You know that kind of nap where you don’t know where you went or how long you were there, but when the acupuncturist gently wakes you up, you feel reborn and ready to face life…

That’s often how clients describe their treatment!

Come to our community acupuncture lounge and leave feeling centered, balanced, renewed and … reborn.

Hi! My name is Laura, and I’m one of the acupuncturists at Flux Acupuncture Lounge.

GB 40 is one of my favorite acupuncture points to use in treatment. The GB channel traverses the entire length of the lateral sides of the body, and since one end of the channel treats the opposite end of the channel, needling GB 40 has an effect on the sides of the head.

I like to think of GB 40 as massaging the sides of the head- which is deeply relaxing, alleviates anxiety, is balancing, and calming for the mind. 💆🏻‍♀️

GB 40 is used to treat ankle injuries, and that is how I first came to know this point- through a chronic bad ankle- but I eventually started learning how to also use this point for emotional and mental well-being, as a healthy GB channel can inform good sleep and a calm mind.

GB 40 is definitely one of my favorite superstar points!
Come see Laura for acupuncture at our Santa Cruz location on Thursdays, Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays!
