Herb + Ōhm Anxiety and Depression
Herb + Ōhm is a luxury integrative medicine practice rooted in the wisdom of Traditional Chinese Medicine, adapted to the needs of modern Chicagoans. Our practice nurtures the mind, body, and spirit through Acupuncture + Chinese Herbal Medicine, while recognizing the value and offerings of Western medicine.
Acupuncture and Traditional Chines Medicine (TCM) can bring lasting relief to patients suffering from anxiety, stress, and depression. Acupuncture treats these conditions by stimulating the brain to release natural “feel good” chemicals (endorphins and serotonin) in the body. This process helps patients who may be stuck in a stressed out state return to a state of relaxation and emotional balance.
At Herb + Ōhm, we provide our patients with a full healing and sensory experience, resulting in a more relaxed state of mind and body. So our patients not only benefit from acupuncture, but also from the hour of quiet time, relaxation, and investment in self.
Our practice was specifically designed to enhance relaxation and comfort for our patients. Each treatment room includes a variety of subtle details intended to help our patients leave their daily stress and pressure at the door:
Memory foam face cradles providing optimal support for your face and neck
Special tables for patients who are pregnant or who have recently given birth
Fully adjustable room temperature
Infrared heat lamps to enhance blood flow and stimulate healing
Handheld bells to immediately alert our team if assistance is needed during treatment
