what the science tells us

Studies show that acupuncture can influence the nervous system, stimulate the release of the body’s natural pain-relieving chemicals, and affect connective tissue and blood flow. Modern research continues to bridge traditional practices with contemporary medical understanding.

Balance

Acupuncture influences the central nervous system to regulate physiological responses, encourage healing, and restore the body back to homeostasis.

Pain Relief

Activates the body’s natural analgesic systems which involves the release of endorphins that help reduce pain sensitivity.

Mood Support

Neuroimaging studies show that acupuncture can improve activity and connectivity in areas of the brain involved in emotional regulation and cognition.

Blood Flow

Acupuncture increases microcirculation and activation of sensory nerve fibers which cause vasodilation and enhanced blood flow.
