Acupuncture for Health, Pain and Fertility
Serving Plainfield and Greater Chicago Area
Eastern Healing provides services including acupuncture for a wide range of health concerns to patients in Plainfield, IL and surrounding areas. Acupuncture is an ancient component of Traditional Chinese Medicine that is effective in treating back and neck pain, fertility issues, menopause, headaches and migraines, PCOS, endometriosis, and many other conditions. Many people today are choosing a more natural, non-invasive approach to health and well-being that involves treating the underlying problems rather than masking symptoms with medications.
Acupuncture is widely accepted today among practitioners of Western medicine for its effectiveness in improving fertility. While women often have conditions that make conceiving difficult or impossible, men have issues as well such as low sperm count or poor motility. PCOS, endometriosis, and advanced maternal age are among the problems women often face that interfere with fertility, along with irregular menstrual cycles, stress, and other factors.
How does acupuncture improve fertility? Acupuncture promotes good blood flow throughout the body, including to the reproductive organs and tissues. Blood contains the oxygen, nutrients, and other components essential to healthy cells and tissues. This means better egg quality, a thicker uterine lining, and an overall healthier reproductive environment. When combined with herbal medicine, lifestyle and nutritional changes, stress reduction and other therapies, acupuncture for PCOS and endometriosis is highly beneficial and supports fertility.
Acupuncture for advanced maternal age is also beneficial as proper blood flow and stress reduction are vital to egg quantity and quality. AMA refers generally to women as they approach age 35, when reproductive risks increase and fertility decreases. A healthy diet, exercise, healthy lifestyle choices, and acupuncture can all improve the odds of becoming pregnant.
Find Out How a Holistic Approach Can Help You
Women who are going through menopause know all too well the negative side effects that can impact your life. Hot flashes, night sweats, mood swings, stress, insomnia; the list goes on and on. Acupuncture for menopause works to reduce stress, promote better sleep, and alleviate hot flashes as it helps balance hormones and encourages the release of endorphins, the body’s own natural “feel good” hormones.
Acupuncture has long been known for helping reduce or eliminate pain. Whether you suffer from back pain, migraines, neck pain, headaches or other types of pain, acupuncture addresses these issues by releasing endorphins and impacting the area of the brain that governs the neurotransmitter serotonin. The effectiveness of acupuncture to reduce stress also plays a role in alleviating pain so you can enjoy life without taking over-the-counter or potentially addictive prescription pain medicines.
