Magnesium is an abundant mineral present in our bodies, and acts as a cofactor for over 300 enzymatic systems that regulate diverse biochemical reactions in the body, including protein synthesis, muscle and nerve function, blood glucose control, and blood pressure regulation. Magnesium is required for energy production, oxidative phosphorylation, and glycolysis. It contributes to the structural development of bone and is required for the synthesis of DNA, RNA, and the antioxidant glutathione. Insomnia, anxiety, digestion issues, muscle pain, joint pain, and the list goes on and on. The benefits of magnesium are never ending and it is truly one of the most recommended supplements in my practice for everyone.

Acupuncture is a form of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) in which practitioners stimulate specific points on the body by inserting thin needles into the skin. Acupuncture points stimulate Qi, which is believed to be a flow of energy throughout the body responsible for our overall health. If Qi is not in equilibrium, our immune system is weakened, thereby causing sickness and disease. By stimulating certain points, Qi can be restored, improving general wellness and any adverse symptoms that may be experienced during the disruption of energy in the body.
