Why would I allow someone to put needles in my body? And on top of that, why would I PAY someone to do so? It took one session of acupuncture for me to answer those questions.

Acupuncture is a practice that is thousands of years old and designed to release blocked energy in the body. Over the years, it’s received countless claims for its ability to balance the body physically, mentally, and emotionally.

The science is still mixed on its effectiveness for endometriosis. However, I personally find it extremely helpful for maintenance, reducing pain, and regulating my cycle.
