Our Approach
Care Tailored to Your Cycle, Body and Life Stage

Your practitioner will assess these factors before recommending treatment. Depending on your condition, care may involve acupuncture, Chinese herbal medicine, moxibustion or supportive lifestyle guidance.

Traditional Chinese Medicine Perspective
Understanding Women’s Health Through Body Patterns
In Traditional Chinese Medicine, women’s health is often assessed through the relationship between Blood, Qi, Yin, Yang, Liver, Spleen and Kidney patterns. These concepts help practitioners understand why symptoms may appear at certain times of the cycle or during different life stages.
Your practitioner may ask about cycle length, bleeding pattern, pain, PMS, sleep, digestion, temperature, stress, mood, energy and medical history to develop a treatment direction that reflects your individual presentation.
