You've either got the wrong location for the pressure point, or you're not doing it correctly. Pressure points are defined by the point where the artery passes over the bone, and can therefore be "squeezed off" to stop blood flow. If you're not feeling the bone, then you're pressing in the wrong direction, or in the wrong location. You should reposition your hand so that you feel the bone under the muscle, and apply the pressure again.
