What happens during women’s health care appointments?

If you’ve been diagnosed with a women’s health condition, your Erzhena Acupuncture provider reviews your medical history. They discuss your symptoms, medications, and goals for restoring your reproductive health and well-being. Then, the Erzhena Acupuncture team tailors a treatment that’s best suited to your needs.

Which women’s health care options are available?

Erzhena Acupuncture offers the following women’s health services to restore fertility and other body functions:

Acupuncture

Acupuncture uses very fine needles placed into specific tissues to activate your body’s natural healing mechanisms. Simply lie down and relax while your provider inserts tiny needles. They may manually manipulate them or apply electrical pulses to the needles to optimize your results. 

Gua sha

Gua sha is a healing technique that applies a scraping tool to your skin to release toxins, increase immunity, improve circulation, loosen muscles, and reduce stress.

Cupping therapy

Cupping therapy uses gentle suction to optimize healing, optimize wellness, and eliminate toxins from your body. 

Moxibustion

Moxibustion involves burning moxa (mugwort), an herb that facilitates natural healing within your body. It helps warm tissues, improve fertility, increase immunity, reduce symptoms of illnesses, and lessen aches and pains. It also increases blood flow and tissue oxygenation. While you relax, your provider burns mugwort leaves close to your skin’s surface.

How often should I schedule women’s health care visits?

Your Erzhena Acupuncture provider determines when to schedule your next women’s health treatment session to reap the most benefits. You might receive treatments weekly or more often, depending on your needs, goals, and schedule. Each session might last an hour, depending on the type of treatment you receive.
