LAKEPORT – Experience increased energy levels, freedom of movement, pain reduction and improved sleep from Acupressure style bodywork and massage at the Wellness Center at Sutter Lakeside Hospital.

The Wellness Center is pleased to welcome acupressurist Richard Diwald to its Integrative Healing House team. Diwald’s specialty is acupressure that combines Jin Shin and Tui Na styles.

“My personal experience with the combination of Tui Na and Jin Shin acupressure is that it promotes a state of deep relaxation, enabling curative energies to work,” said Diwald.

The combination of styles uses fingertip pressure held on acupressure points mixed with a vigorous yet subtle Chinese massage that uses a variety of hand movements to increase blood circulation.

“The combination of light brush strokes, pressure point release and massage while fully clothed left me feeling completely relaxed and rejuvenated,” said a recent client.

Acupressure massage is an effective way to treat physical pain in a natural way that allows the body to heal itself. By releasing muscle tension and unblocking energy pathways, the body can restore its equilibrium and health.

Diwald is taking day, evening and weekend appointments at the Sutter Lakeside Hospital Integrative Healing House, located to the East of the main hospital building, adjacent to the Wellness Center.

Call 707-262-5171 to make an appointment.
