Common complaints

Restoring balance

Acupuncture is part of Traditional Chinese Medicine. This ancient medicine is based on the insight that physical and mental complaints arise from disturbances in the energy system of the body. With acupuncture, these disturbances can be corrected and the energy flow in your body is brought back into balance. Acupuncture encourages the body and mind to heal itself.

Burn Out

The feeling that you can't do any more and nothing helps. All your reserves are used up, no more energy. Survival and no more bright spot in your life.


Overload

Stress or tension is not an unhealthy feeling. It is the production of adrenaline when exciting and/or unexpected events occur. What makes it unhealthy is if it happens too often and if you have trouble getting out of the tension so you can't relax. And that affects body and mind.


Symptoms

Being overtired is one of the main symptoms, but negative self-image is also very common in burnout. Because your whole person, both physically and mentally, is under a lot of pressure and gets little energy, you can develop all kinds of complaints such as: headaches, dizziness, nausea, irritability, nervousness, gastrointestinal problems, hyperventilation, menstrual and potency disorders, increased blood pressure, increased cholesterol levels, skin problems, crazy taste in the mouth, eye and ear problems. Of course, this is different for each individual.
