General Women’s Health

Due to the modern day stresses of today’s lifestyles, many women are afflicted with conditions that can affect their fragile reproductive system, and ultimately impact their level of fertility. Because the conditions can be so closely linked to lifestyle and diet, Chinese medicine aims to examine your symptoms in relation to the larger macrocosm of your body, both physically and emotionally. Chinese medicine and acupuncture are firmly rooted in over 5,000 years of tradition. As a complete medical system, it has managed to remain flexible, treating diseases as they have compounded through time while developing innovative protocols for new complex syndromes. This strong historical background allows for practitioners to draw on a wide variety of resources to rebalance a woman’s delicate reproductive system, often spurring resolution of a wide variety of conditions.
