HOW DOES ACUPUNCTURE HELP MENOPAUSE?
Acupuncture is a wonderful natural system of medicine that restores and maintains our health. The needles’ presence activates a person’s own recuperative and healing powers. Over 2000 years ago, this ancient
science was already an established part of the repertoire of Chinese Medicine.
This traditional practice works with the “Qi” (pronounced “chee”), or the vital energy of the body. Energy flows continuously within the meridian system. This energetic network links the points which in turn influence internal organs and other body systems. This science aims to treat the whole person. It looks at the causes of specific problems as well as the symptoms. The practice involves the shallow insertion of hair-fine needles, and the sessions are amazingly relaxing with no side effects!

Menopause is seen as a Second Spring in Chinese Medicine. It is a natural transition to a new beginning, a natural process not to be feared. As we pass through this process, we may experience a disturbance in the balance of the Yin and Yang in our bodies. In women this can result in such symptoms as hot flushes, night sweats,
vaginal dryness, anxiety, mood swings, insomnia and tiredness. Acupuncture can rebalance our responses to these variations of Yin and Yang, enabling us to travel into this new stage smoothly and without distressing symptoms.
Diagnosis is performed by traditional tongue and pulse diagnosis as well as hearing your personal
story. This way the treatment can be tailored to you individually.
