WHY ACUPUNCTURE FOR TEENS?
Stress, depression, anxiety, and other related disorders have become rampant among teens and young adults. Acupuncture offers a safe, and effective way for teens to cope and feel better. Whether you choose to use acupuncure treatments alone, or accompanied by a western doctor’s care, there are many possibilities for reducing pain, stress, and other mental/emotional issues.
Acupuncture Sports Medicine for Teens
Acupuncture is ideal for treating many different sports injuries, as well as chronic and acute pain.
Whether your shoulders are strained from swimming, or you need a boost in your performance, acupuncture can help in many areas of your life!
Reducing Stress and Easing Anxiety in Teens
Teens face a tremendous amount of pressure, which unfortuntely seeps into every aspect of their lives: the stress to get good grades, to take AP courses, to achieve athletically, to fit in socially, to get into a good college, to figure out what comes next, to name only a few.
Acupuncture reduces stress by calming our fight or flight system, and activates the good chemicals in the body, such as endorphins and serotonin. The result is a reduction in stress, and the ability to navigate more easily through the difficult times.
Rewards and Building Confidence
Have you ever wondered why athletes such as famous swimmers, and basketball players get cupping and acupuncture on a regular basis?
Unbeknownst to many who haven’t tried acupuncture, this traditional medicine will enhance your performance, and give you an “edge”, so that you will perform at your best. In Athletics, it helps both your body and your mind to perform at peak level.
You are more likely to win that swim meet, or ace your exam. This is because acupuncture treats the whole individual. It will treat your sore knee and sharpen your senses and help you make that goal!
