Surprising Benefits of Acupuncture You Didn’t Know About



Acupuncture is a traditional medicine that is always preferred by people for pain relief only. However, you will be surprised to know that it is also associated with treating insomnia, stress, anxiety relief, energy restoration, and other benefits. 


Want to know how? Let us break it down for you!


5 Unexpected Benefits You Will Get from Acupuncture 


1. Chronic Pain Relief 


Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese healing technique that started around the Han dynasty and still survives gloriously. It uses needles to stimulate the acupressure points of the human body and reduce pain. 


Chronic issues cured with acupuncture are- 

  • Joint pains

  • Gouts

  • Back pain

  • Fatigue

  • Neck paint 

  • Migraines

Instead of drugs, opioids, or other medications, acupuncture relaxes your tensed muscles and stimulates natural opioids in your body to relieve chronic pains. 


2. Treats Your Arthritis


Arthritis causes severe joint inflammation and pain and makes your regular movements difficult. We all are trapped in our modern, sedentary lifestyle in a way that restricts us from regular exercise, having healthy food, or practicing mindfulness. These trigger early arthritis during the 30s or 40s. 


What can we do about this? 


As a shamanic healer and a professional acupuncturist in Acupuncture Wellness Center San Diego, I suggest giving acupuncture a try before diving into the extremes like surgeries, chiropractor sessions, or strong medications. You will see unbelievable results with your sciatica or arthritis issues of any kind or stage with a few weeks of therapy. It will slow down your inflammation. 


3. Helps with Insomnia 


In today’s fast-paced world, insomnia due to regular stress has become a common ailment. Acupuncture solves your insomnia issues naturally and effectively by stimulating the nervous system through acupressure points. 


Our shamanic acupuncture sessions with sound healing will help reduce your cortisol (stress hormone) levels, enhance melatonin secretion (sleep hormone), and improve the quality of your sleep. It will also increase the secretion of dopamine, serotonin, and other neurotransmitters with increased blood circulation and better relaxation. 


4. Restores “Qi” Balance 


“Qi” is a Taoist medicinal concept that simply means “Vital Life Force” flowing through our blood and other elements. Qi is thought to be flown through our body’s 12 meridians or the superhighways from where energy channels in different parts of our body. 


If our qi flow is stagnated or not well-balanced, we tend to have many physical issues like numbness, pain, or even organ defects with immunity issues. Acupuncture will clear your qi flow by unblocking stagnated meridians, balancing your energy, and promoting your natural healing process. 


5. Gets Rid of Stress or Anxiety 


Stress and anxiety go hand in hand and affect our daily lifestyle. Even if we try, we cannot easily escape our regular work pressure, health issues, financial tension, relationship stresses, and other concerns. 


Long-term stresses can cause your mind to have severe trauma or chronic anxiety issues. So, let us help you get rid of them. Our acupuncture can help stimulate your nervous system to release the biochemicals to provide a sense of calm and relaxation.
