How can acupuncture help with anxiety and aid relaxation in Nonsuch?
Managing anxiety and stress can be hard and talking therapies tend to take a long time to see results. Whether you are suffering from depression, anxiety, stress, or a related condition in Sutton or Nonsuch, acupuncture has been proven to reduce the level of severity by acting on the areas of the brain known to reduce sensitivity to stress. The area of the brain known to be responsible for anxiety and worry is deactivated.
Ancient Chinese medicine labels an energy force called ‘Qi’ that regulates the overall health of the body. When it moves smoothly through pathways known as meridians, this results in good health. However, issues like stress, a change in environment, poor nutrition, and other factors can lead to the disruption of Qi. The insertion of sterile needles along the skin at strategic pressure points balances the flow of energy.
Acupuncture works by restoring the balance of Qi, and there is growing evidence that it helps with anxiety, depression, and mental health conditions.
Types of anxiety and stress that acupuncture can help with include:
- Death anxiety
- Panic attacks
- Social anxiety
- Low self-esteem
- Postnatal depression
- Burn out
- Bereavement and loss
