Understanding Therapuncture®
There is good news about mental health disorders like depression, anxiety, addictions and PTSD. Recovery is possible. According to Chinese Medical theory, mental illness occurs when there is imbalance within the body. According to holistic mental health, the mind, body and spirit are all connected. Adding acupuncture with holistic mental health you get therapuncture® which does not mask symptoms but heals.
We know that everyone has to deal with major emotional distress at some points in our lives. These upheavals can trigger a variety of unexpected feelings and emotions that can range from depression, anxiety and stress to addictions and behaviors that can be worked with. The U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention looked at 2.4 billion drugs prescribed in visits to doctors and hospitals in 2005. Of those, 118 million were for antidepressants. What we know is antidepressants only work for 50% of the people taking them and many people experience bad side effects.
Holistic mental health, which emphasizes the interrelationship between mind, body, and spirit and understands that traditional medicine and psychology has a limited understanding and knowledge about the mind body spirit effect and uses medicines as they main form to treat mental health issues. Acupuncture and Oriental medicine alleviate symptoms associated with mental health issues and can treat what is called the root cause of the problem. This is done by helping the body rebalance.
More important, many people with depression or anxiety and other mental health conditions often suffer from pain and acupuncture as well as therapy can help with pain. Therapuncture® also combines the use of supplements and Chinese herbs that can assist further healing.
