Looking for mental health support that isn’t medication? Acupuncture is a research-proven method to help improve anxiety, depression, and other mental health issues. Acupuncture involves inserting small needles through the skin at various points to improve mood and other concerns that come with mental health including insomnia and fatigue.
At The Living Well Chiropractic + Acupuncture, Dr. Brianne Levandoski specializes in mental health using natural and holistic solutions. She utilizes acupuncture, cupping, herbal medicine, and other modalities to improve mental health. Regarding mental health, acupuncture works in a few ways:
1. Impacts the Vagus Nerve: Acupuncture directly impacts the vagus nerve (a nerve that directly affects mood and digestion) to help your body be in a parasympathetic state (healing state) to improve mental health.
2. Increase Dopamine and Serotonin: Acupuncture has been proven to increase dopamine and serotonin and other neurotransmitters, so you are feeling more relaxed after a treatment.
3. Changes How the Brain Functions: Your brain WANTS to change; it's called neuroplasticity. Acupuncture is supported to help your brain and nervous system change its structure, function, and connection to the world so you feel better!
