Does an acupressure chart show what areas are used to treat certain ailments?

Answer by  vitalichi (84)

An acupressure chart shows the locations of the most common 359 points on the body, but without knowledge of the meridian system, and the functions of each point, a lay person would not be able to figure out how to treat a specific illness.

An acupressure chart only shows the location of the key healing points. The charts usually come with a reference booklet that explains how to relieve pain and treat certain ailments.

Yes, the meridians correspond with certain organs found in the body. For example acupressure can be used to treat back pain.
