Traditional Chinese Medicine can be especially effective treating many gynecological symptoms which we have been raised to think of as "normal" - but only because so many women have them... they have become the "norm". However, according to Chinese Medicine, periods do not have to be painful, we do not need to "settle" for heavy periods, we do not necessarily have to have PMS and our cycles can be regular. Many women over the years have sought treatment, either by themselves or were referred to us by their OB/GYN doctors for pain, endometriosis, amenorrhea, uterine bleeding, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, premenstrual syndrome, mood swings, hormonal migraines and irregular periods. We experience excellent results with these women.
Acupuncture and Chinese herbs work together to help women with these imbalances. It takes approximately three cycles to treat a woman's gynecological system.
Acupuncture and Chinese herbs have treated fertility for thousands of years. The earliest records detailing the benefits of traditional Chinese medicine for increasing fertility are found in Chinese medical literature from 11 AD. These techniques regulate the menstrual cycle, invigorate the sperm and enhance the whole body's function.
As such, premenstrual syndrome, amenorrhea, endometriosis, blocked fallopian tubes, immune system incongruities and infertility-related hormonal imbalances in women improve with our approach. In men, Chinese herbal formulas which "tonify the essence" are especially useful in increasing sperm count and motility.
The highly technical and expensive methods used in Western Medicine are well-supported by Traditional Chinese Medicine; these two forms of medicine are especially complementary.
