The Limits of Conventional Treatment
Western medicine often turns to hormone replacement therapy (HRT) using estrogen and progestin. While HRT may relieve some symptoms, it can also increase the risk of serious side effects, including breast and uterine cancer, blood clots, and mood instability.
Rather than masking symptoms, Traditional Chinese Medicine works to correct the imbalance at its source.
The TCM Approach: Balance Blood & Qi
According to TCM, menstrual and menopausal symptoms are typically caused by imbalances in blood and Qi (vital energy). This may be due to stress, overwork, poor nutrition, lack of circulation, or constitutional weakness.
At Sincere Acupuncture Clinic in Calgary, we begin with a detailed Health Assessment and TCM Consultation to understand your body’s patterns and signals. From there, we build a personalized, non-drug treatment plan focusing on long-term balance and symptom relief.
Treatments May Include:
- Acupuncture – To regulate hormones, relieve cramps, and improve circulation
- Chinese Herbal Medicine – Customized formulas to balance estrogen levels and strengthen reproductive organs
- Food Therapy – Nutritional guidance based on your body type and hormonal needs
- Energy Balancing – Techniques to restore emotional and energetic stability during hormonal shifts
