How to Lower Stress Through Acupuncture
 
 
 
Introduction

Acupuncture treats pain and disease by rupturing the skin with thin needles. This practice stems from the belief that illness results when blockages hinder the proper flow of energy within the body. The needles clear these blockages, rejuvenating health and wellness. Many think that acupuncture is useful to cure lot of problems, like ulcers, hemorrhoids, diabetes, Bell's palsy, depression and insomnia. This method has also been shown to reduce stress.

Things Needed

Computer and Internet access for locating an acupuncturist in your neighborhood.

Steps

1 Understand the causes of stress-associated symptoms. Stress arises from the body's "fight or flight" reaction to a supposed threat. This reaction increases the amount of cortisol—body’s stress hormone-- within the body. Your blood pressure goes up and depressed the body’s immunity. As time passes, these issues can escalate into depression, anxiety, fatigue and digestive problems.

2 Know how acupuncture combats stress and stress-associated symptoms. Acupuncture helps by stimulating the secretion of pain-killing endorphins. These endorphins relieve stress. Acupuncture also removes cortisol and other poisonous chemicals by enhancing blood circulation. Moreover acupuncture also lowers heart rate and blood pressure.
