Acupuncture has been around for thousands of years. Acupuncture is widely used as an adjunctive treatment for addiction to drugs and/or alcohol. Acupuncture is commonly considered by Western medical practitioners to have little more credibility than many other ‘complementary therapies’ and is often dismissed by them along with ‘alternative’ treatments with little or no history or proven efficacy. Acupuncture is an extremely old Chinese mode of treatment now practised all across the globe. It focuses on restricting the flow of energy in the body. Acupuncture controlled experimental conditions.

Because a lot of people today do not like taking medications for their disorders, they often opt for alternate medication for their anxiety.  This includes aromatherapy, acupuncture, herbal supplements and meditation.  These will work well if the anxiety is not severe and there is no severe underlying depression that is causing the anxiety or panic disorder.

I go to an outpatient treatment center (for drugs and alcohol, if you must know) and there is an acupuncturist there every Wednesday. I opted to have acupuncture done today because it’s only $5 and is supposed to ease cravings, stress and anxiety. It made me feel really good/weird. I’m just wondering about anyone else’s experience with this. I think I will have it done again next Wednesday. I have so much going on in my life right now and for the first time in weeks I am able to think about it without having a panic attack.

I am currently undergoing Acupuncture treatment for Depression & Anxiety. The Treatment is going ok, I seem to be really good then really bad, but have a lot of faith in Chinese Medicine so am bareing with it. I have currently had 6 sessions and have been great after some but bad after others. Can anybody advise how many treatments I will need to stabilize my moods, and to be free from Depression & Anxiety?

Chinese medicine is responsible for a number of natural therapies, and acupuncture is probably the best known of them. Basically, acupuncture works on the theory that your body contains energy centers at specific, strategic points. These energy centers are then linked to a particular part of the body. If you have a sore knee, for example, then the acupuncturist would locate the energy center links to that knee. This could well be located in a completely different part of the body. That’s the point where very thin needles are then inserted to stimulate the energy center. The result? The pain in your knee is reduced or removed entirely, by accessing the central nervous system through the acupuncture point.

Acupuncture is used to treat many conditions, but pain relief is the most common. It’s an odd concept – inserting needles into your body to reduce pain! But plenty of people find acupuncture. It’s believed that as well as stimulating energy centers, acupuncture stimulates the production of endorphins, known as “feel good” chemicals, which also helps reduce the pain.
