Cardiovascular Health
Acupuncture has been scientifically proven to directly regulate abnormalities of blood pressure
Acupuncture when it’s applied to the right areas creates a strong input to the cardiovascular regions of the brain that regulate sympathetic outflow (heart rate responses) and therefore reduce hypertension.
Acupuncture is actually able to lower reflective elevations in blood pressure by 40 to 50% by using these pathways!
When acupuncture is given to someone with normal levels of blood pressure or just slightly elevated, after several treatments it becomes regular without creating low blood pressure, making acupuncture a very safe model for treating blood pressure.
Just one acupuncture treatment can lower blood pressure for up to 3 to 4 weeks. Doing treatments monthly is an excellent way to treat high blood pressure and the effects it has on our blood vessels, which left unmanaged (by medications) or untreated can cause serious illness and death
