Endometriosis is one of the leading causes of pelvic pain we see here at Holistic Point. It can seriously affect one’s ability to conceive and can also cause uncomfortable, heavy, or irregular periods. According to current research, regular acupuncture can improve circulation in the area, reduce inflammation, and decrease pain. In addition to providing relief from pelvic pain, acupuncture can also help to relax tense muscles in the affected area and relieve stress preventing the tension from returning. 

Up to 1 in 5 women suffer from pelvic girdle pain in pregnancy. Usually, our patients complain of pain in the low back and buttocks although some patients also feel discomfort at the front of their pelvic area. Some also experience radiating pain down one or both of their legs. Most tell us that the pain gets worse if they have to stand for a long time. Acupuncture is a safe, natural, gentle way of handling this debilitating condition.

By using Acupuncture and moxibustion, we can help to improve healthy blood circulation and speed up recovery time for both internal and external surgical sites. This treatment can begin within 5 days of coming home but it is never too late to start treatment. 

In addition to recognizing the cause of urinary and digestive system disorders such as constipation and urinary leakage, Chinese medicine identifies patterns that emerge because of them. This allows us a proactive strategy to heal the body within the context of your overall health. We work on helping you relax, lengthen and strengthen your pelvic floor muscles so they can better support the organs in the pelvis.
