Western Medicine Explanation of how Acupuncture works
Acupuncture is believed to stimulate the nervous system and cause the release of neuro-chemical messenger molecules. These biochemical changes promote physical and emotional well-being. Stimulation of certain acupuncture points has been shown to affect areas of the brain that are known to reduce sensitivity to pain and stress (Hui 2010). Call today for more details.
Research has shown that acupuncture can promote the release of endorphins and other neurohumoral factors to affect the way that pain processed in the brain and spinal cord. It can also inhibit pain, reduce inflammation and regulate metabolism-related genes and pathways. For more information about the science behind acupuncture, contact Caroline Lloyd.
