How acupuncture treatments work for Anxiety:
Anxiety can take over your life, making it difficult to work, sleep, enjoy regular activities and interfere with relationships. Living constantly on edge with a feeling of panic can also result in physical illness including gastrointestinal disorders and heart disease.
Anxiety disorders are the most common mental illness in America, affecting almost 20 percent of the population. One in 10 Americans suffer from depression; about half will also be diagnosed with an anxiety disorder.
Of those who are suffering, many turn to prescription medications for relief only to experience horrific side effects that can include liver damage, heart attacks, suicidal behavior, and a long list of others.
Fortunately, there is a natural option that works without side effects. Our clinic has helped many who suffered from this mental distress take control of their life through acupuncture.
According to Traditional Chinese Medicine, emotions become unbalanced whenever the circulation of energy and blood in the body is disrupted. If energy isn’t flowing properly, stress and anxiety often result.
When blood is deficient, anxiety can manifest in many ways. According to Traditional Chinese medical theory, blood is the material foundation of the mind and spirit. When the blood is flowing properly, the mind is well-anchored; you’ll naturally feel more grounded and secure.

- Acupuncture promotes a deep state of relaxation resulting in true healing for the body, mind and spirit.
- Treatments have a stabilizing effect on the body’s central nervous system and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis.
- By inserting sterile needles into different acupuncture points, natural chemicals in the body are released allowing for a deep state of relaxation, helping the body become normalized over time.
- Acupuncture can detect energy blockages, the health of the organs and which nutrients may be lacking to restore total health.
Studies around the globe have found acupuncture can be as effective as other treatments at relieving anxiety. One study found 65% of patients diagnosed with anxiety reported acupuncture significantly helped to relieve their symptoms.
