First seen Jan 02, 2026 · Last updated May 22, 2026 · Updated 22 times
Summary
This study looked at whether self-acupressure—applying gentle pressure to specific points on the body—can reduce joint pain and stiffness caused by aromatase inhibitor therapy in postmenopausal women with breast cancer. Fifty participants learned to do acupressure at home and reported their pain levels over 12 weeks. The goal was to see if this simple, needle-free technique could improve daily comfort and quality of life.
