How Acupuncture Works

Acupuncture has systemic and local effects. It strengthens and activates the body’s natural healing mechanisms to alleviate and improve the progression of many different health conditions:


  • Stimulates the release of your body’s pain-relieving chemicals
  • Targets painful points and trigger points
  • Influences the release of substances that aid in transmitting nerve impulses to the brain.
  • Stimulates & restores blood circulation by stimulating the body’s parasympathetic nervous system which causes dilation of the blood vessels.
  • Influences the autonomic, central and peripheral nervous systems.
  • Stimulates the body to reduce inflammation
  • Decreases muscle spasm and pain


Since Acupuncture has a cumulative effect on the body, most patients require a series of treatments to achieve the highest therapeutic outcome.
