Depression & Anxiety
Traditional Chinese Medicine for Depression & Anxiety
Acupuncture’s assistance in reducing anxiety is similar to how it can limit stress. Acupuncture reduces the secretion of hormones that our bodies generate in reaction to stressful situations, helping to naturally balance our bodies out.
As an imbalance of such hormones contributes to that overwhelming sensation leading to panic attacks or anxiety, the treatment’s ability to bring balance also reduces the negative impact.
Studies show that just eight sessions of acupuncture have lead to practitioners reporting their patients feel more relaxed and experience a decrease in anxiety attacks.
Though acupuncture may not alleviate all aspects of anxiety in each patient, it can greatly reduce the harshest effects that depression and anxiety have on the body and mind.
