What Acupuncture Can Treat?
Acupuncture treat both, acute and chronic conditions. It can help to prevent acute conditions from becoming chronic and help to improve or completely resolve chronic complaints. For pain management acupuncture reduces inflammation, enhances immunity and promotes healing.
INFERTILITY
Infertility may be caused by a number of biological and external factors, like organ imbalance, weak constitution, and life style in both partners. Acupuncture, frequently combined with herbal medicine, has been used for centuries to treat some causes of infertility. Additionally, it is shown that acupuncture can increase blood flow to the endometrium, helping to facilitate a thick, rich lining. Also, acupuncture and herbs are very effective for treating a number of underlying conditions that may affect fertility, for example, irregular menstrual cycles, hormonal imbalances, pelvic infections, and stress.
WEIGHT LOSS
Acupuncture is an effective adjunction therapy that makes it easier to lose and maintain a healthy weight, if the patient is willing to change their life style. acupuncture needles are inserted into specific point on the body and in the ear releasing endorphins which have a calming and relaxing effect that makes it easier to deal with stress, frustration and anxiety that can trigger overeating and bingeing on fattening foods. Also endorphins affect the digestive and hormonal system so acupuncture can help rebalance the organ systems that are running too fast or too slow the metabolism and the will power.
DEPRESSION
Depression affects 121 million people worldwide. Prolonged feelings of sadness and hopelessness can greatly affect a person’s quality of life. Acupuncture can not only treat depression but it can help address the root causes safely and naturally. When somebody is suffereing from depression it means that the person’s Qi (pronounces “chee”) is stagnant. While treating depression acupuncturists like to focus on balancing and activating the Qi by manipulating certain points on the body. Some physical symptoms of depression are extreme tiredness, lack of motivation and feeling cold.
INSOMNIA
Insomnia is very common is patients whose life is subject to large amounts of stress. The length of sleep we need changes according to age and most of the time it gradually decreases as we get older. Acupuncturists will alwasy take age into account when determining if the patient’s sleep is adequate. When patients have difficulty falling asleep along with dizziness and blurry vision it is believed that they may have a liver-blood deficiency. When patients wake up frequently over night and have excessive dreams together with sweats and palpitations it may be a heart and kidney-yin deficiency.
What Does Acupuncture Feel Like?
Acupuncture needles are disposable, metallic, solid, and hair-thin. People experience acupuncture differently, but most feel no or minimal pain as the needles are inserted. Some people are energized by treatment, while others feel relaxed.
