Acupuncture gently nudges the body back into what we call “homeostasis,” or “homeostatic balance.” This means that all of the organs of the body function as they should and they all communicate properly with each other. Acupuncture also increases blood flow helping injured areas heal, as well as increases oxygen levels in the brain.
So if I have a headache or a migraine is it because of the lack of blood flow?
Not always, but that is certainly one cause of headaches in many people. Headaches may be caused by poor circulation, spinal misalignment, infection, injury, etc.
A comprehensive health history will be the helpful first step in determining the problem. We will ask lots of questions in order to begin to give us a clear picture of the root causes of your headaches and then determine the treatment plan that best works for you.
