Pressure points are places on the human body where a small amount of pressure can be applied to bring about dramatic effects. An Oriental doctor or
homeopathic
remedy devotee might say that they are places where
nerves
,
veins
or
chi
bundle up under the skin, subjecting them to manipulation. Digging your thumb into a pressure point - according to the literature - can cause
paralysis
,
pain
or relaxation, or maybe even unclog your sinuses or relieve a headache. I learned a few of the "ouch" variety when I was babysitting this pack of
satan-spawned mid schoolers
. The hollow of the collarbone, a few places under the upper arm, under the jaw, and behind the hip bone. These are
100% guaranteed
to convince any little
mutant
to stop doing whatever he or she was doing and pay attention.

Pressure points used in
martial arts
are based on the principles of
traditional Chinese medicine
. Most points are the same as the ones used in
acupuncture
, but some aren't. The pressure points are located on meridians along which
chi
flows. By applying the
five element theory
on these points one can regulate the body. The angle and amount of force are also important and knowledge of the location of the pressure point isn't enough itself.
