Description
CrossLinq® Small Acupressure Patches are ultra-thin, grid-shaped adhesive patches designed for precise placement on acupuncture points, trigger points, scar tissue and other localised areas of the body.
Manufactured in South Korea and used by practitioners around the world, CrossLinq patches provide gentle, continuous stimulation to the skin. They are commonly incorporated into acupuncture, acupressure, scar management, sports therapy, cosmetic applications and general wellbeing routines.
Many users appreciate CrossLinq as a needle-free way to stimulate selected points throughout the day. Once applied, the patches are discreet, comfortable to wear and can typically remain in place for several days without interfering with normal daily activities.
CrossLinq patches are often chosen by those looking for a practical alternative to acupuncture needles, allowing selected points to be stimulated without discomfort.
Why Choose Small CrossLinq Patches?
Measuring just 1.4 x 1.8 cm (0.55 x 0.71 in), Small CrossLinq patches are ideal for precise applications on smaller treatment areas, facial points and localised areas of tension.
The compact format allows accurate placement on delicate or hard-to-reach areas where larger patches may be less suitable. This makes the Small size particularly popular for facial applications, scar care and smaller joints.
Common Applications for Small CrossLinq Patches
The Small size is particularly suitable for:
- Facial acupuncture and acupressure points
- Forehead lines and frown lines
- Nasolabial folds
- Areas around the eyes and eyebrows
- Jaw tension and TMJ-related pressure points
- Acne-prone skin and occasional blemishes
- Recent and mature scar tissue
- Hands and fingers
- Wrists
- Feet and toes
- Ankles
- Abdominal acupuncture points
- Chest and breast-area acupuncture points
- Gluteal trigger points
- Small localised areas of tension or discomfort
If you are uncertain which size to select, a larger CrossLinq patch is often more suitable for broader treatment areas, larger joints or muscle groups.
How Can CrossLinq Support Your Routine?
CrossLinq patches are used by both practitioners and home users across a wide range of applications. Depending on the area being treated and the intended use, they are commonly incorporated into routines focused on:
- Scar management and improving the appearance of scar tissue
- Supporting skin recovery following blemishes or insect bites
- Facial wellbeing and cosmetic taping routines
- Fine expression lines, including frown lines and nasolabial folds
- Trigger points and muscle tension
- Localised areas of discomfort or restricted movement
- Acupuncture and acupressure point stimulation
- Lymphatic and recovery-focused applications
- Meridian-based techniques used in traditional acupuncture practice
How Does CrossLinq Work?
According to the CrossLinq method, the patches become electrostatically charged when removed from the backing paper. The skin contains thousands of receptors that continuously communicate with the body and respond to pressure, temperature and touch.
When applied to the desired location, CrossLinq provides gentle and continuous stimulation to the skin and underlying receptors. Practitioners believe this may help support the body’s natural recovery processes, encourage local circulation and promote overall balance and wellbeing.
Who Uses CrossLinq?
CrossLinq patches are used by physiotherapists, acupuncturists, massage therapists, chiropractors, osteopaths, sports therapists and other healthcare professionals. They are also suitable for experienced home users who are familiar with trigger points or acupuncture point locations.
For local areas of discomfort, scar management or cosmetic applications, many users apply the patches themselves. For acupuncture points, meridian treatments and advanced therapeutic applications, professional guidance is recommended.
How to Apply CrossLinq Correctly
For best results, use plastic tweezers when handling the patch. This allows precise placement and helps prevent unnecessary contact with the adhesive surface.
- Identify the point or area you wish to target.
- Hold the patch using plastic tweezers.
- Slowly move the patch across the selected area of skin.
- Apply the patch diagonally (approximately 45°) at the desired location.
- Press firmly to secure the patch.
Important Application Guidelines
- Apply CrossLinq directly to the selected area, trigger point, acupuncture point, scar or area of tension.
- Not every point shown in treatment charts requires treatment. Apply patches only to active or relevant points.
- Use only the number of patches required for the chosen application.
General Advice
- Rub the patch firmly after application to maximise adhesion.
- Apply only to clean, dry skin free from oils, creams or lotions.
- The patches are water-resistant and suitable for normal daily activities.
- CrossLinq patches can typically remain in place for several days.
- Replace after a maximum of one week.
- If a patch loosens naturally, replace it if desired.
- Remove immediately if skin irritation occurs.
