It is a complementary medicine method in terms of a holistic perspective in diagnosis and treatment while being close to modern medicine with local anesthetic and application techniques used. '' Neural therapy '' is used to mean to stimulate or stimulate the vegetative nervous system to achieve healing, and its mechanism of action is also explained through this system.
The vegetative (autonomic) nervous system is in our body a very wide network of electrical networks. This system consists of two different sections called sympathetic and parasympathetic systems, which operate differently but in harmony with each other.
The stimulus that starts from the zone you are practicing will start to heal at the same time in a very distant reflex area through the autonomic nervous system that surrounds your body like a network and within a few seconds. The duration of the anesthetic agent we apply to the body is 20 minutes, and the duration of the effect lasts for minutes even if a drug is administered intravenously. So this effect can not be the effect of medicine is that the autonomic nervous system, which starts a few seconds and causes a permanent healing, is regulated and the organs start to work in a healthy way.

How is acupuncture applied? How long will a session last and how many sessions will it take?
Various parts of the body are used in acupuncture treatment. The most common points of warning for many diseases are the arms, legs, back, abdomen and ear.
Information is provided to the acupuncture points of the human body that can reach almost every part of the organism with stimuli made by needles. This communication reaches cells from the acupuncture point to the nerve terminals of local cellular stimuli, and finally to the brain. The brain also transmits this stimulus to the necessary organs and improves the function disorders in the related organs and limbs.
Your body's self-repairing power is very high. Acupuncture points are known to certain warning points that act in this way in our bodies. By stimulating these points, the energy circulation is returned to normal and the disease state is lifted. Thus, the organism allows the disease to recover from its own possibilities. It is a treatment method for the cause, not the symptoms of the disease.
Each treatment is called a session. A session is between 15 and 30 minutes. Sessions are administered 2-3 times a week or once a week depending on the condition of the patient and the disease. The number of sessions depends on the condition of the patient and the patient.
Who can make acupuncture? Who can not?

But it will not apply to every disease, your doctor will tell you.

Is it possible to weaken with acupuncture?
Yeah. As is known, acupuncture is used in habit treatment. Since weight loss is also possible by changing eating habits and lifestyles, acupuncture provides a great deal of convenience to the patient during the acquisition of these new habits.
• Arrange for appetite and remove the motive to attack food.
• By controlling the acidity of the stomach, problems like stomach scratching and burning are prevented.
• Fatigue, which can be experienced due to low calorie feeding, is prevented.
• It regulates the rate of metabolism. The patient, who is treated with acupuncture, is able to lose weight more easily than his own diet.
• During acupuncture treatment, serotonin and endorphin levels increase in the body. These hormones provide sedation to the person who is on the diet. Thus, the dieter does not feel uneasy and uneasy due to the restriction of the taste of old food. The reason for the patient's ability to withstand long periods of time is due to the acupuncture effect sedative and tranquillizers. In addition, the patient is more motive to see the weight of the hand, this work is wrapped in four hands.
Is it possible to quit smoking?
Of course it is possible;
• First specify a specific day to quit smoking,
• Declare it on the street.
• Do not smoke for at least 12 hours before starting treatment and come to such treatment. Because if the body is examined while experiencing nicotine hunger, treatment will be started according to findings detected.
Addiction is a multifaceted phenomenon and treatment should be considered in many ways. For this reason I use acupuncture as well as other Complementary Medical Methods. Acupuncture relieves the person during the first week of hard-to-avoid pressure due to the repressive expression of the body that has been left without nicotine and continues to prepare a non-smoking hayata. Neural therapy is the detoxification of nicotine, that is, its rapid release and regulation of the body. Homeopathic solutions are also important for detoxification. SOE (singlet oxygene therapy) provides oxygenation of oxygen-free tissues due to cigarette smoking.
Magnetic Field Therapy also contributes to regulation by creating a Magnetic Field at the frequencies required by the body. A detoxified body will not have nicotine demand over time. Again, depending on the degree of smoking dependence, it may be necessary to add treatment to the referral method.
A total of 2 or 3 sessions is sufficient. When there is a high level of dependency, 3 sessions are needed. Session intervals should be at least 48-72 hours.
What is the precaution in acupuncture?
There is an acupuncture point for almost every aspect of the body at the ear. For example, a person's bowel, heart, and liver points are present in his ear.

The remote diagnosis and treatment method is called "Auriculomedicine".
What is body acupuncture? How is it applied?
In acupuncture treatment, back, neck, hand and other parts of the body are used. The areas with the most warning points for many diseases are lower arms and lower limbs.

The patient is laid in a quiet room and on a comfy bed, after 15-30 minutes waiting, the needles are removed and discarded. These sessions are repeated from 1 to 3 times a week. After 3-4 sessions, the status of the treatment can be determined by evaluating the condition.
