Acupressure

Acupressure

Duties and Responsibilities: Basically, acupuncturists are alternative who are trained to treat illnesses through inserting needles at certain points of body. Acupressure is an important part of traditional Chinese medicine that also has other necessary segments for providing a complete treatment.

Salary: Experience in any career is the key to success. Similarly, if an acupuncturist has experience in internal Chinese Martial Arts, for instance. The yearly income earned by an acupuncturist in the United States is $75,000, as of 2012.

Education: In almost every school in the US, acupuncture studies begin at master’s level where students could opt for a major or concentration in acupressure. A master’s degree program is of 3 to 4 years which includes assessment procedures and therapeutic treatment of illnesses. 

I would not like to work on that type of career because I think its hard to be massaging people on thei weak points.

   Reflection: people who study this put time in it because what they do is really hard. And it is also b

trying hard at school

This year i have put myself to do really great in school. In all my classes i will try to get all A'S and B'S. I will try not to fail any of my classes including math. So this year i will try to make everyone proud of me.

. Created from the headings and subheadings in the reading

. From written notes

. Discussed in class

. Provided at the ends of chapters

. Given on the study guide (if one is provided)

. That you have about the topic

*for example, if a major heading or subheading is” phase of the moon” then ask yourself, what are the phases of the moon?

3) Read: Read assigned reading and your written notes, and look for answers to your study questions. Headings and subheadings should help guide your search. Keep an eye out for other information to add to your list of questions. Reflect on what you read, and connect new material to what you already know.
