Acupressure for Teachers

How cool is that???

My friend Funmilayo is offering this workshop for teachers practically for free (sliding scale from $5 to $15).

Acupressure is an ancient healing art utilizing light to medium finger pressure to specific
points on the body. Acupressure can be very helpful in relieving stress and promoting
an overall sense of calm in many people. It has been helpful in relieving muscle tension,
headaches as well as strengthening the body’s resistance to various illnesses. In the spirit
of “Taking care of yourself”, acupressure allows you to embrace balance, calm and peace of
mind into your life.

For more information and /or to arrange your appointment . . . Call: Your Body’s Melody 510-304-5785

Space is limited to 5 teachers so hurry. She may be able to set up two sessions if there is a need but that still leaves thousands of teachers stressed out so hurry!
