About Us

Hormonal Health, Resilience,
and Healthy Aging

The body changes throughout life, and care should change with it.

From the reproductive years through perimenopause, menopause, and later stages of life, hormonal shifts can influence sleep, energy, mood, menstrual health, metabolism, stress response, and overall well-being.

Dr. Michiko offers personalized acupuncture care designed to support these transitions while considering the whole person—not only a single symptom.

Treatment may combine acupuncture with lifestyle guidance and supportive techniques, with each plan adapted to the patient’s age, medical history, current symptoms, medications, stress level, and long-term health goals.

Life Stage Care

Hormonal health can affect much more than the menstrual cycle.

Changes in reproductive hormones may influence energy, sleep, mood, digestion, skin, headaches, temperature regulation, and the way the body responds to stress.

Dr. Michiko provides individualized acupuncture care for patients experiencing hormonal or reproductive concerns at different stages of life.

Care may be used alongside evaluation and treatment from an OB-GYN, reproductive endocrinologist, primary care physician, or other medical specialist.

Reproductive Health

Changes in menstrual cycles can appear in many ways, including irregular timing, painful periods, heavy or light bleeding, premenstrual symptoms, headaches, fatigue, or changes in mood and sleep.

Rather than treating every menstrual concern in the same way, Dr. Michiko considers the broader pattern of symptoms and overall health.

Treatment may focus on:

Supporting comfortable menstrual cycles
Promoting relaxation and nervous system regulation
Addressing menstrual-related tension or discomfort
Supporting sleep and energy
Supporting overall reproductive wellness
Helping patients manage stress that may accompany hormonal symptoms

Persistent or significant menstrual changes should always be appropriately evaluated by a medical provider.

Menstrual Cycle Support

Polycystic ovary syndrome can affect patients differently.

Some may experience irregular cycles, acne, changes in hair growth, fertility concerns, metabolic changes, or other hormonal symptoms.

Acupuncture may be incorporated as complementary care alongside medical management.

Treatment may focus on:

Supporting menstrual regularity and general reproductive wellness
Stress and nervous system regulation
Sleep and energy
Overall well-being
Lifestyle support when appropriate

Because PCOS is a complex hormonal and metabolic condition, acupuncture is not intended to replace appropriate medical evaluation, laboratory testing, medication, or other treatment recommended by a healthcare provider.

PCOS Support

Endometriosis can affect daily life through pelvic discomfort, painful periods, fatigue, digestive symptoms, and fertility concerns.

Treatment is individualized according to the patient’s symptoms and medical care.

Acupuncture may be used as complementary support with an emphasis on:

Physical comfort
Relaxation
Supporting nervous system regulation
Managing muscular tension
Sleep and recovery
Supporting overall quality of life

Patients should continue appropriate gynecologic evaluation and treatment, particularly when symptoms are new, severe, or changing.

Endometriosis Support

Perimenopause and menopause can bring changes that extend far beyond the end of menstrual periods.

Patients may experience:

Changes in cycle length or flow
Hot flashes or temperature changes
Night sweats
Sleep disruption
Fatigue
Mood changes
Headaches
Muscular tension
Changes in skin or body composition
Increased sensitivity to stress

The experience is different for every patient.

Perimenopause & Menopause

Perimenopause & Menopause

Healthy aging is not about trying to make the body behave as though it were decades younger.

Dr. Michiko’s approach to longevity focuses instead on maintaining function, resilience, comfort, energy, and quality of life as the body naturally changes.

This may mean different things at different stages of life:

In one decade, the priority may be menstrual health or fertility.

Later, it may become sleep, hormonal transition, stress, maintaining muscle comfort, or simply feeling more physically resilient.

Care evolves with those priorities.
