🧐 Did you know? Acupuncture can do so much more beyond pain management. One of those areas is Women's Health, and it is also happens to be one of our specialties at AcuCascadia - helping women thrive throughout the lifespan.

Acupuncture and herbal medicine can be used to support:

-🌗 Menstural cycles- acupuncture can help women achieve more regular and less painful periods. It can also support cyclical symptoms that arise from PMS or PMDD.

-👩‍🍼 Fertility- acupuncture can support fertility by helping with hormonal balance, menstrual regularity and decreasing stress.

-🤰 Pregnancy and postpartum- acupuncture can help with things like nausea, insomnia and back pain in pregnancy. We also support women pre-birth and postpartum.

-🔥 Perimenopause and Menopause- acupuncture can help with hormonal balance and cyclical issues in perimenopause. It is also a great treatment for hot flashes and other menopausal issues.

Find balance wherever you are on your journey. Check out our website for more info and scheduling- www.acucascadia.com

Have you met our waiting room manager yet? Meet Estella, our daughter and newest office helper! She started helping out a couple hours a week this summer. Make sure to take her up on a cup of tea if she's here when you come in for your appointment 🍵💙☀️

Check out this great article from Memorial Sloan Kettering that highlights some of the recent research showing how acupuncture can help cancer patients and survivors. With 16 years of oncology experience, Carli can attest to seeing similar results in clinic. Kudos to MSK for their dedication to integrative medicine as part of standard of care for cancer patients.

☀️ 🚗 Summer parking reminder!

Yes, this is what's happening in front of our office right now as summer temps are here. Our normally tranquil riverfront spot gets a little crazy this time of year with river goers. If you normally park on the street for your appointment, don't forget we have a parking lot behind our building too! You do not need a permit to park in our lot for appointments. If you plan to stay and play in the river, please do move your vehicle to the road to keep spaces open for patients.

Hoping everyone has a fun start to summer!

We wish you a fun and healthy start to your summer 💙

🌏 Today is Earth Day! Earth Day started in 1970, primarily to bring awareness and change to air and water pollution from industrialization. Over 50 years later it is still a day to celebrate nature and also advocate for better care of our world.

Whether you spend your Earth day planting trees, picking up trash, or just sitting outside enjoying the spring flowers and birdsong, it is a great reminder to take some time and connect with nature.

In Chinese medicine, we see our bodies as a direct reflection of the natural world. As the seasons go through their cycles, so do we. Wellness is often achieved through seasonal living- such as resting more in winter and being more active in summer, eating seasonal and local foods, and following lifestyle recommendations that align with seasonal energies. We also see the body as having the same elements as the natural world- Wood, Fire, Earth, Metal and Water. As acupuncturists, it’s our job to assess the organs that correspond to these elements and use points and herbs to help strengthen, reduce or move energy to bring the body’s elements into proper balance.

Just as we should tend to our Earth to keep her clean and healthy, we must tend to our own bodies and internal ecosystems as well. And remember that our personal health is also dependent on the health of our natural world. We hope you can spend some time in the sun today connecting with the Earth and connecting with yourself 🌞

❄️ Winter is our busiest season, and we want to give our clients a heads up on when our office will be closed so you can plan accordingly. It's such a great time of year to focus inward on your health and wellness!

🗓 Currently, we are booked out until mid-Dec, so if you'd like to get any more visits in this calendar year, make sure to schedule ASAP. Also, let us know if you need herb refills so we can have what you need prior to any of these closure dates.

❤️ We hope you will also take some time to rest, reflect and connect with your loved ones this season.

🍂 It's getting cold and wet in Central Oregon these days, which means sweaters, soups and in our clinic- more moxa!

☺️ People often walk into our office and exclaim: "Wow, it smells so nice in here! What is that?" Well folks, it's moxibustion, acupuncture's lesser known sibling and an integral part of many of our treatments.

🤔 Ever wondered what moxa is and what it does? Check out our most recent blog post for more info on moxa and the Japanese-style moxa we do at AcuCascadia.
