The Benefits of Regular Acupuncture Treatment

May 1, 2017 By Randi Hoffmann

The Benefits of Regular Acupuncture Treatment | Rivertown AcupunctureSpring is finally here, and doesn’t it feel good after a long winter spent hibernating? It’s an ideal occasion for paying greater attention to self-care and balanced well being in all its forms. We recently explored this topic on the blog, explaining how acupuncture is especially helpful during the changing seasons since we’re more prone to suffer from colds or allergies at those moments of transition. Acupuncture can help fortify our immune systems at those intervals, to be sure, but it can also be valuable as a regular wellness treatment.

People who’ve never experienced acupuncture treatment may not be familiar with how it works and when it is most effective. I certainly can and do treat people who come to me with specific health concerns after they have arisen (including injuries such as back pain). Some people also try acupuncture after failing to get a clear diagnosis from their doctor. However, acupuncture works best as a preventative form of treatment and is intended to keep the body from falling out of balance or becoming vulnerable to an illness. For that reason, it can be worthwhile to consider regular treatment so that you can get the greatest benefits that acupuncture has to offer.

Regular acupuncture treatment can deliver a range of health and wellness benefits. First and foremost, by freeing blocked Qi, or life force energy that flows along meridians throughout the body, acupuncture restores the immune system’s innate ability to heal the body’s systems on its own. This means that the patient will be far less likely to fall ill with a cold or flu. Regular acupuncture can also alleviate chronic pain that, left untreated, may profoundly compromise one’s quality of life. At the same time, acupuncture can also increase one’s energy levels, reduce stress, and induce a sense of calm and emotional stability. Patients may report enjoying better sleep and digestion as a result of their treatment as well.

As I’ve mentioned before, acupuncture cannot deliver these benefits in a single visit. It can take time to identify and then treat the specific underlying issues that may be impacting a patient’s health. But that is time well spent. It is beneficial in the end, for a more in-depth and holistic look at your overall condition is necessary to treat not just the symptoms you may be experiencing but their cause as well. So if you are looking to improve the quality of your overall well being, it may be worth considering how acupuncture is uniquely suited toward helping you achieve this goal.
