Stress Relief
My first time patients are sometimes skeptical that they could relax enough during acupuncture to get into a deep relaxed state or fall asleep. But, 9 out of 10 people (at least) do both, consistently.
Whether they came to de-stress and unwind or for another reason, acupuncture helps them relax. Acupuncture is a great way to release pent up tension and stress which can end up being the underlying cause of other disease.
I often hear patients exclaim with enthusiasm that their treatments give them their favorite sleep and rest time of the week. In our busy lifestyle, it is important to nurture oneself in this way. Many other ailments are a manifestation of stress and lack of rest. We often feel pressured to be productive all the time and so skip out on the leisure time which has necessary health benefits! Acupuncture can help you create the space to let go, heal, and surrender.
If you want to release stress and increase your overall energy levels, acupuncture (and in some cases in combination with herbs) is a wonderful way to de-stress, relax and rejuvenate.
