Chinese Medicine can provide natural and effective relief of:

Premenstrual Syndrome
Endometriosis
Menstrual pain and bleeding irregularities
Emotional stress
Uterine fibroids
Pelvic inflammatory disease
Chronic yeast and urinary tract infections
Perimenopausal and Menopausal Syndromes

Incorporating acupuncture, herbal medicine and nutritional supplementation as well as simple dietary recommendations and lifestyle changes can help to balance and restore the hormonal system naturally. This can lessen or eliminate the need for medications and synthetic hormone replacement that can lead to further imbalances.


How can Chinese Medicine treat hormonal imbalances? Many hormonal problems are due to slight imbalances in the delicate endocrine system, which may alter a pathway by which the body produces and metabolizes hormones. The slightest irregularity or stressor can throw the entire system off so it no longer functions properly causing a cascade of symptoms for women. Research has shown that acupuncture influences these hormonal pathways, and assists our own internal energies to restore endocrine function.

Acupuncture can assist in correcting and fine tuning the complex interplay of hormonal signals of the hypothalamic-pituitary-gonadal axis, crucial to creating healthy hormonal responses.
