Anthony Medical & Chiropractic Center

With all of the advancements in modern medicine, people often forget or ignore the benefits of acupuncture. However, acupuncture is one of only a few healthcare options that has a history encompassing a time frame extending back before 10,000 BC. Over that time, acupuncture has helped millions of people recover from hundreds of sicknesses and heal in a non-invasive, natural way. In fact, the World Health Organization recently released a document describing the many benefits of acupuncture, revealing that this approach to health care has been proven to help with over 28 conditions.

How Acupuncture Promotes Healing

The success of acupuncture is largely tied to its unique approach to healing. Traditionally, acupuncture has focused on restoring the flow of the body’s vital substances which allows the body to heal itself. To accomplish this, acupuncturists focus on creating a balance between the bodies organ systems so that it can function properly. Ancient Chinese medical practitioners labeled one of the body’s vital substances as Qi (chee). Qi is what allows a person to function and is responsible for determining a person’s health state.

How Will Acupuncture Work?

While the study of acupuncture is complex, practitioners focus on stabilizing the pathways of the Qi which flows through various vessels in the body. It is believed that when these vessels become unbalanced, the cells, organs, and tissues within the body are deprived of their necessary nutrition and other vital substances. Unless these disruptions are corrected in a timely matter, the affected area of the body often becomes diseased or even dies. Conversely, if these vessels are opened up and remain open, normal function in the body can be restored. In fact, many patients report a reduction or absence of symptoms such as pain, tiredness, and nausea immediately upon receiving their first acupuncture treatment.

While the Western doctor views the human body mechanically as a machine that needs to be fixed, the Eastern doctor views the human body as a dynamic organism that is capable of thriving when it is in a balanced state. Thus the Western doctor is like a mechanic and the Eastern doctor is like a farmer. Plants cannot be made to grow, rather the correct environment is created so the plants can thrive.

Can acupuncture cure diabetes?

Can acupuncture help with nerve damage?

Acupuncture needles are inserted into your body’s pressure points to stimulate the nervous system. This releases endorphins, your body’s natural painkillers, in the muscles, spine, and brain. This technique changes your body’s response to pain.
Many people with neuropathy turn to acupuncture to relieve their chronic pain. Acupuncture also stimulates blood flow to restore nerve damage.

Though research is still being done to test the effectiveness of acupuncture on peripheral neuropathy, there have been some successful studies.

Can I use acupuncture to conceive?

Some research has shown that acupuncture may help women conceive. It doesn't hurt that it also relieves stress and helps your relax, which also may increase your chances of getting pregnant.

Acupuncture works by stimulating nerve endings deep below the surface of the skin. This can have positive effects on fertility.

A recent study found that women who did acupuncture when they were trying to get pregnant were more likely than women who just made lifestyle changes to get pregnant. A review of 23 studies showed that acupuncture improved the chances of conceiving in women undergoing in vitro fertilization.

The Root Causes of Chronic Health Problems

Chronic health issues rarely appear without reason. While symptoms may vary from person to person, many long-term conditions can be traced back to a few underlying imbalances that gradually disrupt the body’s natural ability to heal. Emotional stress, unresolved trauma, and ongoing exposure to toxins place continuous strain on the body’s systems, often leading to persistent pain, dysfunction, and illness over time. Understanding these root causes opens the door to more effective, holistic approaches such as acupuncture, that focus not just on managing symptoms, but on restoring balance and supporting the body’s innate healing process.,

Will Acupuncture Help?

The chronic problems we face with our health have three underlying causes. The first is emotional stress. Stress can create imbalance at several levels in our bodies including in our hormones and neurotransmitters which impact our endocrine and nervous systems. This can impact any organ system or muscle group in our bodies. The second problem is trauma. Traumas occur throughout our life and the effect of them accumulates with time. If the healing from trauma is interrupted, complete healing might never occur causing a chronic problem. The third problem is toxicity. Unfortunately, we live in a toxic environment. Worse than that, many of us have habits or lifestyles in which we expose ourselves to even more toxins. In any case, toxicity leads to malfunction of our bodies which robs us of our health. With repeated exposure to stress, trauma, and toxins, it is easy to understand how our bodies' natural state becomes disrupted. While many healthcare professionals resort to chemical prescription drugs and surgery to treat the symptoms that result from the imbalances, acupuncturists focus on restoring the flow of vital substances and helping the body to heal naturally.
