Is acupuncture good for stress?
Hello, I am sorry to hear about your stress. Acupuncture is excellent for stress. It helps your body to produce and release more hormones that help you feel relaxed such as dopamine, serotonin, and norepinephrine. If you want to find a board-certified acupuncturist, here is a link to help you find someone in your area. https://www.nccaom.org/find-a-practitioner-directory/ Hope this helps!

Can more than one condition be treated in an acupuncture session?
I usually recommend treating at most two, maybe three things. The times I will treat three things are because two symptoms may be related from the same origin. If you treat too many concerns, there is not clarity for the body to send its resources to promote healing. Often, people will just have no effect if too many conditions are addressed simultaneously.

Is it normal to have a headache after acupuncture?
Sometimes people will get a headache right after if they haven’t eaten enough. If you are continuing to have headaches, sometimes that is the result of the first treatment moving things around and will get better with the second treatment. Sometime the headaches are related to other things outside of the treatment. READ MORE
Can acupuncture help with migraines?
Migraines are something that I regularly treat in my clinic and see great benefits for patients. It helps a variety of migraines whether they are from hormone, muscle tension, stress, etc. I would look for a licensed acupuncturist in your state and you could find someone through NCCAOM Find a Practitioner web page.
