The holiday season, filled with lots of parties, food and family gatherings can be a fun filled time, but it can also be a time for stress, anxiety and depression for many people. Money and family stresses can seem overwhelming, especially in a year such as we've had when many people are losing jobs or facing salary cutbacks. Normal stress can seem difficult in the best of times, but combined with challenging economic times and holiday pressures it can be overwhelming.
This past year I have had an unusually high number of people coming to see me for stress, stress related ailments, anxiety and depression. I have treated them with acupuncture and herbal medicine and have seen dramatic and welcome improvements in most of them. Depending on the severity of the situation, Traditional Chinese Medicine offers a holistic solution to this very common problem. Mild to moderate depression and anxiety can often improve very quickly with the use of regular acupuncture treatments and customized herbal formulas. It is important that the formulas and treatments be customized as each person is different in their constitution and cause of imbalance.
Acupuncture and herbal medicine can be used alone or in conjunction with other therapies. It can be especially effective when used in conjunction with psychological counseling particularly in more severe cases.
