Acupuncture Works

Acupuncture works by stimulating the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals. Acupuncture also influences the autonomic nervous system (which controls bodily functions) and the release of chemicals that regulate blood flow and pressure, reduce inflammation, and calm the brain.

Acupuncture helps to address a variety of health conditions, including:

• Anxiety
• Arthritis
• Chronic pain (such as headaches, back pain, neck pain)
• Depression
• Insomnia
• Migraines
• Nausea
• Sciatica
• Sinus congestion
• Stress and anxiety
• Tinnitus
• Weight loss

Some people use acupuncture to promote fertility. It is also used to quit smoking and as a component of the treatment for other addictions.

Cosmetic acupuncture, also known as facial acupuncture, is used to improve the appearance of the skin.
