Nervous System Health
The nervous system’s job, comprised of the brain and peripheral nervous system, is to respond to our external and internal environment, ensuring constant harmony and balanced function between all our organs. It is therefore affected by and influences all functions of the body. It is able to adapt to short term stress but can become depleted and vulnerable when under the influence of longer term mental, physical or chemical stress or trauma. When distressed the following nervous conditions may occur:
- Depression

- Stress and stress related conditions
- Palpitations
- Sleep disorders
- Headaches and Migraines
- Fatigue
- Neuropathies
- Pain
- Muscular spasm
- Hormonal disorders
- Digestive complaints

Therapies
Traditional Chinese Medicine focuses on improving your ability to adapt to stress providing courage, resilience and peace of mind when under the influence of constant stress or damaged by traumatic events. This creates a state of mind able to negotiate and rationally respond to life’s obstacles. Acupuncture stimulation of specific meridians is called for, primarily to build your kidneys, soothe your liver, calm your Shen (mind and spirit), resulting in regular neurotransmitter and hormonal activity.
