There are about 8 million Americans
that are afflicted with depression. Depression is a mood disorder
characterized by both physical and psychological symptoms that can be
detrimental to one's normal daily functioning. Depressed individuals often
suffer from poor sleeping habits, crying spells, anxiety, worry, poor memory,
inability to concentrate, body aches, stomach disturbances and a lack of
interest in activities previously enjoyed.
Acupuncture and Chinese herbs is a
very effective to treat depression, anxiety, stress-induced fatigue and
emotions swings resulting in long-term benefits. Acupuncture and Chinese
herbal treatment treat the root cause of the disease-the internal imbalance
caused by the exposure to external stress. Such stress, if not treated,
can cause energy "blockage" or changes of the neurotransmitters such
as a decrease of brain concentration of the serotonin levels-resulting in
symptoms such as anxiety, poor sleep, fatigue, and eventually, depression. If
