Finding Balance
Imagine the natural rhythm of the seasons—the way each cycle flows into the next, bringing balance and renewal to the earth. Our bodies, too, have their own rhythms, particularly in the menstrual cycle- a delicate dance of hormones, where every step is carefully timed. But when this dance is interrupted—by stress, diet, lifestyle, or underlying health issues—the result can be anything from irregular periods to heavy bleeding, or missed cycles altogether.
Common menstrual disorders include conditions like
In Chinese medicine, the menstrual cycle is closely tied to the health of the liver, kidneys, and spleen—organs that play a crucial role in maintaining hormonal balance. When these organs are out of balance, it can lead to many issues. For example, liver stagnation can cause painful cramps, PMS and possibly tension headaches and insomnia, while kidney deficiency might result in irregular or absent periods and maybe low energy or inadequate circulation.
Just as a musician tunes an instrument to bring it back into harmony, acupuncture and Chinese herbal medicine helps restore balance in the body. These modalities are a safe and effective method that influences the endocrine system to regulates hormone release by way of the Hypothalamic Pituitary Ovarian Axis (HPO Axis). Acupuncture works by improving the flow of energy (Qi) and blood through these organs, helping to relieve stagnation, nourish deficiencies, and bring the body back into harmony. With Chinese medicine we address the root cause, which not only alleviates symptoms but also helps to regulate the cycle entirely.
*Lastly, evidence based research has concluded that acupuncture is more effective then NSAIDs for menstrual pain or headache.
