How can acupuncture treat gynecological problems?
A – In the treatment of gynecological concerns, acupuncture begins most often by balancing a woman’s endocrine system through the unblocking of energy based on individual pattern diagnosis. The effects of this are registered most often through changes in the menstrual cycle or the alleviation of uncomfortable symptoms. As opposed to commonly used therapies by Western medicine that can be invasive or cause side effects, acupuncture will do neither. This is not to say the acupuncture is recommended in place of Western medicine, but is a great adjunct where Western medicine treatments impose significant stress on the body or provide ineffective treatment. Many conditions may be treated. For a complete list of what we commonly treat here at the Gynecology Center click here.
