What is neuroacupuncture?
Neuroacupuncture is a specialized acupuncture treatment that combines modern understanding of neuroanatomy and physiology with traditional acupuncture techniques to stimulate and harmonize functions in specific regions of the brain. It is known that certain areas of the brain control specific functions of the nervous system including: motor activity, sensory input, vision, speech, hearing, balance, neuroendocrine activity, and more. By using specific zones on the head that correspond to these mapped brain areas, neuroacupuncture is effective in treating many neurological conditions.
Neuroacupuncture is used to treat the following conditions:
Stroke Recovery
Paralysis
Aphasia
Complex Regional Pain
Phantom Limb Pain
Parkinson’s disease
Multiple Sclerosis
Traumatic Brain Injury
Post-Traumatic Stress Disorder
Essential Tremor
Cerebral Palsy
What to Expect:
Results vary in treatment between individuals and are influenced by a number of factors such as: duration and severity of the illness, age, and general health. Most people experience an improvement of their condition within the first four treatments and sometimes improvement is seen after only a few minutes.
