Your daily stresses, lifestyle choices and injuries can upset our bodies natural balance and lead to physical and emotional symptoms. The goal of acupuncture is to promote and restore the balance of energy, which flows throughout the body. The benefits of acupuncture can extend to a wide variety of conditions, from emotional disorders (anxiety and depression) to digestive complaints (nausea, vomiting, irritable bowel syndrome). It can be beneficial for pain syndromes due to an injury or associated with chronic degenerative diseases such as rheumatoid arthritis and can also be helpful in treating neurological problems like migraines and Parkinsons or as a rehabilitation strategy for individuals who suffered a stroke. Respiratory conditions, including sinusitis and asthma have been relieved with acupuncture, as have many gynaecological disorders and infertility. Acupuncture has also proved beneficial for reducing fatigue and addictions, and for promoting overall well-being.

At Escapada, we use a range of treatment methods and approaches to prompt your body’s intelligence to restore balance.

HOW ACUPUNCTURE WORKS

Chinese Medicine focuses on the processes of the human body as an energy system. Health and well-being rely on the smooth and dynamic flow of energy or Qi through the body. Acupuncture stimulates the body’s ability to self-heal by correcting imbalances such as deficiencies, stagnations and excesses. There are 14 organ related energy channels in the body which are called meridians. During an acupuncture treatment, various points along these meridians, are identified and prescribed in your treatment plan to treat your specific needs.

Acupuncture improves the body’s functions and promotes the natural self-healing process by stimulating specific anatomic sites-commonly referred to as acupuncture points. These points have high concentrations of nerve endings, mast cells, lymphatics and capillaries, all capable of triggering biochemical and physiological changes in the body. When a needle is inserted into an acupuncture point, it stimulates the sensory receptor and sets off a chain reaction, kick starting a complex system of interactions between the brain, hormones and glands. This system is a powerhouse responsible for regulating a number of bodily processes.

At our Escapada TCM Health Clinics, we seek to treat both the symptoms and root of your ailment using the Escapada 4-Pillar Health Solution.
