Acupuncture has been shown to be effective at addressing all kinds of digestive issues, from GERD to IBS. It does this through its effects on the smooth muscle throughout the digestive tract, as well as by regulating the nervous and circulatory systems, which play a major role in the digestive process.

Acupuncture stimulates and resets soft tissue and muscle fibers, addressing the root causes of pain and speeding healing times from injuries or overuse. This can help treat sprains, strains, migraines, chronic pain, and menstrual cramps. It can also be an essential resource for recovery during physical training.

Because of its strong effects on the parts of the body that produce and regulate hormones, acupuncture is highly effective at treating a variety of issues related to hormone imbalance, including PCOS, irregular menstruation, PMS, mood disorders like anxiety and depression, fertility and insomnia.

The application of acupuncture stimulates the nervous system in specific ways to signal other system to operate differently, bringing you back into balance. Because of its calming effects on the nervous system, many patients fall asleep during their acupuncture treatment.

The lymph nodes, part of the immune system, are located very close to the skin and rely on health fluid and blood circulation to function. Every time acupuncture is applied, it also directly stimulates the immune system to respond. This makes acupuncture effective at relieving cold symptoms, preventing frequent illness, and even addressing autoimmune disorders.

How your blood and fluids circulate in your body makes a big impact on your health. Poor circulation can lead to pain, frequent illness, and poor temperature regulation. Acupuncture promotes healthy circulation throughout the body, speeding healing, alleviating pain, and increasing relaxation and digestive function.
