Headaches and Acupuncture

Acupuncture is viewed as a safe, successfully-proven method of relieving a variety of headaches from ones associated with stress to muscle tension to work-related postural imbalances. It is highly recommended to individuals who live busy lifestyles – like in Vancouver 😉

However, headaches can be brought on by a variety of culprits. For example, environmental pollutants which are present in the atmosphere can cause many sinus problems which can create terrible headaches.

Because acupuncture can also get to the root of the underlying causes it can clear up these sinus problems by dispelling tension in the nose, eyes, ears, forehead, and neck areas.

Acupuncture gets to the root causes of headaches by opening up energy reserves, allowing for better circulation and breathing, which means more oxygen, more healthy brain activity, less tension, and better posture,

Acupuncture is a ‘holistic’ remedy because it goes to work on the whole body even when just one main problem is being treated. Treating your headaches and minimizing the contributing factors of their return, will make living in Vancouver feel like a sunny day every day.

Facial neuromuscular training uses the concept of neuroplasticity to facilitate nerve recovery and muscle retraining. It requires active client participation to re-educate the brain’s control of facial muscle movements. It supports recovery as the nerve regenerates, with a goal to a more symmetrical face and regaining the control of the muscles used in facial expression.
