Women's Health
A woman’s body is in a continual state of change. These changes start at puberty, and continue through pregnancy and menopause. Acupuncture can be used to diagnose, treat and manage these changes and any associated health concerns throughout a women’s life. Acupuncture works to restore hormonal balance and vitality to women during every stage of their life’s journey.
Menstrual Problems
There are over 200 different symptoms associated with PMS including cramps, bloating, headaches, irritability and insomnia. In extreme cases, PMS can be so bad that it interferes with your daily life. Whatever the severity of your symptoms, acupuncture can help. Acupuncture restores harmony to your hormonal and energy systems, and heals the root causes of PMS. After your treatments you will feel better, and your next month will be better too.

Labor Induction
Induction of labor is a very common practice in the US. Many times, it is done for medical reasons. But some women are induced for convenience. Many experts agree that this practice is less than ideal. Induction through acupuncture is a natural way to bring on the onset of labor without drugs. Acupuncture works by naturally stimulating your body to ready itself for labor. This non-invasive technique allows the mother and the child to experience a gradual, less-traumatic onset of labor.

I Went Into Labor the Day After My Treatment
“I came to Ingri last week and was a little overdue for my childbirth date. She did one treatment and also relaxed my lower back. I went into labor the very next day! And eight hours later, a baby girl! Thank you.” — Rosemary T., Norwalk
Menopause
If you're experiencing the physical and mental health effects of menopause, acupuncture can help relieve your symptoms and make this life transition an easier and more positive experience for you. Acupuncture can help balance hormones, reduce hot flashes, and eliminate insomnia and irritability. Acupuncture for menopausal symptoms is a particularly good option for women who cannot, or do not wish to use, hormone therapy.
Fertility
Female infertility can be caused by primary factors such as hormone imbalances, liver or kidney issues and genetic abnormalities, or secondary factors such as smoking, STDs, body weight or advanced age. Acupuncture treats the underlying causes as well as the local considerations of follicle formation, uterine lining quality, and retention of the egg through the initial weeks. Fertility treatments are relaxing, painless, and exciting when they lead to the intended results.
