This stimulation sends signals to the spinal cord and brain, triggering the release of chemicals such as endorphins, serotonin, and dopamine.

Additionally, acupuncture can influence the autonomic nervous system, which controls involuntary bodily functions like heart rate and digestion.

This simple exercise using the breath has amazing effects on relieving allergy symptoms, improving the immune response to both colds/flus, and for many auto-immune conditions. The breathing technique featured here, increases Nitric Oxide; regulates the immune system, warms the body, and opens the pores to stimulate sweating. Use it when you have early symptoms of a cold or flu, sinus allergies, post-nasal drip, or are suffering from an auto-immune condition.
