Perimenopause & Menopause Care with Chinese Medicine
Perimenopause and menopause bring significant hormonal change. During this time many women experience shifts in sleep, mood, energy, and temperature regulation, often alongside new aches, brain fog, or changes in metabolism.
Chinese medicine offers a thoughtful approach to supporting the body through these changes. Acupuncture, herbal medicine, and targeted lifestyle guidance can help regulate symptoms while supporting overall resilience during this stage of life.
My role is to help you understand what is happening in your body and provide steady, individualized care as you move through this transition.
How Chinese Medicine Can Help
Treatment is tailored to the specific patterns each woman is experiencing.
Common concerns addressed include:
Hot flashes and night sweats
Acupuncture can help regulate temperature shifts and calm the nervous system.
Sleep disruption and mood changes
Treatment may help improve sleep quality and support emotional steadiness during hormonal change.
Joint pain and body aches
Acupuncture and herbal medicine can help reduce inflammation and improve mobility.
Energy and fatigue
Care focuses on restoring balance and supporting sustainable energy.
Bone and cardiovascular health
Herbal and nutritional guidance can help support long-term structural and metabolic health.

What It Is Like to Work Together
With more than twenty years of experience in women’s health, my approach combines traditional Chinese medicine with modern clinical understanding.
Appointments allow time to discuss symptoms in context, review relevant medical information, and develop a treatment plan that evolves as your body changes.
Many women find relief not only in symptom improvement, but also in understanding the larger hormonal shifts taking place.
When you’re ready to begin, I welcome you to schedule a visit.
Perimenopause is a natural stage of life, but that does not mean you have to struggle through it alone. Thoughtful care can help you move through these changes with greater steadiness and comfort.
