What does an acupressure certificate course teach?
An acupressure certificate course provides practical knowledge on the application of traditional Chinese medicine (TCM). The exact content can vary depending on the training provider and type of course - from basic beginners' courses to in-depth continuing education, further training or diploma courses.
Typical contents of an acupressure course are:
- Introduction to the basics of TCM and its philosophical concepts
- Learning the five phases of change and their significance in energetic balance
- Knowledge of the 14 meridians and around 55 central acupoints
- Methods of energetic diagnosis, such as pulse, tongue or facial analysis

- In-depth modules or specializations depending on interests and career goals
Beginners' courses offer a solid introduction to the basic principles of acupressure and provide initial practical experience. Advanced courses and special modules are aimed at people with previous knowledge who wish to expand their skills or gain further qualifications. Diploma courses offer comprehensive, certified training with in-depth content.
As each school determines its own learning content, the specific scope and focus may vary. It is recommended that you clarify the desired content directly with the respective education provider.

What is an acupressure mat? What are acupressure points?
The acupressure mat (needle mat) stimulates the pressure points of the body (acupressure points). This has a beneficial effect on the entire body and can help to alleviate various complaints such as headaches (acupressure headaches), back pain or sleep disorders. The pressure of the needles on the skin stimulates the body to produce endorphins (hormones that have a pain-relieving effect). An alternative aid is the acupressure pen, which is specially designed for massages and acupressure.
What are the requirements for acupressure training?
The following requirements are placed on acupressure training:
- Completed three-year basic vocational training or technical secondary school certificate or vocational, technical or high school diploma or equivalent qualification
- Empathy
- Enjoy working with different people, including touching, active communication and support
- Willingness to develop personally and professionally
