Acupuncture for Anxiety
Acupuncture is extremely effective in treating anxiety. My acupuncture clinic is in the Back Bay of Boston and I am constantly talking to people about the benefits of acupuncture and most people don't realize that acupuncture helps people on a mental level. Not only is it effective, it has the added benefit of being an alternative to taking medications. I have many patients who suffer from general anxiety or panic attacks. I suffered from panic attacks before I began receiving acupuncture years ago. Now it all seems like a dream to me, but I remember being stuck in traffic, or on the subway, and not being able to breathe, and even having to go to the emergency room. Then I discovered acupuncture. I quickly noticed a difference in how my body reacted to stress and anxiety. Within about two months my anxiety attacks were gone. I can't even express to you how my life has changed by not having those horrible symptoms.
I liked receiving acupuncture for anxiety because I had been prescribed Paxil for my anxiety attacks and it did help, but I suffered horrible side effects from the medication. After going off of the medication I continued to have side effects for about 5 years! If I knew now what I knew then, I never would have gone on the medication and would have only received acupuncture. Live and learn! My goal is to help people make the decision to try alternative forms of treatment for anxiety without having to go through what I did.
Acupuncture helps a person on a body, mind and spirit level. Most people think of acupuncture for pain, but it is very effective in treating emotional problems such as depression and anxiety. As an acupuncturist I help people to make lifestyle changes, some as simple as learning how to breathe properly. I like to check in with my patients to see how everything is going in their life and health, and proceed to give them a personalized acupuncture treatment that addresses their concerns. Every treatment is unique, as no two people are exactly the same. I feel the pulses, look at the tongue, look in the eyes, and even smell the back of the neck to help me come up with a perfect treatment. My patients report feeling more relaxed and at ease after treatment.
There is no reason why you can't feel better, happier, and more alive. By receiving acupuncture for anxiety your symptoms should disappear. Call William Wessel at 617-922-1881 to schedule your first treatment. I am never too busy to help you reach your health goals.
