Three Paths to Inner Peace: How Vital Nutrients, Reflex Zones, and Acupuncture Help Against Stress

Orthomolecular Medicine

In addition to medicinal plants, orthomolecular medicine also plays an important role. Magnesium, iron, and potassium are particularly noteworthy here. These minerals have a stabilizing effect on the autonomic nervous system under stress. For vegetative-neurological movement disorders, vitamins from the B-complex, as well as vitamins C and D and coenzyme Q10, are recommended..

Alternative Therapy Methods 

Foot Reflexology

The healing knowledge of foot reflexology has been known for a long time. It is a manual technique based on the theory that specific areas of the feet — the so-called reflex zones — correspond to particular organs and body parts. By stimulating these zones, the body’s self-healing powers can be activated and overall well-being improved. It also promotes circulation, relieves stress, relaxes the body, mind, and soul, and improves sleep quality.

Ear Acupuncture

Ear acupuncture is considered an energetic technique. It stimulates the body’s and mind’s self-healing powers, offering physical and emotional balance and stability. It also reduces stress and anxiety, promotes relaxation and inner calm, and strengthens mental resilience.
