🌿 How Acupuncture Supports Your Immune System 🌿

Acupuncture has been shown in research to regulate the immune response by balancing inflammation and strengthening the body’s natural defenses. Studies suggest it:

✅ Increases production of immune cells like natural killer (NK) cells, which fight off infections.
✅ Modulates inflammatory markers (like cytokines), helping the body respond more effectively without overreacting.
✅ Improves circulation and reduces stress, which are both key for immune health.

In Traditional Chinese Medicine, acupuncture strengthens “Wei Qi” (defensive energy), which protects the body from illness; similar to how we think about immunity today.

✨ The result: a stronger, more resilient body better able to adapt to stress and fight off sickness.

Looking to help support your body through cold & flu season? We would be happy to help!
