Accupressure massage to induce labor?

Has anyone tried this? What was your experience?
I am trying to avoid being induced, IVs, and being immobilized during labor.... so I have to try to start things up this weekend.

I haven't tried this but when I was having issues, I spoke to a massage therapist who suggested that I try this if my baby is not born by the EDD.

How are you doing Julz?

I'm doing OK. I actually feel GREAT now that I am working from home. But knowing that I will be induced on Tuesday or Thursday is making me anxious!
