Anxiety

When should I seek help for anxiety?

You should seek help for anxiety if you have overwhelming feelings of nervousness and fear that make it hard for you to concentrate or go about your usual routine.

Anxiety is the emotional reaction your body has to stressful situations. It’s the fear you feel before a job interview and the excitement before a vacation. This type of anxiety is normal and not necessarily a bad thing.

Your anxiety makes you more alert and focused. When the stressful situation is over, your anxiety goes away. 

Anxiety that continues after a stressful event or occurs in response to everyday things are signs of an anxiety disorder, a type of mental health condition. Anxiety disorders are serious health conditions and need proper medical care.

Ongoing anxiety from chronic stress is also a problem because it affects your physical and emotional well-being. Taking care of your stress can ease your anxiety.

How does acupuncture help anxiety?

Zen Attitude Acupuncture specializes in acupuncture and uses this traditional Chinese medicine treatment to manage a wide range of health issues. Acupuncture helps anxiety by balancing the nervous system.

Acupuncture rebalances the body’s life force or flow of energy. Your acupuncturist inserts thin needles into specific areas of the body, shifting the nervous system into a more relaxed state by triggering the release of feel-good chemicals.

Many people report feeling a general sense of calm and an improvement in focus following acupuncture treatment. The ancient therapy isn’t a quick fix, and the team at Zen Attitude Acupuncture may recommend a series of sessions so you get the most benefits.

When anxiety takes over your body and mind, it’s time to reach out for help. Call Zen Attitude Acupuncture today or book an appointment online.
