Headache and dizziness are the most common side effects associated with HIV treatment. Acupuncture as well can be used to reduce inflammation which has been caused by the HIV virus. Studies have shown that acupuncture is capable of reducing this inflammation. The needles inserted in the body through specific pressure points, enable the nerves to soothe inflammation and swelling. HIV patients have been suffering from many infections which the body isn’t able to fight against. Acupuncture can also help HIV patients with symptoms of nausea and muscle pain. Also stimulating the nerves in specific body points with the needles might help stressed and anxious patients.
Acupuncture does not alter the body functioning either does it react with the other medications you might take. It is meant to relieve your side effects and improve the working of your immune system. HIV patients can also use natural herbs if they think they will help them, or relaxation methods like yoga and massage to help with managing the stress they feel.
