What Is Acupuncture and How Does It Help in Recovery

A Natural Path to Healing and Balance

Acupuncture is a traditional Chinese medicine technique involving the placement of thin needles at targeted points on the body. These points stimulate the nervous system, release tension, and activate the body’s self-healing processes. In addiction recovery, acupuncture can:

  • Ease withdrawal symptoms like nausea, insomnia, and restlessness

  • Reduce cravings and improve emotional stability

  • Enhance sleep and overall nervous system function

  • Promote calmness for deeper engagement in therapy

This drug-free therapy plays a vital role in supporting the body and mind during every stage of recovery.
