Ease your Anxiety and Depression
with Acupuncture
Did you know acupuncture can reduce stress by restoring your body’s natural hormonal equilibrium? This is safe, and time-tested healing approach that leaves out synthetic medications with potential harmful side effects.
“We conclude that acupuncture was efficient to attenuate the psychological distress…”
In a 2010 study published in the journal Neuroscience Letters, researchers looked at the effect of acupuncture on psychological distress, including depression, anxiety and stress. Researchers measured patient-reported anxiety levels before and after treatments. They also cultured blood cells from the patients to measure the density of T-cells, a type of white blood cell related to immune function and healing, before and after treatments. Patients’ anxiety scores were significantly lower after the acupuncture treatments, and the proliferation of T-cells increased after the treatments.
Acupuncture treatment addresses the root cause(s) of your anxiety, depression, and stress rather than just masking your symptoms. At our KFAHM clinic, we develop treatment plans that are unique to each patient because every individual has a unique body constitution, health history and root cause(s) behind their psychological distress.
