This imbalance may be caused by an accident, overuse, or even an emotional reaction to a stressful event.
By placing needles at particular points along the energy pathways (meridians), the balance is restored and pain is relieved ... immediately.
Depending on the cause and how long you have had the pain, the imbalance may take a series of treatments to completely resolve.
With a proper treatment plan, your pain or discomfort will be relieved and normal function restored so that you may feel alive in your body again.
You will feel immediate relief from:
The force of life's challenges, whether they be physical, mental, emotional, or spiritual, all contribute to stress in the body.
Our nervous systems can only take so much.
When we talk about balancing the energy in the body, one major area of focus is the Autonomic Nervous System (ANS). The ANS reacts to perceived stress by switching between a "fight or flight" response and a "rest and digest" response.
Fight or Flight - If you meet a lion in the jungle, you want your body to recalibrate so that you can fight with more strength than you've ever had or run faster, farther, and longer than you'd ever thought you could.
And you don't want to get hungry along the way.
Rest and Digest - After you're done with that extremely stressful situation, you want to relax, eat a meal, digest (think about digestion as manufacturing Qi & Blood from the raw material of food), sleep and rejuvenate.
Unfortunately, Fight or Flight is happening when you're at work, staring at a computer under a deadline. You're not running or physically fighting.
The ANS may not switch properly back to Rest and Digest, leaving you feeling "wired and tired" or just simply exhausted.
Eventually, the body starts to shut down and deep fatigue sets in.
Acupuncture has the effect of quickly switching the body into "rest and digest," so that you immediately feel calmer and more "in your body." Over time, acupuncture will train the body to do this itself.
Somatic Acupuncture is a method that finds the Fight or Flight triggers, helps you understand how you respond to stressful situations and allows for this response to be "reprogrammed."
The result is that you feel calmer and more self-aware during these situations, allowing more freedom to choose how you would like to respond.
