​ Acupuncture for Healthy Menstrual Cycles

​Society has taught us to believe that having pain during our periods is just a normal part of being a woman. This simply isn't true. Painful and irregular cycles are signs that something is out of balance in your system. Many young girls and women are prescribed birth control to treat menstrual pain and irregularities, but this technique only masks the symptoms, leaving the underling cause of the imbalance untreated. Prolonged underlying hormonal imbalances can contribute to the development of ovarian cysts, fibroids and even issues with fertility in the future. The wonderful news is that Traditional Chinese Medicine is unmatched in its ability to naturally restore health and balance to a woman's cycle. 

Chinese Medicine works by addressing the root cause of painful and irregular periods, and naturally restoring health and balance to the menstrual cycle. If you experience any pain, discomfort, or irregularities associated with your menstrual cycle, we would love to share our experience and knowledge of these traditional healing techniques to help you heal, thrive and begin to celebrate your menstrual cycle.
