Acupuncture in Greeley | Mood, Bloat & Balance: PMS Relief with Acupuncture
Premenstrual Syndrome (PMS) affects up to 90% of menstruating women, and for many, it’s more than just a mild inconvenience. From mood swings and bloating to fatigue and irritability, PMS can disrupt work, relationships, and overall well-being. While hormonal birth control and pain relievers are typical go-tos, they don’t work for everyone—and they often come with side effects.
At Pins & Needles Acupuncture in Greeley, we offer a natural, personalized approach to PMS relief that helps women feel more balanced, grounded, and in control of their cycle.
What Causes PMS?
PMS is triggered by hormonal fluctuations—particularly the drop in estrogen and progesterone that occurs in the days leading up to menstruation. These shifts can affect:
Serotonin levels (impacting mood and sleep)
Fluid retention (causing bloating and breast tenderness)
Muscle tension and cramping
Energy levels and focus
In Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), PMS is often linked to liver Qi stagnation, spleen deficiency, and imbalances in the kidney system. These patterns can manifest as emotional volatility, digestive discomfort, and fatigue.
How Acupuncture Supports PMS Relief
Acupuncture works by gently nudging the body back into balance. It helps regulate the nervous system, improve circulation, and support hormonal harmony—without the need for pharmaceuticals.
Benefits of acupuncture for PMS may include:
Mood stabilization and reduced irritability
Less bloating and water retention
Improved sleep and energy
Reduced cramping and muscle tension
Greater emotional resilience during the luteal phase
Many patients find that regular acupuncture sessions not only ease PMS symptoms but also help them feel more connected to their body and less reactive to monthly changes.
