Menstrual and Gynecological Disorders, Including PMS

One of the strengths of Chinese Medicine is its ability to treat gynecological issues because its diagnostics are so specific; therefore, the root of the problem is apparent and can be easily treated. This can include menstrual difficulties, pelvic disorders, hormonal imbalances, and PMS/PMDD. Acupuncture is an essential tool for addressing any menstrual difficulty you may have been experiencing, whether it is a new problem or a very old one. Many women are put on oral contraceptives to regulate their periods in one way or another; with regular acupuncture treatment, cycles can change quickly and many of these bothersome symptoms can be relieved, either decreasing or eliminating the need for pharmaceutical treatment or surgery.
