Way too general and inaccurate. This encourages fear about touching women during pregnancy. If you are going to make a video, please get more specific about the points. Gentle touch and acupressure even to LI 4 and SP6, (the only two to have real concern about) is not going to start labor; Even when using focused intentional work, it will take multiple, regular sessions to have enough effect to just possibly shift a baby and mom into labor if they were not already ready to do that.
