Mental Wellness
Depression affects 121 million people worldwide and can be debilitating for those who experience it. Prolonged feelings of sadness, discouragement, and hopelessness greatly affect the quality of life. At one time or another, most of us have experienced some form of depression. When we feel balanced, physically and emotionally, we can easily bounce back from a depressed state and move on.
How Acupuncture Can Help
Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs incorporate thousands of years of experience in treating depression. Not only can they help alleviate the signs and symptoms, they can address the root cause and underlying imbalances that have contributed to the problem, safely, and naturally.
Research
Research published in Journal of Affective Disorders covered 207 clinical studies conducted on the effectiveness of treating depressive disorders. According to this, the efficacy of acupuncture was comparable to antidepressants alone in improving clinical response and alleviating symptom severity of Major Depressive Disorder. Additionally, the incidence of adverse reactions of acupuncture treatment was significantly lower than that of antidepressants.
