If your shoulders are always tight, your jaw is often clenched, or you carry tension like it’s just part of life… it may have become your normal.
But chronic tension is often a sign that the nervous system has been under pressure for too long.
Stress doesn’t only affect the mind, it often shows up physically in the body through tight muscles, poor sleep, headaches, irritability and fatigue.
Acupuncture helps regulate the nervous system and support the body out of that constant “holding” pattern.
If tension has become your baseline, your body may be asking for support.
