Jenny diagnoses the pattern of the Qi imbalance by examining the tongue and the pulse. She selects acupuncture points accordingly to restore a balanced Qi distribution.
Acupuncture treatments counteract the body's “fight-or-flight” response to stressful situations (a.k.a. sympathetic response) by causing the release of calming, “feel-good” neurotransmitters (e.g. endorphins) and by reducing the levels of stress hormones (e.g. cortisol ).
Acupuncture also improves blood circulation, which oxygenates the tissue and speeds up the removal of stress hormones from the body. These effects reduce stress and anxiety and also help in treating mild depression.
