Menarche through Menopause
For thousands of years Chinese medicine and acupuncture have been helping girls and women with the signs and symptoms of reproductive issues from menarche through menopause. In fact the first Chinese medicine medical texts date back to around 650 CE.
Women's health and reproductive health have been paramount in traditional Chinese medicine culture in recognition of the primary role females have in bearing children and keeping the entire family healthy. Without a vital, healthy and productive matriarch, the family could not flourish.
Obstetrics and Gynecology in Chinese medicine is often referred to as 'Nurturing Life' itself.
