Acupuncture and PMS

Acupuncture and PMS

Acupuncture gives very good results in the treatment of PMS. As for all menstrual troubles, 3 months of treatment are required before achieving its full effect. However, a significant improvement can already be perceived in the first month. Several benefits will also be felt earlier:

  • Energy boost
  • Stress reduction
  • Deeper sleep
  • Regular cycles
  • Smooth menstrual flow...

At the same time, you will enjoy a beneficial and well-deserved relaxing moment.
