Where does stress come from?
Stress can come from many different sources. It can be caused by our environment, our thoughts, or our bodies. It can be acute or chronic. Acute stress is the kind of stress that comes on suddenly and is usually over within a short period of time. Chronic stress is the kind of stress that lasts for a long time and can have a negative impact on our health.
When it comes to stress, we often think of it as something that’s “all in our heads.” But the truth is, stress can have a very real and profound effect on our physical health. In fact, chronic stress has been linked to a whole host of health problems, including high blood pressure, heart disease, stroke, and even cancer.
What is acupuncture? How can it treat my stress?
Acupuncture is an ancient Chinese healing practice that has been used for centuries to treat a wide variety of ailments. The practice involves inserting thin needles into specific points on the body. This helps to release tension and promote relaxation as well as improving sleep quality.
Recently, acupuncture has been gaining popularity as a treatment for stress and anxiety. A growing body of research suggests that acupuncture may be an effective way to relieve stress and improve overall well-being.
One study found that acupuncture was effective in reducing stress levels and improving quality of life in employees with high levels of stress. The study found that after eight weeks of treatment, the employees who received acupuncture had significantly lower levels of stress than those who did not receive acupuncture.
Another study looked at the effects of acupuncture on students during final exams. The study found that students who received acupuncture had lower levels of stress and anxiety and better sleep quality during their exams when compared to those who did not receive acupuncture.
If you’re looking for a natural way to reduce stress and improve your overall health, consider trying acupuncture. It’s safe, effective, and has been used for centuries to promote relaxation and well-being.

How many sessions of acupuncture will I need to reduce stress?
The number of sessions you’ll need will depend on your individual situation. Generally, it’s recommended that you start with a series of eight to 12 sessions. Once your stress levels have decreased, you may only need one or two maintenance sessions per month.
Is the acupuncture painful?
Acupuncture needles are extremely thin and most people report feeling no pain or only minor discomfort when the needles are inserted. If you do feel any pain, it should only last for a few seconds. Once the needles are in place, you may feel a tingling or warm sensation. This is normal and is a sign that the acupuncture is working.
How long is each session?
Acupuncture sessions typically last 30-60 minutes. During your first session, the acupuncturist will take a thorough medical history and ask about your symptoms. This will help them to determine the best treatment plan for you.
What should I expect after an acupuncture session?
After an acupuncture session, you may feel relaxed and rejuvenated. Some people also report feeling a bit tired. It’s important to drink plenty of water after your session to help flush out toxins that have been released from your body. You should avoid alcohol and caffeine for 24 hours after your treatment.
