Anxiety: An Acupuncture perspective

Anxiety and depression are one of several afflictions which is a current pandemic in the modern world. Theories of Chinese medicine offer a variety of explanations to he causes of Anxiety. It can be caused by a blockage of the flow of energy in the body, which can be caused by living under severe stress or a predisposition to it. Whatever maybe the cause, Acupuncture can help.

I treated several people suffering from anxiety. After just a few treatments, their symptoms began to decrease. Symptoms such as palpitations, unable to control their emotions such as anger, fear or sadness became less intense. Symptoms are often worse at night and come in accord with insomnia. After several treatments, patients have reported a deep sleep and a sense of calm. Palpitations also begin to improve and they find themselves on the road to recovery.

Acupuncture is very effective in treating emotional disorders, especially which stem from blocking ones emotion and not being able to process them well. It can be used to strengthen the general health, so we are able to process our emotions and maintain a state of health.
