Periods
Regulating cycles and balancing hormones to address PMS, pain and more.
Women and girls tend to have a fairly low bar when it comes to period health; pain, irregular cycles, long cycles, a too heavy or too light flow and PMS tend to be tolerated as a part of life. And yet they needn’t be. Acupuncture is brilliant at balancing hormones and improving circulation to the uterus to create regular, seamless cycles.
Women and girls are amazing at adapting to what are often distressing symptoms. They learn to work around cyclical migraines and bouts of IBS that are triggered by hormone imbalances, but these symptoms have a huge impact on their lives, the choices they make, and their self-esteem.
Ali’s extensive knowledge and care is second to none. Her understanding of women’s bodies/cycles, the changes and what can affect these is regarded highly. I always leave Ali feeling calm and listened to.

I am inspired every day by how life changing Women’s Health Acupuncture can be. It is empowering to see a woman reach a point in her treatment when she can trust her periods will be symptom free; that she needn’t plan ahead to book time off work or ensure she has gaps between work meetings in order to cope.
It is such a privilege and a joy to help bring relief and establish a good menstrual cycle. I look forward to a time when acupuncture is the go-to-treatment for period problems; it would be a huge win for women’s health for all girls and women to receive this gentle, effective treatment as soon as symptoms arise, with the expectation that they will have symptom-free cycles right up to menopause.
It looks like we have another gentle, pain-free start to a period. (My daughter) will fill you in more, but I just wanted to share with you and express gratitude! You are a miracle worker!
