Acupuncture that Heals You from the Root
A Holistic Path to Healing the Root Cause
As a Trauma-Informed Practitioner, Natanel (Nir) recognizes that emotional trauma or Intense emotional events can have a long lasting effect on our bodies and on our nervous system.
When an emotional injury remains unresolved, it leaves a lasting imprints on the nervous system. In the language of TCM (Traditional Chinese Medicine), these chronic emotional states act as ‘internal pathogens’, gradually impeding the energy of the internal organs and disrupting the body’s flow of healthy ‘QI’.
To address these deep-seated "internal pathogens" Natanel integrates Acupuncture treatments (TCM, Japanese style, 5 Phases style) & NLP methods to heal and balance the emotions.
-
Acupuncture: To ground, balance, regulate and strengthen the Chinese Meridian System, Internal Organs and the Nervous System.
-
Neuro-Linguistic Programming (NLP): To help rewrite subconscious "programs" that keep the body in a state of stress or emotional reactivity..
-
Guided Imagery: To create a safe container to access subconscious emotional information so it can be reframed and healed.
Accessing internal resources for healing chronic health conditions
By combining these approaches, together we are able to help symptoms but also to address the emotional root cause that is affecting the capacity of the person to heal.
Addressing root causes can support healing from chronic health issues that were previously non responsive to therapy.
When you come for a session, Acupuncture can be practiced as an effective stand alone modality to help you with stress, pain, nervous system dysregulation or to help manage a chronic health condition.
If you are aware of an emotional trauma from your past or curious if a chronic health condition is related to an emotional injury, we can explore together these aspect of your healing journey using NLP methods.

– Attributed to Traditional Wisdom
In my experience, Acupuncture is exceptionally effective at resolving conditions rooted in stress, emotional imbalance, and nervous system 'Holding Patterns'.
Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) teaches us that an illness can have an emotional root cause, this emotional root cause can have a role in keeping the illness from healing.
By accessing, witnessing and healing our emotions we can free up healing resources for the body to use in order achieve more effective and long lasting healing.
Emotions as root causes for illness
While external factors like wind, cold, or dampness can affect us, TCM identifies the Seven Emotions as the primary drivers of internal disease. When emotions—such as anger, grief, or fear—become intense, chronic, or suppressed, they cease to be natural expressions and instead become "Internal pathogens."
Emotions Vs. Internal Organ Energetics
Each emotion resonates with a specific organ system. When an emotional state becomes a chronic it can disrupt the flow of Qi (vital energy) into an organ system, which eventually will cause physical symptoms to the corresponding organ system or on the path of the meridian that relates to the organ / or on the tissue layer that this organ nourished.
-
Anger & Frustration injure the Liver / Gall Bladder ( side of body, joints)
-
Overstimulation & over joy, injure the Heart ( Cardiac, dizziness, emotional disregulation)
-
Worry & Pensiveness injure the Spleen. (digestion, fatigue, sugar metabolism, muscles)
-
Sadness & Grief injure the Lungs. (skin, constipation, asthma)
-
Fear & Fright injure the Kidneys. ( lower back pain, bone pain, adrenal fatigue)
From Emotional Injury to Physical Symptoms
Strong emotional events can leave a lasting imprint on nervous system in this in turn both can affect the energetic function of our internal organ and also create tension and pathology in our musculoskeletal system.
When the body is not able to release emotional information that is stored in the tissue / Brain / nervous system, it uses its own resource to keep that information 'repressed' in the body. This holding - stagnation , can impede the flow of QI in chronic way that might lead to physical symptoms and might lead to illness.
Examples for such holding patterns that can be related to emotional events
-
Chronic neck and shoulder tension or any chronic tension that appeared after an intense emotional event
-
Tension headaches and migraines
-
Persistent lower back pain
-
Digestive distress and "nervous" stomach, acid reflux
-
Chronic fatigue and depleted vitality
-
Chronic issues with sleep
-
Feeling constantly emotionally dysregulated, brain fog, reactive, easily triggered
-
Numbness, tingling, bad circulation, chronic pain with no apparnt reason.
