Study and practice. Acupressure, compared to acupuncture, is far safer and easier to learn the basics. There are many great resources like books and online courses to get you started. Acupuncture and acupressure points follow along pathways on the body called meridians. You can easily find charts online of the meridian pathways. There are many acupressure points in the body, so most people start out by learning the well-known and frequently used acupressure points first and move on from there. Start by learning their locations and then the issues they correspond with and may help resolve. Remember, acupressure points are not always in the area of the symptoms or problems. So for example, an acupressure point for a headache can be located in the hand.
