Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine
used to balance the body’s flow of energy—known as chi—through the placement of
tiny needles into the skin at specific points. Stimulation of these points
activates your natural healing response.
1. You stress less.
We all
strive to maintain a healthy balance with stress. As a wellness coach, I find
stress management to be one of the most sought-after wellness goals of my
clients. So how exactly could painless needles cause you to relax and eliminate
worry from life? Acupuncture not only decreases anxiety and worry but changes
the body’s response to stress with resiliency. Acupuncture addresses the
physical and emotional body as well as the mind. It’s a tool you can use in
self-care and provides another option to thrive.
2. You sleep more.
We all
feel restored by getting enough rest. But what if your mind doesn’t stop even
after you hit the pillow? With high levels of stress, over 60 million Americans
struggle with insomnia. Acupuncture uses an interconnected approach. When one
part of the body is strained it affects the overall essence of the body and can
result in emotions such as anxiety, sleeplessness, worry, and depression. We
may be unable to change our genetic disposition, but we are able to address
those areas where there’s a systematic weakness or challenge.
3. You radiate beauty.
Acupuncture
not only offers internal health but results in outward beauty benefits.
Cosmetically, acupuncture facial treatments target acne, puffiness, dullness,
and wrinkles by improving skin elasticity, texture, and complexion. Acupuncture
balances all body systems, which includes our lymphatic and circulatory
systems.
4. You address the cause.
Issues
such as pain, decreased immune response, thyroid imbalance, and low energy
levels can be treated by acupuncture. The whole-body approach moves beyond the
ailment to address the root cause and offer systematic healing.
5. You create lasting change.
During
a personalized acupuncture treatment, your practitioner not only addresses the
root cause of imbalances in your body but offers lifestyle guidance (nutrition,
sleep, activity, stress) for consistent and realistic behavior changes and a
future of wellbeing. |
