Melatonin is vital for your health, and here is why:

• It breaks down the active and energetic hormones in your body, allowing you to sleep and rest.
• As one of the most powerful anti-oxidants in your body, melatonin works at night. It goes thru all the cells in the body to clean out free radicals and toxins.
• Melatonin also slows down your system, allowing your vital organs to rest.

Since melatonin is dependent on your sleep. It is very important to get a restful night of sleep. By increasing levels of melatonin in the body, acupuncture is key factor for anti-aging and optimal health.

2. Acupuncture increases serotonin levels. This is your feel good chemical. It maintains your mood balance, a decrease amount of serotonin can lead to depression. Acupuncture sessions can uplift your mood leading to more happiness and a sense of peace.
