Feeling Stressed? Why Acupuncture Works Better Than a Glass of Wine

Stress is almost a way of life these days. Between work, family life, traffic, and endless social events, it's no wonder we're feeling stretched thin. For many people, the easy fix is a glass of wine or zoning out on screens - but acupuncture offers something deeper and longer-lasting.

Here's why:

It Targets Your Nervous System

Acupuncture activates your parasympathetic system (your "rest and digest" mode), literally helping your brain and body rest.

It Regulates Stress Hormones

Studies show acupuncture reduces cortisol, the hormone behind that wired (and often tired) anxious feeling.

It Promotes "Feel-Good" Chemicals

Acupuncture increases your body's natural endorphins - the same chemicals that make you feel amazing after a great run or a hug from a friend you haven’t seen in awhile.

It's Preventative, TOO!

One session can feel relaxing, amazing, and euphoric. Regular acupuncture can actually change how your body reacts to future stress and illness. Acupuncture treats your body holistically. It treats any kind of underlying imbalance to help you be a healthier you. For now and in the future.

Instead of masking stress with short-term fixes, acupuncture helps you build true resilience - from the inside out.
