Acupuncture massage is an ancient Chinese healing technique that has been used for centuries to relieve pain and stress. The practice involves inserting thin needles into the skin at specific points on the body. This stimulation of the body’s nervous system is thought to help relieve pain, improve blood flow, and reduce stress.
It is a safe and effective treatment for various conditions, including headaches, neck pain, back pain, and stress. The treatment is often used in combination with other therapies, such as cupping and acupressure.
If you are looking for a natural way to relieve stress and pain, then this massage may be right for you.
How Does Acupuncture Work?
Chinese medicine believes that energy flows through pathways in the body known as meridians. When there is an imbalance in these meridians, illness can occur. Acupuncture restores balance by stimulating specific points on the body using fine needles inserted into these points, which release endorphins, the body’s natural painkillers, into the bloodstream. Acupuncture also increases circulation at these points, which stimulates healing and improves immune function by increasing oxygen levels in tissues throughout your body.
It Improves Sleep.
Many people struggle with insomnia and other sleep disorders. Acupuncture treatment can help you relax so that you get a better night’s sleep. The needles stimulate the flow of energy through your body and mind, improving your ability to fall asleep and stay asleep throughout the night.
Improves Fertility.
Acupuncture may help increase fertility and reduce side effects associated with assisted reproductive technology (ART). A study published in 2014 found that women who received acupuncture before undergoing ART had higher pregnancy rates than those who didn’t receive this therapy. Another study found that when acupuncture was combined with ART, patients experienced fewer complications during treatment.
Relieves Pain
Acupuncture is often used as a way to relieve chronic pain caused by arthritis or other conditions such as fibromyalgia or carpal tunnel syndrome. One study found that patients with chronic low back pain reported significant reductions in their symptoms after undergoing acupuncture treatments twice weekly for three months. The findings suggest that acupuncture may work by increasing the release of endorphins, which block pain signals from reaching the brain.
Reduces Stress and Anxiety.
Stress is one of the leading causes of anxiety disorders in America today. Acupuncture massage relieves stress by balancing your nervous system so that it doesn’t overreact to life’s everyday challenges. This helps reduce feelings of anxiety while restoring balance to your mind and body as well as your overall health condition.
