Anxiety

First, anxiety is very common, and regardless of degree of the anxiety (mild or severe), this is a condition which is experienced by almost every single human being at one point or another during his/her life time.

Regardless of the severity of the anxiety, some people refuse to get treatment, and this refusal causes great suffering for families, friends, and the general public. This condition needs to be treated with both respect and compassion.

Anxiety is commonly treated with acupuncture. However, the treatment of anxiety can be complicated and may require a team approach.  Patients may need drug therapy, counseling, acupuncture, exercise, nutrition adjustments, or a combination of all of these treatments.

The correct treatment, or combination of treatments, is solution based!  Did the treatment work?  Is the patient getting better?
