Acupuncture is a healing system that restores and maintains health by stimulating specific points on the body to promote the healthy circulation of Qi and blood, which then translates to disease prevention, pain control, and increased life expectancy. It can be an effective form of preventive medicine, with its efficacy at relieving symptoms, treating specific disorders, and helping reduce complications and recurrence of diseases.
Eases pain
Patients struggling with joint or muscle pain will experience a significant change in their physical conditions after several consecutive acupuncture sessions because it uniquely activates the release of natural pain-relieving substances and anti-inflammatory mechanisms.
Enhances mood
Chronic stress is often an overlooked barrier to optimal health. Acupuncture stimulates the central nervous system, balances the body and mind, and triggers the release of endorphins, enhancing mood and bringing about a general sense of well-being.
Boosts the immune system
Acupuncture strengthens a weakened immune system by increasing red blood cell, white blood cell count, and T-cell count, which helps to boost immunity against immune-related illnesses.
Improves fertility
Acupuncture regulates hormones, increases insulin sensitivity, promotes blood flow to the ovaries, and promotes ovulation. These mechanisms impact ovulation and are especially helpful in women who don't ovulate due to hormone imbalances.
Fastens recovery from chemotherapy
Studies have proven that acupuncture helps cancer patients mitigate the side effects of chemotherapy, boosts their immunity, and quickens their recovery after undergoing chemotherapy sessions.
