Hormonal Imbalance
For Women
PMS, menstrual problems, and menopausal symptoms are signs of imbalance, not normal female functioning. The body was not intended to exist in a state of disharmony and pain. It is in the area of hormonal imbalance that acupuncture and Chinese Medicine truly shine. Due to our own experiences, this is an area of particular interest to us at Cinnabar Acupuncture. We successfully treat many types of hormonal imbalances. |

| For Men |
| The issue of hormonal balancing is more elusive for men since they do not have a very visible marker such as menstruation to alert that there is a problem. Issues generally surface only in relation to fertility, libido, and impotence. However, hormonal imbalance due to age (testosterone levels tend to drop around age 35-40, for example), stress, or poor diet can impact appearance, mood, and performance. Issues such as depression, weight gain, and cognitive changes can all be hormone related. |
