Natural Relief for Anxiety Without Xanax: Herbal Medicine and Acupuncture in Beaverton
The growing concern over the dangers of Xanax and other benzodiazepines has sparked an urgent search for safer, non-addictive treatments for anxiety. At Kihyon Sohn Acupuncture in Beaverton, we provide a natural, holistic approach using traditional herbal medicine and gentle acupuncture to help patients regain calm, clarity, and emotional balance—without the risks of drug dependence.

The Hidden Cost of Xanax
Xanax has been widely prescribed for anxiety and panic disorders across the U.S., including here in Beaverton and Portland. While it can offer short-term relief, many patients experience long-term harm:
- Physical dependence
- Severe withdrawal symptoms
- Memory and concentration issues
- Emotional numbing or emotional volatility
For many, tapering off Xanax leads to even more distress than the anxiety it was meant to treat. These struggles have led many to seek safer, holistic alternatives.
Herbal Medicine: Rooted in Tradition, Backed by Experience
Traditional Asian herbal medicine has been used for centuries to address anxiety, restlessness, sleep disturbances, and emotional imbalance. At our clinic in Beaverton, custom herbal prescriptions are designed to support your nervous system, balance your body, and strengthen resilience naturally.
Unlike pharmaceutical sedatives, these herbal formulas do not suppress your body’s signals—they help regulate them.
Gentle Acupuncture to Calm the Nervous System
Our gentle acupuncture technique uses the thinnest needles possible and focuses on regulating the body’s internal pulses. When the nervous system is overloaded—whether from stress, trauma, or medication withdrawal—acupuncture helps calm the mind, ease tension, and restore inner balance.
Many of our patients report:
- Reduced anxiety and racing thoughts
- Better, deeper sleep
- More emotional clarity
- Improved resilience to daily stressors
