In this episode, Dr. Vinny explores acupressure, a hands-on healing technique rooted in Traditional Chinese Medicine that he’s used effectively in his practice for years. He discusses how acupressure, also known as "tui na," helps relieve energy blockages, reduce stagnation, and promote natural healing - especially for conditions like digestive issues, allergies, headaches, and musculoskeletal pain.

Dr. Vinny shares how he integrates acupressure with other holistic techniques including breathing exercises (inspired by Oxygen Advantage and the Buteyko Method), spinal analysis, and individualized treatment plans. He emphasizes that while some pressure points can be uncomfortable, the discomfort is therapeutic and often leads to powerful relief.

Highlights include:

• How acupressure supports organ and meridian balance
• Techniques for at-home self-care, including tips for bloating relief
• Using acupressure for sprained ankles and chronic conditions
• Why movement and energy flow are essential for health
• Dr. Vinny’s philosophy of combining multiple healing approaches for personalized care
• “Movement is key to life. Everything that keeps us healthy, happy, and productive requires flow.”
