Unlike some other forms of medicine you may have already tried, acupuncture relieves symptoms by correcting the
root cause of the situation.
Acupuncture is the crux of mind-body medicine. While psychotherapy
and hypnotism focus on the mind, and western medicine concentrates on the body, acupuncture incorporates both the
mental and physical to heal the whole person by working on the energy within the body. The art of acupuncture,
along with its clinical principles, free the body’s energy from any previously binding and limiting forces
Acupuncture is based on a few core concepts: balance, harmony, prevention, and moderation. By correcting energetic imbalances,
pain is relieved, emotions are allowed to change, and balance is restored. When balance is restored to the body and mind,
one becomes unleashed from encumbering mental and physical constraints. This allows for greater ease in taking control of
one’s life and lifestyle. It is rare to find a person who is completely balanced. Ailments, such as depression, pain,
insomnia, infertility, and cancer, stem from systemic imbalances within the body.
For example, unwavering negative
emotions are a result of stagnant energy. Constant anger or sadness lead to an altered perception of life, wherein the depressed
often do not realize their state of mind, much less how to get out of it. Acupuncture works subconsciously, awakening the
power and memory of a healthy mind and body through the correction of the energetic flow, resulting in stability within. When
the ancient wisdom of the body remembers how to exist in a healthy state, it is empowered. The body’s memory is strong.
Incredible things can happen on the acupuncture table. When needles stimulate precise points on the body, energy is allowed
to circulate at the proper momentum and velocity. When the energy is able to flow its proper course, balance and wholeness
are restored, and there is a feeling of renewed energy!
