Acupuncture
--------------

Acting on areas of the brain known to reduce sensitivity to pain
and stress, as well as promoting relaxation and deactivating the
'analytical' brain, which is responsible for anxiety and worry.
Regulating levels of neurotransmitters (or their modulators) and
hormones such as serotonin, noradrenaline, dopamine, GABA,
neuropeptide Y and ACTH; hence altering the brain's mood
chemistry to help to combat negative affective states.
Stimulating production of endogenous opioids that affect the
autonomic nervous system. Stress activates the sympathetic
nervous system, while acupuncture can activate the opposing
parasympathetic nervous system, which initiates the relaxation
response.
Reversing pathological changes in levels of inflammatory
cytokines that are associated with anxiety.
Reversing stress-induced changes in behaviour and biochemistry.
