Women's Health
Acupuncture for Every Stage
Acupuncture has a long track record of supporting women through hormonal shifts, cycle irregularities, fertility challenges, and the transitions that come with pregnancy and menopause.
Â
I support women through every stage of life, from teen years and young adulthood through post‑menopause.
Â
My approach combines that tradition with what current research tells us actually works, so you get care that's grounded in evidence, not just tradition for its own sake.
Care for All Ages
At Acupuncture, I provide warm, clinically grounded care for women in all stages of life, including specialized support for menopause.
Cycle & Hormone Health
If you deal with painful periods, irregular cycles, PMS, or PCOS, acupuncture can be part of your care plan. Research on acupuncture for menstrual pain has shown meaningful reductions in pain intensity, in some studies performing comparably to NSAIDs over a few cycles of treatment. We'll work together on a plan built around your specific cycle patterns and symptoms, not a one-size-fits-all protocol.
Fertility Support
Whether you're trying to conceive naturally or alongside IVF or other fertility treatment, acupuncture can support the process by addressing stress, cycle regularity, and overall reproductive health. I'll always be upfront with you about what the evidence does and doesn't show for your specific situation. Fertility acupuncture isn't a guarantee, but it's a low-risk complement to the medical care you're already receiving.
Menopause Support
Hot flashes, sleep disruption, and mood changes are some of the most common reasons women come to acupuncture during perimenopause and menopause, and multiple clinical trials show it can meaningfully reduce hot flash frequency and severity while improving sleep and quality of life. It's a well-studied, low-risk option whether you're looking to avoid hormone therapy or use acupuncture alongside it. We'll build your plan around your specific symptoms and talk through what to expect.
Pregnancy & Postpartum
Acupuncture is commonly used throughout pregnancy for nausea, back and pelvic pain, and sleep issues, and postpartum for recovery, mood support, and rebuilding energy. Care is adjusted to where you are, trimester by trimester, or in the weeks and months after birth.
Comprehensive Care for Your Health
Women's health is one focus of my practice, but it's not the only thing I treat. I also work with patients on oncology support, pelvic health, and everyday pain, stress, and sleep issues. Explore the full range of services, or book a visit to talk through what's going on for you specifically.
