A Natural Approach to Women\’s Health Issues

From irregular menstrual cycles, endometriosis, and menopause to stress and other women\’s health issues, acupuncture and functional medicine are something many women in and Soquel are turning to in an effort to enjoy their best lives.

Women follow along a path during life that\’s amazing, yet has challenges along the way. Puberty is when our bodies begin to change, and menstruation becomes part of our lives. While it\’s a natural process, it often brings about cramps, mood swings, skin problems, and other not so pleasant changes. Then comes the child-bearing years in which many women face fertility issues caused by hormone imbalances, endometriosis, even stress. It can be so overwhelming!

It wasn\’t too long ago that women would go to their primary care physician for almost anything that ailed them. While there is certainly nothing wrong with that, the problem is that traditional medicine tends to treat the symptoms using prescription medications rather than finding out what the underlying issue is and promoting better health from within. If you have fertility problems, wouldn\’t it be better to treat the issue in a way that\’s natural and healthy for your body instead of taking a pill? Of course it would.

Getting pregnant naturally is a concern for many women; after all, no one wants to undergo IVF or IUI treatments unless it\’s the only option left. Stress plays a huge role in our lives today and affects literally every aspect of your health, including your fertility. Hormone imbalances are common, but did you know that acupuncture along with proper nutrition and functional medicine often takes care of the problem while boosting your overall physical and emotional health?

Natural fertility specialists look at women\’s health issues from a different perspective. We don\’t believe in a \”one size fits all\” solution to your health concerns, and know that every woman is unique. Why are you having fertility problems, why are your menstrual cycles irregular, what is the best way to approach your menopausal symptoms? You are not every other woman; you are an individual with your own specific health concerns. It\’s important that you are not only treated, but given guidance so that you understand how to help your body and live your best life, every day.

If you have fertility issues or simply want to manage stress, pain, or other problems so that you enjoy your best possible YOU, our women\’s health professionals are here to help. Those in and Soquel are invited to contact Points for Wellness today to learn how to empower your health and your life.
