Reproductive Health

Chinese medicine serves as a rich and powerful resource for women as they explore each stage of their ​reproductive health throughout life.

Menstrual and reproductive health play a huge role in a woman’s life, and more often than not, gynecological care is often reduced to long-term birth-control usage or passively tolerating “that time of the month.” At Jafari Acupuncture Clinic, we recognize that the life-long journey from menarche to menopause is one of the most vulnerable, powerful and intimate experiences of womanhood.

We believe that journey deserves warm care and close attention, and as such, it is our goal to assist women in transforming their relationship with their menstrual health.

​Patients are provided integrative health care – combining information gained from modern medical technology (ultrasound readings, lab work, BBT charts, etc) with the rich knowledge of Traditional Chinese Medicine Gynecology. In so doing, we gain a broader perspective of what’s happening, and we understand how our treatments compliment the patient’s western medical care.

Menstrual Cycle Support​

Acupuncture and herbal medicine help regulate menstrual cycles by balancing hormone profiles  and reducing inflammatory markers. Chronic inflammation and hormone imbalances are often the main factors contributing to menstrual-related disturbances in the body. Commonly treated conditions are:

• Painful periods

• Irregular menstruation (long or short cycles) 

• Abnormal uterine bleeding or spotting 

• Premenstrual syndrome (mood swings, digestive upset, poor energy)

• Menstrual-related headaches and migraines 

• Hormonal acne 

• Endometriosis 

• PCOS
