Coping With Menopause

 

According to Chinese Medical theory, menopause occurs when a woman's body begins to preserve blood and energy in order to sustain her vitality and allow for the maximum available nourishment for her body, especially her kidneys. Thus, in the Chinese Medicine, menopause is seen as true change in life from mother to enlightened and wise being. Acupuncture and herbs can alleviate many menopausal symptoms by rebalancing the hormonal system, especially headaches and migraines, hot flushing, heavy flooding periods, back pain and sagging skin tone The mental and emotional symptoms that you are experiencing will help create a clear picture on which your practitioners can create a treatment plan specifically for you. The basic foundation for Oriental medicine is that there is a life energy flowing through the body which is termed Qi (pronounced chee). Acupuncture and herbs can alleviate many menopausal symptoms by rebalancing the hormonal system, especially headaches and migraines, hot flushing, heavy flooding periods, back pain and sagging skin tone. Heavy and erratic menstrual bleeding in perimenopausal women can be relieved by this technique. Also relieves the pain and headache associated with menstruation.

A Swedish study of 21 women with menopausal hot flashes found that acupuncture significantly reduced symptoms; with its effects lasting at least three months after treatment had ended. Acupuncture may used alone or in combination with herbs and other remedies. Some alternative practitioners suggest that acupuncture affects aspects of the nervous system that give rise to hot flashes.  For a free consultation call The Healing Arts Medical Center.
