Speaker A (in a YouTube interview titled "Maegan Hodge | Unlocking the Nervous System: The Magic of Acupuncture") describes clinical observations that acupuncture helps rebalance the sympathetic and parasympathetic nervous systems. Speaker A notes imaging studies showing predictable brain activation from acupuncture, and describes combining acupuncture with frequency-specific microcurrent programs to achieve balance and symptom relief.

Chapters

Acupuncture can be really incredibly beneficial in terms of helping rebalance the two sides of the sympathetic nervous system, the parasympathetic and sympathetic. And why that is, you know, remains yet to be discovered. But we see it when we give patients acupuncture. And, you know, there's studies now where the acupuncture is lighting up certain parts of the brain pretty predictably. And so we know that acupuncture is interfacing with the nervous system, and we're kind of working on understanding how. So I'll employ strategies. I'll use acupuncture, and I'll use often something called frequency specific microcurrent. And I have certain programs that I'll run for people that seems to provide that type of balance and relief.
