Women’s Health.
Women’s bodies move through intricate cycles of change, from the rhythm of the menstrual cycle to the transitions of pregnancy, motherhood, and menopause. Each phase calls for care that is both intelligent and deeply attuned.
Japanese acupuncture specifically Manaka and Toyohari styles offer that kind of care, gentle, precise, and responsive. They work with the body’s natural rhythms to restore balance, ease discomfort, and support emotional well being. By improving circulation, calming the nervous system, and regulating hormonal function, treatments help the body return to a state of quiet equilibrium.
Common areas of support include:
Menstrual irregularities such as Amenorrhoea (absence of period) and Dysmenorrhea (period pain) - regulating the cycle, reducing cramping, and supporting smoother flow resulting in a reduction of clotting and pain.
Endometriosis and adenomyosis - easing pelvic pain, reducing inflammation, and supporting tissue health.
Polycystic ovarian syndrome (PCOS) - by encouraging ovulation, cycle regulation and balancing of hormones.
Perimenopause and menopause - helping to manage hot flushes, mood changes, and sleep disturbances.
Emotional health, stress, and anxiety - calming the mind and supporting emotional resilience.
Support through women’s cancers (breast, uterine, ovarian) - alleviates treatment side effects such as fatigue, pain, or nausea, and promotes gentle recovery.
Each treatment is personalised, guided by sensitivity and observation rather than protocol alone. When needed, moxibustion and cupping are used to enhance warmth, ease tension, and support the body’s natural healing processes.
At heart, these forms of Japanese acupuncture at are about connection, restoring harmony between the body and emotions, and helping women feel balanced, supported, and whole at every stage of life.
