Can acupuncture help with mental health issues like anxiety or depression?
Yes. Many people find acupuncture helpful for managing symptoms of anxiety, depression, and stress. It can promote relaxation and help balance mood by stimulating the body’s release of natural “feel-good” chemicals like endorphins.
Does insurance cover acupuncture?
Some insurance plans do cover acupuncture, but coverage varies widely. It’s best to check with your insurance provider to understand what’s covered and whether you need a referral for reimbursement.
Can acupuncture help with fertility or hormonal balance?
Yes. Acupuncture is sometimes used to support fertility and hormonal balance. Some people use it in conjunction with fertility treatments, as it may improve blood flow to reproductive organs
and help regulate hormones.
Can children or elderly people receive acupuncture?
Yes. Acupuncture can be tailored to be safe for both children and elderly individuals. Practitioners may use different techniques, such as fewer or gentler needle placements, to ensure comfort and safety.
