Why acupuncture

In the hectic lives we lead today, we are often faced with stress or tension. More often than not, workplace stress arises from dissatisfaction with the working environment, competition among workers, and having difficulty in switching off at the end of the day. This can lead to a sense of stress from which you cannot distance yourself. These forms of stress may – if they last for a prolonged time – escalate into physical symptoms such as: increased blood pressure, insomnia, headaches, dietary changes, insecurity, etc.

Energy Management

Acupuncture acts out on the energy system of the body. Your body’s energy level displays out–of–balance symptoms or stress, which persists longer, and there is almost no reprisal. You can fix this by ensuring that your energy is well balanced. Acupuncture can be advantageous to tackle this imbalance.

Acupuncture restores the energy balance and increases the body’s ability to self-heal. For example, not only diseases or mobility, but also problems and stress can be better dealt with. It instantly gives you a more relaxed feeling, and after a few sessions, you notice that your concentration has improved, pain decreased, and that you even sleep better.

Chinese medicine

The focus of acupuncture treatment is to restore your energy and, thus your health. The acupuncture that we apply is a part of ancient Chinese medicine. Other parts of this ancient medicine include herbal remedies and massages. Chinese medicine perceives disease in a different way than any Western medicine. It views the human being as a whole: body and mind.
