Traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) has a common saying that goes, “Where there is no pain, there is free flow of qi in the body.” “Qi” is responsible for all physiologic processes in the body. A simple example is the lack of circulation to an ankle when it’s sprained, causing swelling. In this example, acupuncture needles would be inserted to restore free flow of blood, fluids, and nutrients, allowing for a faster and easier recovery from improved circulation. When qi is not flowing smoothly, pain and disease may take place, either slowly over time, or very quickly, in the case of traumatic injury. The goal of acupuncture is a safe, effective, and natural treatment to restore proper flow of qi so that the body can function optimally.
Other Acupuncture benefits include:
- Improves sleep: Studies show that acupuncture was associated with a significant increase in melatonin secretion, sleep efficiency, and total sleep time. It improves sleep by restoring the body's natural balance, which allows the body to relax and rejuvenate.
- Relieves pain, stress, and anxiety: Research shows that acupuncture relieves pain by stimulating the body to produce more of its own pain-relieving chemicals, such as endorphins. It also may help release other substances that block pain signals from the brain.
- Boosts the immune system: Acupuncture has been shown to increase the number of immune cells in the body, including T-cells, white blood cells, and red blood cells.
- Helps with fertility: Acupuncture has shown excellent results as a treatment for infertility. It has successfully restored fertility in patients by improving the ovaries' function, sperm quality, and by balancing the endocrine system and hormones.
