Multiple medical conditions,
a single solution
Scientifically proven, effective and without side-effects, medical acupuncture treats a wide range of conditions with amazing results: it strengthens the immune system, prevents the onset of disease and accelerates the healing process. It exerts high analgesic, anti-inflammatory, anxiolytic and antidepressant powers. It has also been shown to stimulate the production of neurotransmitters and endorphins. Acupuncture also treats chronic diseases by reducing both their intensity and effects.
Which pathologies are treated by medical acupuncture?
Overweight and obesity
Acupuncture restores the body's natural balance by exerting an influence on the endocrine systems that regulate it, and helps reduce feelings of hunger. More than 20 years of research and scientific studies have demonstrated that the Sinomedica Shou Shen® program, combining weekly acupuncture sessions and a diet, is effective in helping patients to reach their ideal weight without feeling hungry.
Stress, anxiety and burnout
In cases of stress-related symptoms like sleep disorders, anxiety and concentration problems, but also when it comes to serious conditions such as burnout and depression, acupuncture helps significantly reduce symptoms and bring better balance. In general, it makes one feel better and uplifted, improving quality of life.
