Help for PMS: Period Cramps, Mood Swings, and Pain

PMS does not have to disrupt your life every month!  Premenstrual Syndrome goes under the list of “disorders that western medicine forgot.”  Due to a lack of options in PMS treatment, most gynecologists put women on long-term birth control pills or SSRIs, both of which can come with side effects like weight gain, headaches, insomnia, and low libido.  And many women just opt to power through their difficult week pre-period with no help at all.  Please don’t settle for this!  Chinese acupuncture and herbal medicine can provide a natural and side-effect-free remedy for this very common problem.    

Whether you have one predominant symptom or are lucky enough to experience a combo of physical and psychological symptoms before your period, we’ve got you covered.  Some women prefer to use acupuncture timed the week or two before their period each month.  If symptoms are more severe or persistent, an herbal formula like Woman’s Balance is very useful.  The herbs in this formula have been studied extensively and shown to decrease PMS symptoms such as bloating, breast tenderness, headache, cramping and emotional distress by more than 90%.  In most studies this was closer to 98%! 

What are you waiting for!  Our Herb Shop is always open in each location if you want to try Woman’s Balance or any of our herbal formulas.  No need to have an appointment to stop in a grab what you need!
