Can acupuncture treat emotional problems?
Acupuncture and Chinese Herbs can treat many types of emotional problems. Acupuncture is often used in emergency situations. Acupuncturists Without Borders and teams of local acupuncturists assist in post-traumatic treatment of disaster survivors. Acupuncturists were part of the disaster relief efforts after 9/11 and Hurricane Katrina. There is now a “battlefield acupuncture” protocol being used for soldiers in Iraq. Acupuncture detox has long been used for drug and alcohol addiction, and for smoking cessation.
