Common Questions

 

HOW DO YOU TREAT GYNECOLOGICAL ISSUES WITH NATURAL MEDICINE?

The subtle nature of the endocrine system responds very, very well to acupuncture, herbs, nutritional therapy, and mind-body medicine. In fact, in our opinion most women’s health issues are much better suited to our form of therapy than more forceful techniques like pharmaceuticals or surgery.

 

WILL I HAVE TO KEEP COMING FOREVER?

The great thing about our medicine is that we find the root cause of the problem and once it is addressed you no longer depend on our treatment.

 

DO YOU GIVE DIETARY RECOMMENDATIONS?

Absolutely. You will receive specific dietary recommendations based on your unique needs in addition to our diet plan that we’ve used for over a decade to help hundreds and hundreds of women just like you.

 

HOW LONG DOES IT TAKE TO WORK?

We’ve seen it take as little as hours (chronic pain, bleeding) to several days (PMS, menopausal symptoms). Everybody is different, and the time prognosis varies. However, most of our patients feel better soon after their first couple of visits.

 

WHAT ARE YOUR SUCCESS RATES?

The vast majority of women who follow our treatment plan and complete their course of acupuncture visits report improvement in their symptoms.

 

WHAT ARE MY CHANCES OF SUCCESS?

Bottom line is that your situation is unique and once we meet with you we will be able to give you our best estimate of time and prognosis of outcome.
