Acupuncture for Depression and Anxiety
We very much hope that if you suffer from depression and/or anxiety you will consider trying acupuncture at Gateway. Whilst it has not been formally evaluated for these conditions we consider the Five Element approach to be particularly valuable from a clinical perspective because this method emphasises and prioritises mental and emotional problems in the diagnosis and treatment. For example, feelings of hopelessness and despair indicate that the person's 'spirit' needs to be treated, whilst someone that has just given up completely could have a major 'block' that might respond well to specific treatment protocols identified through diagnosis and examination. If you have depression and anxiety symptoms it may be that you have experienced some type of chronic stress or have a past trauma that is not resolved in your body's physiology. if this is the case, we believe acupuncture can, potentially, be a great help - and the fact that the current evidence is rather limited does not mean it is not worth a try.
