#hot flashes
I work with a lot of folks who have endocrine concerns:
- Fertility/ Infertility/ PCOS
- Digestion & Blood Sugar Regulation (Diabetes, including Type I)
- Insomnia & Sleep
- Weight gain/ Weight loss
- PMS/ Cramps/ Menstrual pain
- Menopause/Hot Flashes
- Low Energy/ Thyroid
- Cold Hands & Feet
All of these (and more) are related to Endocrine imbalances. The way that acupuncture regulates the endocrine system is gentle and gradual - so if you have any kind of endocrine disorder, this is not something we can treat with a few visits. I usually tell folks with these disorders to come in *at least weekly* for months - three to six months to start with. Yes, it takes a few months but the side effects (relaxation and a sense of well-being) are a pretty nice benefit compared to what you might try pharmaceutically. Because pharmaceuticals - even Advil and Motrin! - can have terrible side effects.
