Can Acupuncture Help with SAD?

Seasonal Affective Disorder (SAD) and the magic of needles

As the light fades and the clocks go back, some of us feel it more deeply — the dip in energy, the rise in overthinking, and a shadow that’s hard to name.

That’s SAD (Seasonal Affective Disorder) — a change in mood driven by lack of daylight, disrupting melatonin, serotonin and your internal rhythm. Symptoms range from low mood and sleep disruption to fuzzy thinking, fatigue, and immune dips.

The fix? A little light, a little acupuncture.

Acupuncture works to regulate your nervous system, improve sleep, and boost mood-supporting hormones like serotonin and melatonin. We also focus on the Lung meridian, strengthening your immunity and what the ancients called Wei Qi (think: your energetic immune coat).

Need a reset? We’ve got you.
