What it does for you.

 

Improves Circulation

Acupuncture promotes blood flow to areas in the body that are stimulated.

Reduces Pain

Increases the release of endorphins and enkephalins which are the body’s innate painkillers.

Promotes Healing

Acupuncture stimulates the parasympathetic nervous system that allows the body to rest and repair itself. It is only in this state that the body will be able to heal.

Anti-Inflammatory

Reduces pro-inflammatory markers or proteins in the body.

Balances Hormones

Influences the body’s biochemical response via the nervous system.
