Menstruation
Holistic Women’s Healthcare
Our monthly menstrual cycle is the most basic, earthly cycle we have. The smooth flow of our cycle depends upon the proper balance and function of our body systems and a smooth flow of Qi (translates as energy) and blood. Any disturbance - for instance headaches, bloating, breast tenderness, irritability - is cause for concern. These symptoms indicate imbalances and if left unchecked, may progress to cysts, lumps or tumors and may lead to problems with conception, pregnancy and menopause.
At Lifecycles Wellness, we work with women with some of the following concerns:
“I thought that irritability and spotting were just part of my normal cycle but after the first acupuncture treatments, my skin cleared and started to glow, my mood shifts leveled and my cycle got gloriously predictable!” – Carrie, 32
Your care
Lifecycles Wellness offers natural and non-invasive ways to help your body back to balance so it can do what it was meant to do naturally.
