Acupressure seeks to cure diseases by restoring the imbalance of energy flow in the human body. As per the basic principle of the therapy, energy is constantly flowing in the human body along defined pathways known as meridians. A disease occurs if the energy flows becomes excess or deficient, gets impeded or counter flows due to various external or internal factors. A number of points known as acu points are located along these meridians and control the flow of energy on these pathways, just the way electrical switches/ regulators control the flow of the current in a circuit. Stimulation of these acu points with finger, thumb or object pressure using specific techniques corrects the energy imbalance along a meridian and the disease gets cured.

Shiatsu Acupressure Therapy, Magneto Therapy, Seed Therapy and Chromo (Colour) Therapy are Allied Acu therapies being in practiced in various parts of the world with a varying degree of spread, popularity and acceptance.

Shiatsu Therapy is a healing art form from the Eastern–Oriental world and recently developed on scientific lines in the West. Shiatsu applies manual and digital pressure to the skin with the aim of preventing and curing illness by stimulating the body’s natural powers of recuperation, eliminating fatigue-producing elements, and promoting general good health.
The medium of application in Shiatsu therapy is finger, thumb or object pressure. The aim in all cases is to stimulate the acu points in order to achieve their tonification (increase of energy) or sedation (decrease of energy) with a view to balancing the energy flow at these points.

It has been found that the same effect can be achieved by the application of micro magnets, seed or colour on these acu points. The modified therapy is known as Magneto / Seed / Colour Therapy, depending upon the medium of application.
