What is the expected outcome of utilizing pressure point control techniques?

Utilizing pressure point control techniques aims to facilitate compliance without causing injury. This approach is grounded in the principles of de-escalation and control, which prioritize the safety and wellbeing of both the subject and the officer. By applying pressure points, instructors teach practitioners how to influence a subject's behavior effectively, encouraging compliance through pain compliance or discomfort while minimizing the risk of harm.

The emphasis is on control and submission rather than punishment, which contributes to maintaining order in conflict situations without resorting to unnecessarily aggressive tactics. This results in better outcomes for both law enforcement personnel and individuals being managed.
