Endometriosis is the most common cause of chronic pelvic pain. You may also experience symptoms like pain during sex, unusual menstrual bleeding, bowel problems like painful bloating, diarrhoea. It may be hard to get pregnant.

The problem is, even if you get all of above symptoms, you are never certain of the cause unless you had a laparoscopic surgery. It may take years to get diagnosed.

Endometriosis affects roughly 1 in 10 women and girls in New Zealand. It develops when tissue lining the uterus (endometrium) grows in places outside your uterus.

American Society of Reproductive Medicine recommends acupuncture as an adjunctive treatment for an endometriosis pain. In two recent trials, acupuncture gave significant pain relief, also when compared to sham acupuncture.

The biggest strength of our acupuncture treatment is a rare combination of safety and effectiveness. Studies on pain show that acupuncture is safe when done by well-trained acupuncturists.

And when, as a side effect, acupuncture improves your mood and your sleep. I’m certain you will handle these side-effects! Yes, you read it right. You are more likely to get beneficial positive side-effects, and hardly ever unpleasant ones.
