How Does Acupuncture Improve Mental Health?

​Acupuncture provides a drug-free alternative, or can work alongside your current prescription medications to improve relief from chronic stress, anxiety, depression, and other mental health concerns. Acupuncture stimulates the release of the body’s natural "feel good" neurotransmitters and engages the parasympathetic nervous system to help quiet the mind and invoke a sustained feeling of deep relaxation and wellbeing. With the high demands of modern living, stress and schedules become unmanageable and many patients describe feeling stuck in a constant state of “fight or flight” or hypervigilance. By calming down the sympathetic response, regular acupuncture sessions can help increase resilience and retrain the nervous system to respond differently to stress. Acupuncture can also help patients gently process and let go of grief and trauma that might be trapped in the body. Herbal formulas and supplements can also help boost vitality as well as address nutrient deficiencies, metabolic and gut issues, or hormonal imbalances that might be contributing to low energy and mood. With regular acupuncture treatments, as mental health symptoms improve, patients often also experience an improvement in other areas like sleep, chronic pain, headaches, TMJ, and digestive issues. It’s no surprise that the World Health Organization now promotes acupuncture for over 100 different conditions, including depression and anxiety.
