Treating Anxiety Disorders With Acupuncture
May 6th, 2010
Individuals with anxiety disorders have abnormalities in the way their brain unconsciously processes emotions. According to the National Institute of Mental Health, 18 percent of Americans have an anxiety disorder.
Generalized anxiety disorder is marked by extreme feelings of fear and uncertainty; people with the disorder live in a state of non-stop worry and often struggle getting through their daily lives. Individuals experiencing anxiety disorders have increased anxiety and worry and a heightened response to emotionally negative stimuli.
There are many types of anxiety disorders, including generalized anxiety disorder, specific phobias, panic disorder, social anxiety disorder, obsessive compulsive disorder, and post traumatic stress disorder.
Acupuncture can effectively treat many symptoms of anxiety disorders including:
· Concentration difficulties.
· Fatigue and insomnia.
· Headaches.
· Irritability.
· Feelings of panic.
Acupuncture can alleviate anxiety by decreasing heart rate, lowering stress, inducing relaxation, and increasing energy. Acupuncture for the treatment of anxiety disorders selects acupoints during therapy which produce a regulatory effect on the nervous system.
For individuals experiencing anxiety disorders, acupuncture can aid in decreasing the frequency and severity of anxiety related symptoms. Acupuncture also treats associated physical symptoms such as insomnia, heart palpitations, headaches, and muscle tension.
