How to use the Acupressure roller
This roller is most useful for pressing the points on the sides of the fingers, front and back of the fingers and any other point where you will require pressure over a larger area. I use it regularly to role it on the sides of the fingers and on the front of the fingers. There are lots of nerve endings on the side of the fingers and on the finger webbing. Rolling on the side of the fingers is good for soothing the nerves. Each finger has various points which gets pressed when we use the roller.
