Acupuncture treatments are fine tuned to a particular individual’s reaction to stress. The emotional reaction is also individualized by Acupuncture treatment. For some it’s anxiety while for others it’s fear or irritability. Each of those emotions can be addressed specifically such that people don’t react as strongly.
People report they feel more balanced.
- They can handle the stress more effectively.
- Stress rolls off of them more easily.
- They feel lighter in spirit.
- Life doesn’t feel as burdensome.
Acupuncture for Anxiety
For those with anxiety, Acupuncture treatments can reduce anxiety to an extent comparable or better than medications but without side effects such as grogginess. With continued treatment, the nervous system settles down. Physical symptoms such as palpitations, chest tightness or difficult breathing are reduced or eliminated in many cases.
Acupuncture for Panic Disorder
Acupuncture can be very effective for the reduction, if not the elimination of panic attacks. Panic Attacks are an example of a strong physiologic response coupled with intense anxiety. They are often debilitating for those that suffer with them.
Acupuncture addresses both the anxiety and the physical symptoms of panic attacks. Patients report they are not debilitated anymore and they are able to get back to living their lives more fully.
If stress, anxiety or panic attacks are wearing you down, Acupuncture can offer real relief with no side effects. Call for a free consultation and find out whether it is right for you.
Initial Consultation
In the Initial Visit and Treatment, a Health History Questionnaire is filled out. This includes all past illnesses and symptoms as well as current. An evaluation of current Vitamins, Herbs, Supplements, Diet and Lifestyle recommendations is given. The Pulse and Tongue are read which is an important aspect of Chinese Diagnosis.
What You Can Expect
Results can often be seen with one treatment but three or more treatments are advised to determine the effectiveness. Any changes within 1 to 3 days after a treatment can be directly attributed to Acupuncture provided there have been no other types of treatment.
