Below is an exraction from the finding of The following findings from a medical article.  1: J Clin Nurs. 2008 May;17(9):1174-81.1:

AIMS AND OBJECTIVES: The purpose of this study was to assess the body weight gain of combined acupressure and meridian massage in premature infants.

BACKGROUND: Each year in Taiwan, 8-10% of newborns are delivered prematurely. Effective postnatal care is essential to ensure the healthy development of premature infants. Massage therapy has been administered to facilitate weight gain in the neonatal unit. The evidence-based findings in previous studies did not include acupressure or meridian massage.

METHODS: Forty subjects were randomised into two groups.

The 20 subjects in the experimental group were given a standard procedure of acupressure.

The control group, also consisting of 20 subjects, underwent routine care and was observed. The infants’ body weights and the volume of milk ingested were measured and recorded daily.

RESULTS: The daily average weight gain of the infants in the experimental group was 32.7 g (SD = 8.1) compared with 27.3 g (SD = 7.7) in the control group (approx 20% improvement). 

CONCLUSIONS: An experimental trial established the effects of using acupressure and meridian massage on increasing body weight in premature infants. Acupressure and meridian massage have a significant effect on weight gain in premature infants.

RELEVANCE TO CLINICAL PRACTICE: Nurses could be trained in acupressure and meridian massage techniques to provide more effective level of clinical care for premature infants.

THIS IS NOT A TYPICAL MASSAGE WORKSHOP!!

LOHAS Meridian Massage^TM Intensive Workshop is designed for the busy individuals. It helps them to save time and money.

The meridian interconnect deep within the body core and there are specific acupressure points along the meridians.  They can be envisioned as highways between the acupressure points in the body.  The common illness we have in our modern society can be frequently linked to the blockage of the meridians.

LOHAS Meridian Massage^TM helps to clear the blockage in our body and thus helps to strengthen our internal organs and balance the five elements of our body.  It is therefore able to help to relieve many common illness and pains such as migraine, flu, cold, fever, indigestion, PMS, constipation, acne, lethargic and skin problems.
