Menopause

This is Menopause

“TCM” (Traditional Chinese Medicine) sees menopause as a deep energy shift that extends beyond physical changes. It’s a natural and normal part of a woman’s life, yet it has the power to affect her mind, emotions and spirit.

Menopause is an energy gateway—a unique chance for a woman to prepare her body, mind and spirit for a healthy, long life. It’s a time when she can heal, strengthen herself, and balance and harmonize her energies. Menopause creates the opportunity for a transformation, a new beginning, as a woman becomes free to discover, pursue or complete her life’s mission and touch her spirit—and the spirits of those around her—in a profound and meaningful way.”        ….If you would like to experience menopause this way, please get in touch..

This quote is an excerpt from my acupuncture and Qigong teacher, Grand Master Nan Lu who is based in New York. The book is titled ‘Traditional Chinese Medicine: A Women’s Guide to a Hormone-Free Menopause’.

Yes acupuncture works for that

Try acupuncture and Chinese Medicine if you are struggling with menopausal symptoms – or if you simply want to sail through this sacred time in a woman’s life. In the five element framework, the main organs associated with Menopause are Liver and Kidney. Treatments are focused on supporting and nourishing these organ systems. Reach out to learn more about how acupuncture can help you go through this transition – regardless of taking HRT or not (Hormone Replacement Therapy). 

Acupuncture works to improve the function of the body’s organs

Based on acupuncture theory, the Liver and Kidney are the main systems involved in ensuring a smooth transition through Menopause. 

Therefore, if typical menopausal symptoms show up, we will work to create balance in these organ systems. 

Chinese Medicine is all about relationships. Relationships inside the body – the Liver and the Kidney have a  mother child relationship in the 5 element framework. We also deal with relationships outside the body. The woman with her partner, her parents, her children, her in-laws, her job, nature, food, and so on. How much is in balance versus out of balance. We work to provide natural energy medicine to allow the body to maintain or regain a sense of balance all help the organ systems carry out their ‘duties or responsibilities’, as the body transitions to a new level of energy operation.

When your body has enough energy, it can go through the menopausal transition with minimal discomfort. 

More than that, a smooth transition sets you up for a heathy future as your energy is balanced and your body adjusts to post menopausal living. These can be the best years of your life.
