Yes, you can pursue acupressure and physiotherapy simultaneously, but it requires careful planning and time management. 

Acupressure is a form of traditional Chinese medicine that focuses on applying pressure to specific points on the body to promote healing and balance, while Physiotherapy involves the use of physical techniques to improve movement and function. 

Balancing them will depend on your ability to manage your schedule effectively and meet the requirements of each program.
