Irregular Menstruation & Painful Periods

Having a regular, predictable and on time cycle is not only supportive of good mental and physical wellbeing, but is also an indicator of healthy fertility. In Chinese medicine we believe that menstrual regularity is a sign of a proper functioning reproductive system. Contrary to popular belief, a woman’s menstrual period should not be painful or debilitating. Using acupuncture and Chinese herbs, we work to balance the hormonal system to promote your body’s natural rhythm so there isn’t a need to be dependent on pain medication or birth control as a means of coping. Using a team approach, we will identify the root cause of your issue and guide you through proper care and lifestyle adjustments necessary for menstrual and pelvic health.

We work with women experiencing PCOS, Ammenhorea, Dysmennorhea, Spotting between cycles, Uterine Fibroids, Ovarian Cysts, Recurrent Yeast or Bladder Infections and HPV. 

Perimenopause & Menopause

In Chinese medicine, we view menopause as a physical, emotional and spiritual transition into the next season of a woman’s life and believe that nourishing the body during this time is essential. Common symptoms associated with menopause such as hot flashes, night sweats, irritability, brain fog or emotional overwhelm can be managed and lessened with the help of herbal medicine, regular acupuncture sessions and lifestyle care. We offer you the care and tools to feel well supported during this natural phase of life.
