Depression and anxiety are so pervasive in our society today.

According to the National Institute of Mental Health (NIH), one in every five American adults live with a mental health disorder. Do you live with a feeling of panic or dread and don’t know why? Or maybe you can’t quiet the negative thoughts in your head. Or you feel like you can never relax. Maybe you were given a prescription medication with no explanation or follow-up care. So many people experience these same things. You are not alone – there is hope.

Chinese Medicine treats the root cause of anxiety & depression

Treating anxiety and depression is an area where Chinese Medicine really shines. This is largely because we treat the whole person – body, mind, and spirit – at the same time.

Acupuncture is so effective for anxiety and depression because it has been proven to raise endorphin (the feel good hormone) levels in the brain, its activates the parasympathetic nervous system which helps the body relax, and regulates serotonin (a hormone which affect’s our emotional state).
