, it has been limited. Several small studies, according to the National Cancer Institute, have shown that acupressure can help cancer patients by reducing cancer-related fatigue and nausea. Many patients report that acupressure has helped them with pain, stress, and anxiety, but there hasn't been any research done specifically with cancer patients to back up these claims. Acupressure should be used in conjunction with medical treatment rather than as the sole treatment for a serious illness or chronic condition.

There are various instruments for applying nonspecific pressure to the body's reflex zones by rubbing, rolling, or exerting pressure. The acuball is a small, heatable rubber ball with protuberances. It's a tool for applying pressure and relieving muscle and joint pain. The energy roller is a small, protruding cylinder. Acupressure is applied by rolling it back and forth between the hands. The foot roller (also known as the "Krupa chakra") is a cylindrical round roller with protuberances. It is placed on the floor and rolled back and forth with the foot. The power mat (also known as the pyramid mat) is a walking mat with small pyramid-shaped bumps. Spine rollers are bumpy rollers with magnets that are rolled up and down the vertebra.

An acupressure wristband that claims to relieve motion sickness and other forms of nausea apply pressure to the P6 acupuncture point, which has been widely investigated.
