Why You Should Get Regular Acupuncture Treatments

I bet you did not know this about acupuncture. Its foundation is based on prevention. The essence of acupuncture is getting you into that parasympathetic state so your body can be reset, reboot, and rejuvenated so it can heal and perform optimally. We all need a tune-up sometimes and acupuncture is what tune-ups are all about.

Let’s look at how getting regular acupuncture treatments can help you stay happy and healthy.         

There are many ways acupuncture treatments can change a person’s life. One of the most noticeable is acupuncture can get you to look at your health from a completely different perspective. This could mean you might start taking a more in depth look at your health, which may allow you to veer away from some of the mainstream medical practices such as multiple pharmaceuticals. Many long-term acupuncture patients find they no longer need all the medications prescribed by their family physician, because the symptoms have been controlled using acupuncture.     

As stated above, acupuncture is great for prevention.

Because regular acupuncture treatments can balance hormones, regulate sleep, and boost immunity, there is a good chance you won’t need to rely those over-the-counter medications to function.          

What about relieving some of that extra stress we all deal with?

Yes, regular acupuncture treatments can keep that at bay too. Many people don’t equate being poked with tiny needles as a relaxation technique, but it truly is relaxing. Most of our patients actually fall asleep during their acupuncture sessions. And the effects can last for days or even weeks. So the next time you feel irritable and overwhelmed, come on in for a tune-up.            

Regular acupuncture treatments can help you save money.

What? It’s true. This goes back to the previous benefits. If you don’t need as many pharmaceuticals, you will ultimately save money. Also, conditions like stress, anxiety, fatigue and depression can keep you from going to work, possibly costing you several days of pay. But with regular acupuncture treatments, your moods can be more effectively managed and you won’t need to miss work as frequently.            

And the most popular reason to get regular acupuncture treatments is that it will help you remain pain free.

We all have aches and pains. But research has shown acupuncture is more effective than opioids for controlling things like arthritic pain in the joints. It is also be incorporated into hospital emergency rooms throughout the United States, so people don’t need as many pain medications. As a matter of fact, in Asia, acupuncture is sometimes used by itself during and after surgical procedures to treat pain.
