| Nervous System | |
| The brain and nervous system are involved in every aspect of our lives. There are many ways that we directly address nervous system health here at Paris Healing Arts. Laura Paris uses acupuncture to calm the sympathetic nervous system in order to reduce stress (acute stress from a traumatic event, or chronic stress). Stress is known to have a harmful effect on many aspects of health. To read more about the effects of stress click here. Acupuncture is also used for pain reduction by provoking a release of the body's own pain-relieving neurotransmitters. Laura also analyzes hormones and neurotransmitters levels. Often there is a deficiency or excess of these important chemical messengers, and balancing them through acupuncture and specific nutritional prescriptions can have a profound effect for people with anxiety, sleep problems, depression, low energy, chronic stress, addictions, and more. Building neurotransmitter deficiencies can specifically have a positive effect on how the brain can remember, learn, and pay attention, as well as preventing age-related brain deterioration.

Seth Paris uses the Feldenkrais Method to work with children and adults with a variety of neurological conditions. For adults this can include conditions such as cerebral palsy, multiple sclerosis, brain injuries, stroke rehabilitation, and Parkinson's. For children this can include birth trauma, brain injuries, neuro-developmental delays, cerebral palsy, and many types of sensory-motor difficulties. The Feldenkrais Method works by improving the way the brain and nervous system communicate with the musculo-skeletal system through movement.
