How Acupuncture Helps Control Anxiety or Depression?

Apart from curing pain,acupuncture is one of the natural solutions to treat depression and anxiety.

It is an age-old traditional Chinese medication wherein various points in your body are stimulated to channelize the correct flow of energy (Qi) through different channels called meridians. Only when the flow of energy is free from any sort of blockages, a person can be called healthy and energized.

Here, we discuss some of the main causes of anxiety and let you know how acupuncture alleviates its effects.

Causes of Anxiety and Depression

Anxiety and depression are two majorly found mental disorders. A lot of factors like stress, a person’s personality, thinking style,behaviour,chemical imbalance in thebrain, etc. causes anxiety and depression. Acupuncturistsin Sydney offer natural solutions like acupuncture to cure this problem. In acupuncture treatment, there are typically five emotions which have a direct physiological effect on the body; they are fear, anger, happiness, worry and grief. Each of these emotions is represented by five different elements namely, water, wood, fire, earth and metal.

How Acupuncture Helps?

Acupuncture cures the problem of anxiety and depression by restoring the Qi balance and the overall health of the person. This is done by inserting needles into the patient’s body at specific points which are half a millimeter far from the nerves. Depending on the point where the needle is pricked, this treatment induces the nervous system to release endorphins throughout the body, which isa pain-killingchemical.

It gives the natural ability to the patient’s body to heal on its own by stimulating a specific part of the patient’s brain which directly controls the emotions. Acupuncture not only cures various illnesses but it also helps to maintain the emotional balance of a person. Apart from this, acupuncture improves blood circulation in the body.  It helps to lower the blood pressure, heart rate and relaxes the muscles. It unblocks all the restrictive paths in the free flow of energy which relieves a person from the symptoms and causes of anxiety, depression or stress.
