A Short Guide To Acupressure

By Linda Deen

As its name suggests, it uses pressure, finger pressure, to be exact. This simple method can help with many health issues.

Acupressure has been in use for more than 5000 years. It's a part of traditional Chinese medicine and is most widespread in Asian regions.

It's interesting, however, that the earliest evidence of its use was not found in Asia, but in Europe, of all places. A 5300 year old mummy named Otzi, discovered in the Alps in 1991, had tattoos (simple dots and lines) that correspond almost perfectly with acupressure points.

According to traditional Chinese Medicine, energy or qi, sort of like a life force of all living things, runs through the human body along pathways called meridians. Blocked or diminished qi can result in various health problems. Acupressure works by stimulating acu-points located on meridians to balance and unblock the qi energy flow.

Acupressure is known to be one of the most effective methods to alleviate pain and stress. It can be used to treat a number of conditions and diseases, including headaches, neck and back pain, arthritis, asthma, bronchitis, sinusitis, sore throat, digestive problems, skin problems, menopausal problems, depression, insomnia, high blood pressure and many, many more.

It is a noninvasive technique. Pressure is applied using fingers, hands, or elbows. Acupoints are rich in blood and quite sensitive to pressure.

Acupressure is very safe, with very few possible side effects. It's usually used to compliment the western medicine not replace it. If you're sick, see a doctor. If you have a heart disease or if pressure points are located under a mole, abrasion or cut, you should not use it. Pregnant women should familiarize themselves with maternity acupressure.

Wal-mart Money Card - Review

By Jennifer Ryans

If you are a frequent Walmart customer, you know that in their large stores, they have just about everything you need for your every day life. Did you know that they also offer a prepaid credit card?

This offers an alternative for those that have made past financial mistakes and can not qualify for a traditional card.

Those with negative entries on their report will be happy to know that there is no credit check and no bank account is required. Instead, you receive a reloadable Visa where putting more money on to it can be done either by direct deposit or by cash or check.

It can be used anywhere that a Visa card is accepted. You can use it to pay all of your utility bills, buy groceries, or anything else. You can follow your balance either online or by receiving alerts on your cell phone.

Here's how it works. First, you purchase it. There is an $8.94 issuance fee that you must pay. Next, if possible, you will want to set up a direct deposit. This will not cost you anything so this is the best way to load funds.

After that, a $4.64 monthly fee is charged and each time the card is reloaded, it costs $4.94. To avoid the reload fee, have money directly deposited.

You will also not be charged the $4.94 if you cash a paper check. You will, however, have to pay the $3 check cashing fee but this is still cheaper than taking your check to another place.

Also, try to avoid ATMs. If you check your balance at an ATM, it will cost you 75 cents. If you make a withdrawal, you will be charged a $1.95 fee. If you need to withdrawal money, go to your local Walmart where it will cost you nothing.

If you would like a monthly statement, they will charge you $3 per month. As you can see, although this card is convenient, it has a whole host of fees.

What makes it good is that you cannot be overdrawn so those $39 fees that you may have been accessed at your bank won't happen again.
