  Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine has been practiced for 3,000 years and continues to maintain their effectiveness during modern times. Treatment, using herbal formulas and/or acupuncture, is geared toward returning the body to a state of balance, thus, preventing the progression of disease. Acupuncture is safe, effective, and deeply relaxing. Thin, sterile needles are inserted at specific points of the body, addressing organic disorders as well as emotional issues. The World Health Organization endorses the use of acupuncture to treat many acute and chronic health disorders.

  Women's Health involves balancing the hormonal system and learning how to understand the energetic female body from PMS through menopause. Some conditions addressed are irregular menstruation, uterine fibroids, ovarian cysts, endometriosis and symptoms of menopause.

  Reproductive Healthcare addresses preconception and infertility, pregnancy, birth
and post-partum wellness.

Preconception & Infertility: In the Chinese medical model, the first trimester is considered to be three months prior to conception, demonstrating the importance of cleansing the body, creating a fertile environment for conception to occur. Treatments have helped many women who are having difficulty getting pregnant.

Pregnancy: Within the 1st half of pregnancy, the body's blood volume doubles and ligaments stretch; this rapid transformation puts strain on the body. Treatments alleviate the symptoms and discomfort, which may accompany this transition, while optimizing the potential for what is to come.

Birth: The birthing process requires a mother to release tension, let go of fear and trust the experience, allowing spirit to move through the body. Acupuncture and herbs are a natural approach to treat breech presentation, stimulate labor and support a healthy birth experience.

Post-partum wellness: While midwives and doctors consider six weeks sufficient time to recover from the birth process, mothering an infant requires more energy than does pregnancy. With the demands of an infant, many women fail to nourish themselves. Naturopathic care, acupuncture and bodywork treat fatigue, depression, anxiety, milk supply, and yeast issues associated with post-partum wellness.
