I Have Migraines: Can Acupuncture Help?
Migraines can be an extremely frustrating condition to manage — the pain, the uncertainty, the lack of solutions. Explore how we can relieve much of this frustration, and your head pain, with acupuncture.
It’s hard to believe that the holidays, and a new year, are already upon us. As you look ahead to gathering with friends and family, you want to look your best this year, but not in that unnatural way that screams you’ve had “work done.”
Through our cosmetic acupuncture services, including facial acupuncture, the team of certified acupuncturists here at Family Wellness Acupuncture can breathe new life into aging skin naturally and effectively.
One of the many reasons why our clients seek us out for cosmetic acupuncture is to achieve a more naturally youthful appearance. The options for altering aging faces are more numerous than ever, but the alterations are often fairly evident. From over-plumped lips to frozen faces, these anti-aging efforts often achieve quite the opposite of a youthful, vibrant appearance.
Through acupuncture, we revitalize skin using your body’s natural energy, or qi, to amplify the flow of regenerative resources into your dermis. In working internally and with your body to improve your appearance, you achieve natural results with no downtime or unwanted side effects.
When performing facial acupuncture, we insert tiny needles in key areas around your face and neck. These needles work in several ways, including:
Not only can we tighten sagging skin with facial acupuncture, but we can also relax the muscles that are responsible for forming those dynamic wrinkles on your face, such as forehead lines, frown lines, and crow’s feet.
At the heart of traditional Chinese medicine, practices are acknowledging the body as a whole and how different areas are connected by meridians. Although the treatment is referred to as facial acupuncture, we also insert needles elsewhere on your body to prevent congestion in any one area, thereby improving the overall flow of energy.
If you want to refresh and revitalize your skin in time for the holidays, it’s a good idea to start now, as we recommend a series of 10-12 sessions.
As you progress through these sessions, your face will respond and look more youthful and vibrant with each treatment. As an added bonus, we can simultaneously work on stress reduction, which can do wonders for giving you a relaxed glow.
To get started on your facial acupuncture, please contact our Irvine, California office to schedule your appointments today.
