Facial Acupuncture
“Non surgical process that connect your face and inner well being”
This is a favorite among stars such as Angelina Jolie, Gwyneth Paltrow, and Jennifer Aniston.
By stimulating facial acupuncture points, you are able to regenerate your youthful look without the interference that often comes from medical procedures.
Facial acupuncture works with the energy of the body to help reduce fine lines and wrinkles, improve muscle tone and give you a beautiful overall glow and complexion.
Receiving facial acupuncture points immediately begins to regenerate how you look, allowing you to experience the fountain of youth with natural stimulation while improving the energy flow to your face.
Facial Acupuncture is a full constitutional treatment that views the face as an extension of the meridians of the body, which flow from the soles of the feet to the crown of the head.
How Facial Acupuncture Points Work
An example of “full constitutional treatment” is a patient come for break out and dark spots on her chin. I don’t just give her the cream to put on her face but with my diagnosis, it might be from too much heat or stagnation of liver qi in the body. Acupuncture can reduce the heat in your body and also improve free flow of energy.
By working with specific facial acupuncture points with our acupuncture services Parksville, BC, it is possible to not only improve the cosmetic look of an individual, but to find other regions of the body which need rebalanced. This is a part of the unique science of acupuncture which offers complete regeneration.
Facial also can improve blood circulation to the face and “excercise facial muscle“. When the face is needled, blood flow and qi carries nutrients to the cell; the body interprets the insertion of the needle as a “positive” injury (micro trauma), which, in turn, through stimulation of fibroblasts, can increase collagen output.
When needles are inserted at pressure points, energy and endorphins are released. This minor trauma improves blood flow and stimulates cell-regrowth and encourage the production of healing collagen, the protein which the body uses to keep the skin youthful and elastic.
The blood flow and oxygen to these areas will be increased. The skin will then plum out and regenerate.
By using facial acupuncture points, you immediately begin to see the results with regeneration of the face. More important, other areas of the body which may seem imbalanced are able to balance and assist with your overall health and well-being.
