Why Many Use Acupuncture to Balance Mental and Emotional Pain

Published on

There is no denying the intense pain that most people have felt emotionally, mentally, and physically at some point. Life was never meant to be easy, but rather challenging in more ways than not. How we choose to balance the ebbs and flows of stressful situations throughout life is all that we can be in full control of.

Acupuncture has been used by millions of people who suffer from mental health disorders or even find themselves in deep emotional wreckage due to grief, low self-esteem, and financial strain, to name a few.

There has been no cure-all for any type of pain we feel within the confines of our body or mind. It’s up to you to find what works for you and does the least potential harm to your body and mind.

Research shows that acupuncture can be effective at combating stress. According to a report from HealthCMI researchers discovered that "electroacupuncture prevents elevations of the HPA (hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis) hormones minutes after exposure to painful cold stress.”

In simple terms, the specific hormones released, that give you the stressed-out feeling, are reduced by acupuncture.

It is not uncommon for people to express how relaxed and calm they feel after their acupuncture sessions. The benefits of acupuncture last beyond just during the actual treatment time.

In fact, the stress reducing effects were shown to continue up to four days after the acupuncture treatment.

“This place has changed my life. I was one of the skeptical ones until I tried it myself. My experience has been remarkable. I truly am so grateful for what my acupuncturist has done for me. I would recommend trying acupuncture treatment for anyone who has been suffering from pain. I went years dealing with back pain, anxiety, and PTSD from an accident I was in but now I finally can live my life again knowing I have this relief. Thank you to Modern Acupuncture for helping me get my life back.” - Marlene (CA)
