How does acupuncture Help with such a Wide Variety of SymPtoms? 
The fundamental principle is that acupuncture helps your body activate it's own healing potential. Current scientific explanations for how acupuncture works include activating dopamine responses, balancing biochemical and neurological responses and increasing blood flow. Additionally, acupuncture can free restrictions in the fascia and muscles to alleviate pain and improve function. 

The body is capable of healing itself, be it a broken bone, strained muscle, or even deeper problems with the various organs or neurological systems.  When the body is not functioning as well as it should, it may not heal very quickly or as effectively, and sometimes it is so depleted, it cannot heal at all. Acupuncture can help by boosting the body's own healing capacity so that you become more capable of recovery. Simply put, acupuncture aids the body’s natural recuperative capabilities.
