What we have to say
Acupuncture brings about a sense of peace and calmness, while reducing physical symptoms of anxiety, including:
Digestive issues
Headache
Insomnia
Rapid heartbeat and breathing
Acupuncture is excellent for those with severe anxiety, as they will experience diminished anxiety symptoms immediately or soon after the first appointment, rather than relying on treatment that works over a long period of time. Patients also usually receive additional benefits such as better sleep and stress management.
Depression may be either acute or chronic, meaning short-term or long lasting. Acupuncture can treat both, as well as the underlying physical pain that is sometimes the cause of depression. Physical symptoms like insomnia and poor appetite and emotional feelings of depression diminish soon after treatment begins. Acupuncture may be an effective means of reducing dosage or increasing potency of anti-depressants.
Another very effective tool Dr. Ang uses is guided meditations. After meeting with Dr. Ang, she may recommend certain meditations for you. She also makes personalized meditations for her patients.
“I was pregnant with my second son and was having severe depression and anxiety symptoms. I did acupuncture with Dr. Ang but only had the time to see her once every two weeks. She made me a guided meditation and put it on YouTube so I could listen to it whenever I had time. I would listen to it every night before I fell asleep. I noticed such a calming feeling and really could handle everyday life so much better. My husband obviously noticed a difference, as he would encourage me to go to bed a little early just so I could make sure I had enough time to complete my mediation. He would even join in often… although I don’t know how helpful the part about the calm birthing/ pushing part helped him on the last one she made. :D”
Acupuncture is very effective for stress management. Whether your stress is ongoing or is related to a specific situation, acupuncture offers relief. Patients experience nearly instantaneous feelings of wellness and increased relaxation, as acupuncture causes the brain to release natural pain-killing chemicals called endorphins. Treatment can rid such stress-related symptoms as high blood pressure, headaches and musculo-skeletal tightness. Ongoing, untreated stress can have serious consequences for health, quality of life and even relationships. Give your body the rest it deserves with stress acupuncture treatment.
