Whether you’re experiencing painful periods, hormonal imbalance, fertility challenges, or menopausal symptoms, our approach is to work with your body — not against it.

Common Questions

Do I need a diagnosis to start treatment?

No — you’re welcome to come in for support at any stage. Whether you have a formal diagnosis (like PCOS or endometriosis) or simply feel that something’s not quite right, we can begin with your current symptoms, goals, and what you’re noticing in your cycle.

Do you work with women trying to conceive?

Yes — we offer natural fertility support, preconception care, and complementary treatment for IVF and assisted reproductive technologies.

Sessions may include acupuncture, cycle tracking, dietary guidance, and relaxation support tailored to your fertility stage.

Do I need to come at a specific time in my cycle?

It depends on your goals. For cycle regulation or fertility, different phases of your cycle may benefit from different approaches — we’ll guide you based on where you are and what’s needed.

Can acupuncture be used for turning a breech baby or inducing labour?

Acupuncture and moxibustion (a gentle heat technique) have traditionally been used in Chinese medicine to support breech repositioning and preparation for labour.

While we do not claim to induce labour or turn a baby directly, treatments may support the body’s natural readiness and relaxation during these stages.

For breech presentations, moxa is often used around 32–35 weeks, while labour preparation acupuncture is typically offered from 36–40 weeks, with consent from your primary medical care.

We always work alongside your medical care, and your comfort, safety, and consent are our top priorities.

Can acupuncture help with hormonal imbalance?

Acupuncture has been shown to influence hormonal regulation, reduce stress, and support cycle balance by working with the body’s neuroendocrine system.

While we don’t claim to treat specific diseases, many people use acupuncture to manage irregular cycles, PMS, and perimenopausal symptoms.

Is it safe to have acupuncture during pregnancy?

Yes — when performed by a qualified and registered practitioner. We use gentle, pregnancy-appropriate points and techniques to support symptoms such as nausea, fatigue, anxiety, back pain, and birth preparation.
