Acupuncture Treatments for Aging And Stress
July 8th, 2010
Adults over the age of 50 experience less daily stress than younger people, according to a new National Academy of Sciences study.
Evaluating 340,000 participants in a 2008 Gallup-Healthways Well-Being Index Poll, researchers from Princeton, Columbia and Stony Brook universities found that nearly 35 percent of adults reported significantly higher levels of stress up to the age of 50, with reduced stress experienced in later years.
Older individuals tend to concentrate on good aspects of living, such as friends and family, rather than negative factors, such as disease and illness. Overall feelings of well being improve as people age.
“Older adults also experience a ‘positivity effect’ wherein they recall fewer negative memories than younger adults and may be more effective at regulating their emotions than younger adults,” the researchers write.
Stress is affecting younger people most, with under-40s seeking acupuncture and other holistic therapies for stress-related and emotional ailments such as depression, strain and anxiety. The top three stress-related and emotional ailments for which acupuncture is sought are depression, anxiety and insomnia.
Acupuncture benefits include:
· No side effects from medications.
· Lower blood pressure.
· Decreased heart rate.
· Stress reduction.
· Increased energy.
Acupuncture improves overall well being, rather than only addressing the symptoms of stress. Acupuncture for stress selects acupoints during treatment which produce an immediate, regulatory effect on the nervous system, slowing heart rate and allowing the body and mind to relax.
