Women’s Health
Women's health and Gynecology has been a major topic of Chinese Medicine in the last three millennia. We have a wealth of information on disease pathology and treatment for every stage of women's health. Acupuncture and Chinese herbs support and regulate the production of hormones, promoting your health and bringing your body back to balance.
We emphasize on a healthy menstrual cycle, occurring every 21-35 days and lasting between 3-7 days, and a smooth, comfortable flow, without pain. Any long term stagnation during the period, such as clots, excessively heavy or too little flow, painful cycles, and emotional mood swings shows evidence of imbalance in the body that can potentially lead to gynecological issues.
In addition, there are numerous studies on the success of acupuncture as a treatment for fertility, both for women trying to conceive with or without IVF.
The following conditions are commonly treated effectively with acupuncture:
Amenorrhea (absence of menstruation)
Dysmenorrhea (menstrual pain)
Fibrocystic breast
Fertility
Menopause
Miscarriage
PMS (premenstrual symptoms)
Polycystic ovarian syndrome
Pregnancy care (nausea, lower back pain, etc.)
Uterine fibroids
Urinary tract infection
Vaginal discharge
Vaginitis
Yeast infection
