Acupuncture Balances Neurotransmitter Levels

Because acupuncture stimulates the nervous system, it has a special effect on neurotransmitter levels. The neurotransmitters acupuncture affects most are seratonin and noradrenaline.

Neurotransmitters are essential
for building healthy relationships.

Seratonin is the nervous system's gauge for food intake. It moderates social interaction, and determines relationship behavior. Low levels of seratonin are linked to sugar cravings, depression, anxiety, OCD, and addictions.

Higher levels of seratonin are associated with calmness, optimism, and mindful reflection.

Noradrenaline, also known as norepinephrine, is a stress hormone that stimulates the fight-or-flight response. Chronically high noradrenaline levels produce adrenal fatigue and circulation problems.

The best acupuncture point to balance
neurotransmitters is located near
the base of the ear.

Lowering levels of noradrenaline allows the rest-and-digest response to activate. One point on the ear is called the 'autonomic point,' and it specifically balances these responses. This point is featured in a specialized protocol
used in addiction recovery all over the world.

After people receive acupuncture, their seratonin levels rise and their noradrenaline levels decline. This is why acupuncture is so effective for weight loss, mood disorders, and all kinds of addiction. It also explains why people feel so amazing after a session.
