It seems to be a common thread in our fast paced society: stress. And stress related disorders are the bane of modern life. 

Finding ways to minimize stress is the first step.  Once you've made some lifestyle changes to reduce your overall stress levels, then there are more INTERNAL ways to maintain a healthy state of mind.  One such  method  of stress reduction  is  having regular acupuncture treatments.

Acupuncture works as a wonderfully effective way to help reduce your stress response and to maintain a feeling of well-being. My patients have experienced amazing results from even a few treatments.

One of the great things that those little needles achieve is a normal sense of flow within the body.  When stressed, our bodies have many ways of coping without our doing anything: tense muscles, agitiation, digestive issues, fatigue, headaches, joint pain.  And the worst part is that if unchecked, certain chronic illnesses arise as well.

Acupuncture is said to release endorphins, or at least the endorphin response, which makes us feel better.  Then, it releases our hold on stagnant energy.  If something is built up and stuck, then the flow is obstructed.  If the flow is obstructed, then equillibrium cannot be achieved. 

Acupuncture is a natural release, and if you are experiencing an inordinate amount of stress in your life, I highly recommend it.  Because you don't want that little grumbling in your tummy to turn into something worse.  Release stress and get healthy!
