Acupuncture and Mental Health Issues

Does acupuncture help patients suffering from mental health issues?

Research is currently looking at mental health issues like depression and anxiety, especially in terms of how these issues affect overall health.

Since chronic pain has often been linked to depressive symptoms, research is looking at the impact of acupuncture for addressing both a person’s pain and their depression.

A 2020 study published in the journal Frontiers in Neurology found that migraine sufferers who had acupuncture treatments had a lower risk of depression and anxiety.

Healthcare continues evolving to less-invasive, natural, and drug-free methods, with acupuncture now being a first-line complementary healthcare choice.

Remember, the American Acupuncture Council (AAC) offers an unparalleled track record in acupuncture risk management.

There is a reason acupuncturists have trusted AAC with their business for 50 years.
