Neck pain can be the result of joint wear from degenerative conditions like arthritis, nerve irritation from bone spurs or herniated discs, soft tissue strain from injuries such as whiplash, or myofascial pain syndrome referred pain. Along with options like heat and ice application, pain medication, physical therapy and stretching, etc., acupuncture can be an effective way to decrease neck pain and stiffness. This may be related to the release of endorphins, the body’s natural pain-killing chemicals, during acupuncture sessions. Acupuncture can also affect the part of the brain that controls mood, further assisting with relaxation and pain management.

Acupuncture for Less Anxiety
Many studies involving hundreds of patients have shown evidence that acupuncture can help treat anxiety and can have similar effects as talk therapy. Acupuncture can help the body relax in a variety of ways, including 1) prompting the parasympathetic nervous system to release signals for relaxation; 2) improving the heart rate variability, which helps the body cope with stress; 3) calming the hypothalamus, which releases neurochemicals when we are under stress; and 4) helping with the flow of endorphins, the body’s own “feel good” chemicals. Acupuncture can be considered as an effective alternative to traditional pharmacological and psychological treatments.
A New Year Awaits New Possibilities
When I listen to my intuition and emotions noticing all the ways I have failed to do so in the past, it serves to align my inner compass, welcoming in authenticity and flow.
When I value my time, energy and self-worth, I release the people, situations and experiences that have failed to respect the boundaries I set and connect in with those that do, I respect myself.
When I put my values into action, I live and operate from my highest vision. Feeding my strengths and talents, infusing them into my creativity. Honoring my integrity and self-expression.
When I learn to make peace with my past, I release the pain and grief of what can’t be. Welcoming self-compassion and acceptance for what can be, I renew my life.
