Benefits of catgut-embedding for Pain Management

• Natural Pain Relief: Using Catgut embedding to stimulate specific acupoints can effectively relieve pain. This method works by affecting the brain areas that control serotonin, a neurotransmitter involved in mood regulation, and by releasing endorphins, the body's natural pain-relieving chemicals.

• Reduced side effects: As a natural, non-invasive treatment, acupuncture eliminates or • decreases the amount of painkillers and medication you need to take, thus avoids the side effects and risks associated with conventional painkillers. This makes it a safer option for long-term pain management.

• Holistic approach: Acupuncture treats pain not as an isolated symptom, but as part of the body's overall energy flow. Beyond pain relief, acupuncture/ Catgut embedding improves overall health by reducing stress, enhancing blood circulation, reducing inflammation, enhancing sleep, and boosting the immune system. 

• Complementary to conventional treatments:  Far from being an either/or choice, acupuncture can be used in conjunction with conventional treatments, potentially improving outcomes and offering a more comprehensive approach to managing pain.

And all of these things can have a positive effect on your perception of pain and your tolerance to pain. Catgut-embedding can provide benefits without many side effects when used as part of an overall pain management strategy.

The scientific basis of the effectiveness of acupuncture/ Catgut embedding on Pain Relief

• Endorphin release: One of the key factors in acupuncture's ability to relieve pain is its ability to stimulate the release of endorphins, which are the body's natural pain relievers. These chemicals are produced by the brain and nervous system. They play a critical role in blocking pain signals and promoting a sense of well-being.

• Modulation of nervous system activity: Acupuncture is thought to modulate the activity of the nervous system, specifically affecting the areas that are involved in the perception and processing of pain. This modulation may help to reduce the intensity of the pain signals that are transmitted throughout the body.

• Improved Blood Circulation: facilitates the healing process in injured tissues and reduce inflammation, which can further contribute to the reduction of pain
