The pains can be relieved quickly without medication.
It is deemed safe as acupressure massage does not require any medical equipment.
Perception that acupressure may help to enhance the immune system.

Does acupressure massage actually cure disc herniation?

Those people who believe in traditional medicine will choose acupressure to treat disc herniation. The fact is that this method would only serve to help improve blood flow at the acupressure point and to relax contracting muscles, thereby suppressing pain. An acupressure massage would only resolve paint symptoms at that point in time as this traditional method cannot completely treat and realign deviation of the disc to its original position.
