Menstrual Cycle

The cascade of hormonal changes that occur in a female's body each month are part of an intricate system. When these hormones are out of balance, menstrual cramps may occur, as well as increased sensitivity to emotional stresses, headaches or digestive complaints. Acupuncture and herbal treatments help regulate hormone levels and bring relief to a variety of menstrual symptoms.

Labor Preparation

Acupuncture is an amazing tool to help woman prepare both emotionally and physically to give birth. It calms the mind and relaxes the body. Research shows that when acupuncture treatments are administered weekly during the last 4 weeks of pregnancy, it can help decrease length of labor and need for medical interventions.

Menopause

By balancing hormone levels acupuncture brings relief to a variety of symptoms that accompany menopause such as hot flashes, low back pain, irritability, weight gain and fatigue.

Fertility Enhancement

We work along side couples on their journey to conceive, emotionally and physically, while regulating hormone levels required for conception. For thousands of years couples have been successfully treated for infertility with acupuncture and herbal medicine. Specific herbal formulas are prescribed in each phase of a women's cycle according to her specific symptoms. We recommend treatment for both partners to optimize fertility success.

Postpartum Care

In Chinese Medicine postpartum treatments are considered essential for a woman to build herself back up from pregnancy and birth. Home visits are available for the comfort of the mom and baby.
