Using acupuncture, we prompt your body’s intelligence to restore balance.

 

Modern research offers insights into how acupuncture works from a physiological and biochemical standpoint:

Neurotransmitter Regulation: Acupuncture is thought to affect the central nervous system by modulating neurotransmitters such as serotonin, dopamine, and endorphins. These chemicals play a crucial role in mood regulation, pain perception, and other bodily functions.

Pain Modulation: Studies suggest that acupuncture stimulates the release of endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers, which can help alleviate pain. It also influences other neurochemicals that contribute to pain relief and the reduction of inflammation.

Circulatory System: Acupuncture may enhance blood circulation in the affected areas. Improved blood flow can aid in tissue repair and reduce inflammation, contributing to pain relief and overall health improvement.


Immune Response: Some research indicates that acupuncture can modulate the immune system by affecting the activity of immune cells and the production of cytokines, which are involved in inflammation and immune responses.

Autonomic Nervous System: Acupuncture may impact the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary bodily functions such as heart rate, digestion, and respiratory rate. This can lead to relaxation and stress reduction, benefiting conditions related to stress and anxiety.
