| Research Abstract |
The current study was conducted to evaluate the effects of acupressure at two meridian points (KI1 and KI3) that have an effect on chilliness. The subjects of this experimental study were 11 adult women. As effects of acupressure, there were significant temporal changes in pulse rate, skin surface and deep temperature, blood flow volume, and the score for sensation of warmth and comfort. Acupressure at two points is a safe and effective method for easing the displeasure of the cold.
