WOMEN'S HEALTH
THROUGHOUT HER LIFECYCLES
Acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine has a long history of successfully addressing a wide variety of Women’s Health concerns.
At Seven Point Wellness, we work with girls and women of all ages and throughout their lifecycles - from adolescence, the reproductive years, to midlife, and on through the post-menopausal and elder years.
Common issues we treat range from preventative care and maintaining wellness - to addressing everyday ailments, to specific gynecological and menstrual issues.
As Women, each part of our lifecycle is unique, and our needs and health issues are different throughout each of these stages. Our approach to Women's Healthcare considers your health concerns in the context of your everyday life.
Traditional Chinese Medicine believes that a "life in balance, is a healthy life." This idea shapes our treatment planning - which includes both emotional and physical health, food and nutrition, and lifestyle consideration - to ensure a balance of work, play and rest that aligns with your health goals.

Pregnancy Health treatments are designed to promote the vitality and health of the parent and baby. This includes addressing any variety of pregnancy discomforts (i.e. morning sickness, fatigue, muscle aches, anxiety, etc.) throughout all three stages of pregnancy.
We also work with women throughout the entire Labor and Delivery process - integrating Doula care, Acupuncture, Herbal Medicine and Manual Therapy within each clinical session.
Postpartum is the time for re-balancing and restoration after the amazing process of childbirth. Treatment for Post-Partum and Recovery focuses on supporting the mother's healing process and the recovery of her body's strength and energy.
Nutritional and lifestyle recommendations are key at this time, and are carefully integrated into the treatment and recovery plan.
PERIMENOPAUSE, MENOPAUSE
& OUR ELDER YEARS
As our fertile years wane, perimenopause (as the menses declines) and eventual menopause (when we are no longer menstruating) is a natural part of a Woman’s lifecycle.
Traditional Chinese Medicine upholds that when a Woman's physical and emotional health is in balance during this life-stage - we are active, vital and at a peak in creativity and sense-of-self.
This is the time in life where many of us have come to know ourselves more intimately - and have a good deal of life experience to draw from. It has the potential to be a powerful and potentially fulfilling time when our body, mind and emotions are well balanced.
