Acupuncture is considered a good and effective treatment for pain worldwide: headaches, back pain, shoulder and arm pain, leg pain, knee pain, ankle pain, neck pain, abdominal pain, menstrual and gynecological pain, fibromyalgia, rheumatism pains, osteoarthritis pains, facial pain, radiating pains, pains between the ribs, chest pain, breast pain, tailbone pain, pains on the vertebrae…) . It is always worthwhile to treat pain complaints with acupuncture. With acupuncture, the healing powers in the body are addressed and the body recovers and the pain disappears. Something positive happens, no suppression or camouflaging of the pain.
In addition to pain, acupuncture is strong in harmonizing body and mind. Since acupuncture sees body and mind as a whole, it is possible to improve both physical and mental complaints. There is a constant interaction between body and mind. Our mind affects our body (and the symptoms) and the malfunctioning of our mind affects the functioning of our body. The effect is that after acupuncture treatments, people become more lively, more resilient, more solid, more flexible, more alert, clearer, more stress-resistant and less susceptible to mood swings and depression. Fatigue, listlessness, burnout, depression, dips are looked at and treated from different angles in acupuncture.
