Treatment planning

A personalized treatment approach

Treatment starts with a conversation about your cycle, health history, stress load, sleep, and goals. From there, Dr. Lucy may combine acupuncture, herbal medicine, and therapeutic massage into a plan designed around your needs.

When useful, infrared therapy may also be added as a supporting modality for circulation and recovery, but it is always secondary to the main treatment strategy.

How treatment is built

01

Start with a private intake

Visits begin with a one-on-one conversation about your cycle, health history, stress, sleep, and the goals that matter most to you.

02

Match care to the full picture

Dr. Lucy looks at hormonal patterns, energy, digestion, and emotional health before recommending a treatment plan.

03

Adjust as your body responds

Treatment is refined over time so acupuncture, herbs, massage, and supportive therapies stay aligned with your progress.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can acupuncture help with menopause symptoms?
Acupuncture may help reduce hot flashes, night sweats, mood changes, and sleep difficulties associated with menopause. Treatment supports the body's transition rather than masking symptoms, and is often used alongside or instead of hormone therapy.
Can acupuncture support fertility?
Acupuncture may support fertility by improving blood flow to reproductive organs, helping regulate menstrual cycles, and reducing stress. Many patients use it alongside IVF or other fertility treatments, and it can be a valuable standalone approach for those in early stages of trying to conceive.
Is acupuncture safe during pregnancy?
Acupuncture is generally considered safe during pregnancy when performed by a trained practitioner. Certain acupuncture points are avoided during pregnancy. Always inform Dr. Lucy if you are pregnant or think you may be, so treatment can be adjusted accordingly.
Can acupuncture help with painful or irregular periods?
Yes. Acupuncture and herbal medicine are commonly used to support cycle regularity, reduce menstrual pain, and address PMS symptoms. Treatment is personalized to your specific pattern and typically spans several cycles to see meaningful change.
Is treatment private and comfortable?
Yes. All visits are one-on-one and approached with care and respect. Women often find it easier to discuss personal health concerns here than in a conventional medical setting — there is no rush, and your comfort is the priority.
What if I'm already seeing a gynecologist or OB/GYN?
Acupuncture works well alongside conventional gynecological care. Bring a list of any medications, supplements, or recent diagnoses so Dr. Lucy can tailor your treatment appropriately and help coordinate care safely.
