Acupuncture For Depression & Anxiety

If you live in the Dallas area and are looking for help with depression or anxiety, I’m really glad you are reading this. I have helped many people in my Dallas acupuncture practice overcome depression and anxiety using all-natural methods. Each one of us experience different emotions from hour to hour and day to day. Emotions are a natural part of life and they are a part of a healthy human experience. It is only when emotions linger for too long or are too extreme does this become problematic. Constant worry, nervousness, fear, sorrow, or anger can interfere with our ability to cope with daily stressors and may lead to depression and anxiety.

Your mental health is every bit as important as your physical health and they are very much interrelated. Chronic stress and anxiety can lead to many illnesses including muscle tension, insomnia, high blood pressure, fatigue, and headaches. It is important that we take time to address our mental and emotional health for the sake of ourselves and our families.

Acupuncture is deeply relaxing and most patients leave treatment feeling calm, peaceful, and maybe even a little floaty. Studies suggest that acupuncture and herbal medicine are just as effective as conventional medical treatments such as counseling and medication. Acupuncture has been shown to lower cortisol and increase endorphins.

Success Stories:  Insomnia & Depression

“I initially went to see Ellee for injuries I had experienced after many years of running.  After only one treatment my IT band, piriformis, and glutes felt relieved and loosened up allowing me to run pain free.  I continued to see her for maintenance and injury prevention.  I then went to see her when I was experiencing difficulty sleeping, fatigue and depression.  I was amazed at how energized I felt after only a short time.”

Is Acupuncture Right For You?

For more than 4000 years, acupuncture has proven effective in treating the symptoms and addressing the root cause for many problems.

From a biomedical perspective, acupuncture works by stimulating parts of the brain to release natural biomolecules such as neurotransmitters, vasodilators and hormones. Scientific research shows that these biomolecules trigger the immune system and pain regulating mechanisms resulting in a broad spectrum of systemic effects. Studies done through Neuroimaging, Thermal Imaging, and Ultrasound prove the effects of acupuncture are beneficial.
