What Is Acupuncture?

Acupuncture involves the strategic placement of whisper-thin needles at specific points of the body to enhance overall health and immune function. This technique stimulates key areas, such as muscles, nerves, and tissues, fostering natural healing and symptom relief.

Recognized for its effectiveness by leading health institutions such as Johns Hopkins University, acupuncture is used to improve bodily functions, balance hormonal activity, and boost well-being.

This treatment offers a safe and effective way to support the immune system and enhance health without the use of excessive medical supplements. For more insights into how acupuncture works and its benefits, click the link below.

How Acupuncture for Immune Support Works

Acupuncture offers a natural boost to your immune system by supporting the cells that defend your body from illness.

By reducing stress, which plays a significant role in immune function, and stimulating the production of vital immune cells like red and white blood cells, and T-cells, acupuncture strengthens your body's defense mechanisms. It enhances overall immunity, ensuring you're better equipped to ward off pathogens and maintain optimal health. 

This holistic approach not only helps in balancing your immune system but also improves your body's ability to fend off infections and recover from immune-related illnesses.

What About Acupuncture for Allergies?

If you're one of the over 50 million Americans suffering from allergies, we have great news for you! Acupuncture may offer the help you need.

Acupuncture works by stimulating specific points in your body to restore natural balance and activate your body's healing response. This can reduce symptoms and, in some cases, offer long-term relief from allergies.

Unlike conventional antihistamines and decongestants that rely on chemical substances, acupuncture provides a holistic and gentle alternative for allergy management, making it an effective option.

FAQs

How does acupuncture help boost the immune system?

By promoting a balanced energy flow, acupuncture enhances your body's natural resilience and its ability to fend off illnesses, ensuring you're better prepared to stay healthy.

Is insurance required?

Our sessions and membership plans are very affordable so insurance isn't required. HSA and FSA plans are accepted.

Can acupuncture provide relief for allergy symptoms?

Yes, acupuncture can be very effective in managing allergy symptoms. It works by stimulating the body's natural healing responses, helping to restore equilibrium and reduce the sensitivity to allergens. This can lead to a decrease in symptoms like congestion, runny nose, and itchy eyes, offering a more comfortable allergy season without relying solely on medications.

Do I need an appointment?

Appointments are highly encouraged to secure a preferred time. Check the clinic nearest you for walk-in availability.

Are there any side effects?

Side effects after treatment are uncommon, with most people leaving our clinics feeling deeply relaxed.

Some patients may experience mild disorientation, which typically resolves with a brief rest. We recommend eating a small meal before the session to prevent feelings of dizziness or tiredness afterward.

  • Complete patient forms online before your appointment to save time.
  • Wear loose-fitting clothing to allow your licensed acupuncturist easy access to acupuncture points.
