WOMEN'S HEALTH
SERVICES
About 15% of couples trying to conceive struggle from infertility. It can affect men and women equally. Acupuncture is one of the most effective, natural, and affordable options to help with fertility problems. Especially when combined with assisted reproductive technologies like IVF or IUI, Acupuncture can help to improve chances of conception by up to 40%.
FERTILITY
PRENATAL CARE
Pregnancy, a joyous and exciting experience, can also come with some downright uncomfortable symptoms. From morning sickness to heartburn, swelling in the limbs to back pain, Acupuncture can help pregnant women alleviate many of these unpleasant effects. Acupuncture is very safe during pregnancy and is a noninvasive and all natural alternative compared to taking medication.
​
Acupuncture can even help with miscarriage prevention, breech baby presentation, and even help to induce labor when the time is right.
Many women experience irregular menstruation, where the bleeding is either too heavy, too light, too long, or too short. Spotting mid-cycle, or painful periods and heavy PMS symptoms can all be part of irregular menstruation. Irregular menstruation can also be tied to certain metabolic disorders, such as problems with thyroid, polycystic ovarian syndrome, or blood sugar imbalance.
​
Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine can help to normalize your menstrual cycle by reducing stress, balancing your metabolic and endocrine systems, and stabilizing hormonal fluctuations to help with the natural healthy flow of your cycle.
IRREGULAR MENSTRUATION
MENOPAUSE
Women can often experience very unpleasant effects in Menopause, including hot flashes, night sweats, irritability, and weight gain. Lesser known symptoms that still affect many women are insomnia, thirst, vaginal dryness, loss of libido, lack of concentration and dry/brittle hair.
Menopause can sometimes last for over 10 years! Besides hormone replacement therapy, which has varying degrees of success but with some truly terrifying potential side effects, including cancer, blood clots, and increased risk of heart attack and stroke, there is very little western medicine can offer for menopausal symptoms.

Acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine help to ease most symptoms of menopause by naturally balancing out your hormones, reducing stress, and restoring balance to your endocrine system.
