Women's
Health
Acupuncture is an effective treatment for women of all ages, regulating
menses, easing discomfort and pain, soothing the tension of PMS and
taking the heat out of the menopause. It safely complements
conventional medicine and is recognised to assist in the treatment of
many gynaecological problems and aids fertility/pregnancy. If you are
receiving conventional treatment but are interested in receiving
acupuncture, please do not hesitate to contact me or speak to your
consultant.
Treatable
conditions include:
PMS+PAIN
- No
woman should have to suffer painful periods, mood swings or fatigue.
When the body displays these symptoms it is out of balance. Acupuncture
aims to restore this balance thus alleviating the problems many women
experience.
Irregular
Periods/ Pcos -
Acupuncture treats according to an individual's symptoms and individual
need. However it will also mirror the phases of a 'healthy' menstrual
cycle until the period has been regulated.
Infertility
-
Acupuncture is a great modality to assist with fertility and help
couples conceive naturally or with the assistance of IVF, IUI, Clomid
etc.. Regulation of a woman's cycle, stress reduction, diet and
increased energy all help to create the right environment for
conception.
Pregnancy
- Once
pregnant, acupuncture can help to maintain a healthy pregnancy and
continued post-natal health. It can specifically aid morning sickness,
high blood pressure, fatigue, back pain. Towards the end of the
pregnancy it can turn a breech baby and be used to help induce labour
when a woman is past her due date.
Menopause
- Some
women either can't or choose not to take HRT. Acupuncture can help to
reduce menopausal symptoms: hot flushes, sweats, insomnia, anxiety and
fatigue.
Other
Treatable Conditions include -
Endometriosis, Pelvic Pain, Heavy Periods and more…
