Find Natural Relief from Menopause Symptoms with Acupuncture and Nutrition Response Testing
​
The menopause transition is a natural and significant phase in a woman's life. But while it's a normal process, the symptoms—from unpredictable hot flashes and night sweats to mood swings, anxiety, and restless nights—can be anything but easy. You deserve to navigate this time with comfort and confidence, without relying on synthetic hormones or medication.
​
At The Point Acupuncture Clinic, we believe in supporting your body's innate ability to find balance. Our specialized approach combines the ancient wisdom of acupuncture for menopause with the modern, cutting-edge technique of Neural Reset Therapy (NRT) to offer you a comprehensive, drug-free path to feeling like yourself again.
​
Navigating the Menopause Transition: More Than Just Hot Flashes
Menopause is a time of profound hormonal shifts, primarily a decrease in estrogen and progesterone. While hot flashes are the most well-known symptom, this transition can affect your entire being, both physically and emotionally. It's not a condition to be "cured" but a natural process that can be managed with the right support.
Common Menopause Symptoms We Can Address Naturally
​
Our combined approach can provide effective relief for a wide range of symptoms, including:
- 
Hot Flashes & Night Sweats: By regulating your body's internal thermostat and balancing energy flow.
 - 
Mood Swings & Irritability: By calming the nervous system and promoting emotional stability.
 - 
Anxiety & Stress: By releasing tension and resetting the body's fight-or-flight response.
 - 
Sleep Disturbances: By improving the quality of your sleep and helping you fall asleep more easily.
 - 
Fatigue: By boosting your energy reserves and addressing the underlying causes of exhaustion.
 - 
Headaches & Migraines: By reducing inflammation and tension that can trigger pain.
 - 
Memory Fog: By improving blood flow to the brain and enhancing clarity.
 
How Acupuncture Provides Comprehensive Menopause Relief
​
Acupuncture is a cornerstone of Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) that has been used for thousands of years to address hormonal imbalances. It works by stimulating specific points on the body to restore the flow of "Qi" (vital energy) and blood. This process helps your body self-regulate, bringing your systems back into harmony.
​
The Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) View of Menopause
​
In TCM, menopause is often seen as a decline in "Kidney Jing," which is the foundational energy of life and growth. When this energy is depleted, it can lead to imbalances of Yin (cooling, calming) and Yang (heating, active) energy, resulting in symptoms like hot flashes (Yang rising) and night sweats (Yin deficiency). Acupuncture aims to nourish and restore this fundamental energy, addressing the root cause of the symptoms rather than just masking them.
​
What the Research Says: The Science Behind Acupuncture
​
Modern scientific research supports what TCM practitioners have known for centuries. Studies show that acupuncture can:
​
- 
Stimulate the production of endorphins, your body's natural painkillers and mood elevators.
 - 
Regulate levels of key hormones, including cortisol (the stress hormone).
 - 
Improve blood flow and circulation, which helps with hot flashes and overall health.
 - 
Calm the nervous system, reducing stress and anxiety.
 
This makes acupuncture and menopause a perfect pairing for those seeking a scientifically-backed, natural solution.
The Power of Neural Reset Therapy (NRT) for Menopause
​
Neural Reset Therapy (NRT) is a gentle, hands-on therapy that "resets" muscles to their optimal resting state. It works by targeting the nervous system, which often holds patterns of tension and stress. By releasing these patterns, NRT can significantly improve sleep, reduce pain, and calm an overactive nervous system, all of which are crucial for managing the symptoms of menopause.
The Synergy of Acupuncture and NRT for Lasting Relief
​
The combination of acupuncture and NRT at The Point Acupuncture Clinic is truly a powerful duo. While acupuncture works to balance the body's internal energy and hormonal systems, NRT directly addresses the physical and nervous system tension that often accompanies menopause. This dual approach provides a more comprehensive and lasting form of natural menopause relief, helping you feel more relaxed, balanced, and in control.
