Acupuncture for Fertility, Pain, and Reproductive Issues
Serving Lombard and Greater Chicago Area
Patients throughout Lombard, IL and surrounding cities trust Eastern Healing for a natural, non-invasive approach to health and well-being. Acupuncture has long been known for its ability to reduce pain and stress, and today this ancient Chinese practice is becoming highly recognized for its impact on improving fertility. From endometriosis and PCOS to advanced maternal age and other women’s health concerns, acupuncture is a complementary therapy shown to be highly effective for promoting physical and emotional health and healing.
Using acupuncture for fertility is becoming more common today as couples look for alternative treatments for polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS), endometriosis, advanced maternal age, and other conditions that make conceiving difficult. These issues frequently result in infertility, however genetics, environmental factors, and lifestyle choices may also play a role. We help you support your own fertility through not only acupuncture but herbal medicine, nutrition, and other natural treatment tailored to your unique needs.
Why use acupuncture for PCOS, endometriosis, advanced maternal age, or other women’s health concerns that interfere with fertility? Many medications used in traditional medicine to treat these conditions simply mask the symptoms, rather than getting to the root cause of illness or disease in your body. Acupuncture promotes reproductive health as it enhances blood flow to the uterus, ovaries, and other reproductive organs. Acupuncture works to balance hormones, regulate your menstrual cycle, reduce stress, and promote wellness throughout your entire body. Many people have no idea of the human body’s ability to heal itself through natural, non-invasive treatment and therapies.
Acupuncture is Safe and Effective
Acupuncture is widely accepted in both Eastern and Western medicine for its use in alleviating back and neck pain, migraines, headaches, and other types of pain. While it promotes relaxation and reduces stress, acupuncture also works to help the brain release the body’s own “feel good” hormones, endorphins, which block pain pathways in the brain naturally. Patients who experience migraines, back or neck pain, and other chronic pain can often enjoy being pain-free without having to take opioids or other medications.
Menopause is another area in which acupuncture is beneficial. Women who are going through menopause often experience depression, insomnia, anxiety, hot flashes, mood swings, weight gain, and other negative symptoms. Many women prefer not to use hormone replacement therapy (HRT) to reduce hot flashes and night sweats because of the potential risks. Acupuncture for menopause works to ease symptoms by balancing hormones, reducing stress, and promoting the proper flow of energy through the body’s pathways or meridians. Women enjoy a substantial reduction in hot flashes and night sweats, better sleep, fewer physical and emotional issues, and reduced hair or skin problems.
From endometriosis, PCOS and other reproductive health issues to menopause, migraines, and back pain, acupuncture is one component of Chinese medicine that can help with nearly any condition that ails you.
