Feeling Tired of Being Tired?

Many of us work very hard and some of us also play hard. Without proper nutrition and rest, this kind of lifestyle can leave us feeling tired and in some instances, even slightly depressed. The body can take only so much stress. Whether it is psychological or physical stress, our body’s response usually tells us it’s had enough. Now the struggle between our mind, which won’t succumb to the body’s message, and our precious body who continues functioning without being heard begins. This kind of pattern comes into our south Austin clinic every week. The answer to the question of “why am I so tired” usually lies in a lack of physical awareness combined with a less than ideal diet and the outcome is exhaustion on many levels. This scenario can be turned around with acupuncture, Chinese herbs, some good lifestyle advice, and nutritional support. The amount of time it takes for the patient to feel results varies depending on the length of time the pattern has been in place, but usually in a couple of weeks their energy level begins to return to normal. We have successfully treated many Austin residents with this imbalance; so if this sounds familiar, give us a call.
