Are you in need of a mood boost? From everyday stress relief to depression or anxiety. Did you know acupuncture stimulates the release of serotonin in the brain? This is an important hormone for stabilizing moods. Serotonin is the “feel-good” hormone and it can also increase your ability to concentrate. Ever find yourself distracted, with repeated thoughts or hard to focus at work or school? If so, acupuncture can help you by stimulating points that allow your body to release certain brain chemicals that increase concentration. Acupuncture is an effective way to manage and calm stress as well as ease anxiety. Emotional stability is a major key to ensure a state of balance in the body and clarity of mind. Some patients even fall asleep during an acupuncture treatment as they are incredibly relaxed. Quality sleep is very important and many patients achieve deeper sleep for several days after treatments. By placing needles at specific points on the body, melatonin flow is naturally encouraged. Are you ready to feel the benefits of acupuncture? Come in for a relaxing experience of acupuncture and if necessary, cupping is included as well!
