WOMEN'S MEDICINE

GYNECOLOGY

Chinese Medicine, including acupuncture and herbal medicine, excels at relieving symptoms of a great number of gynecological complaints. And more, a woman's general state of health improves as gynecological problems are relieved. This is true for her entire adulthood and into the post-menopausal years.

Whether symptoms are mild in nature, such as PMS, or severe and long-standing, treating your gynecological complaints will make an improvement in the quality of your life.

Please call for a free consultation to see if Chinese medicine is suitable for successful treatment of your symptoms.

FERTILITY

Are you thinking about having a baby? A six-month preparation period will create the conditions for fertility by creating optimal hormone cycles and improving the quality of eggs.

Would- be mothers can take comfort from a Finnish study that showed that it's the quality of the embryo-not the age of the woman-that determines the success of pregnancy.

Further, by rediscovering peace, calm and openness you will help restore balance in your body and your fertility. Did you know that during periods of high stress a woman's body produces oxytocin, a hormone that helps to prevent pregnancy?

Regular acupuncture treatments prior to conception will keep your mind and body calm and balanced to help you conceive.

Fertility treatment takes a more gradual, gentle approach, without undesirable side-effects and high costs of traditional fertility treatment, but treatment with acupuncture will also enhance your chances of conceiving while undergoing traditional fertility treatment.

MENOPAUSE

The peri-menopause and menopausal years present the opportunity to keep you vital and energetic through these important years. At the time of life when a woman knows who she is and benefits from the wisdom of accumulated life experiences, balancing hormones, energy, stress symptoms, nutrition and diet all have a profound effect on keeping menopausal symptoms manageable and keeping your health and energy level on track for the future.
