Many people eat, or over-eat, for emotional reasons. When you feel sad or depressed you might eat in an attempt to make yourself feel better. While this may satisfy your instant gratification needs, it's only very temporary and often times, instead of feeling better, you end up feeling frustrated and unhappy.
There are many benefits of acupuncture for fertility. Acupuncture helps regulate and stabilize hormone levels and menstrual cycles. Acupuncture facilitates the production of more follicles, increases blood flow to the uterus and ovaries and thickens the endometrial lining. Acupuncture can also help reduce chances of miscarriage and facilitate a healthy pregnancy.
Acupuncture helps to decrease the physical cravings for tobacco. It also lessens the symptoms of withdrawal and has a generally sedative effect on the nervous system. Beta-endorphin, the natural hormone which causes physical relaxation and reduces sensitivity to pain, is released by the acupuncture treatment.
Chinese Herbal Medicine is the oldest practiced medicine, dating back several thousand years. Because herbal remedies work in harmony with the natural chemistry of our body to re-establish balance, side effects are generally very rare. Chinese Herbal Medicine is considered a very safe and effective way to promote health and wellness naturally.
Peanuts are also one of the most pesticide-contaminated crops. Fortunately, there are some relatively safe ways to reduce these negative effects. First, you can obtain Arrowhead Mills organic peanut butter. These peanuts are grown in New Mexico, and aflatoxin has not been reported to be a problem in that state due to the dry conditions.

I have been receiving acupuncture and wellness support from Monica for over ten years now. In addition to her expansive knowledge and expertise, she is highly intuitive and always seems to know just what I need. She has successfully assisted me in so many ways, including allergies, digestive issues, stress and anxiety, hormonal and reproductive support, as well as headaches. She has also supported me with healing herbs and diet/nutrition. I always leave her office feeling lighter, clearer, more relaxed and joyful, as well as a greater capacity to navigate life with ease. I absolutely would recommend

I have had ongoing sleep and fatigue issues over the last 20 years. I finally decided to try acupuncture, as I was out of other options. I chose two places. The first experience was not good - I actually felt worse. Then I saw Monica. From the very 1st treatment, I started feeling better. I mean MUCH better.
Monica is also big into functional medicine, and every single concept she has shared with me is making a difference. And we are just getting started.
I HIGHLY recommend Scottsdale Acupuncture. I've done 3 sessions now and I'm having way more good days than I've had in years and years. Needless

A true healing sanctuary. Monica is the best acupuncturist around. Her knowledge and experience with Traditional Chinese Medicine is helped me deal with overall stress and successfully overcome years of digestive issues. She is a wealth of information and gives so much to each patient. She also has a great team of people working in her space -- Dan is a great massage therapist. Highly recommend this office and the staff.

Excellent service and a very well-rounded health practitioner. Monica offers acupuncture and traditional chinese medicine treatments like herbal remedies. She also approaches every patient holistically including addressing lifestyle choices, diet and nutrition, and any external and internal triggers related to the emotional and mental states. While she is specifically known for treating women fertilities, she can treat you for anything from short-term ailments to chronic pain management. She is very hands-on, personable, easy-going, and incredibly knowledgeable. Monica's practice stands out as

My experience with Monica at Scottsdale Acupuncture was over and above my expectations. Monica has a wealth of knowledge that she shares with all patients in her practice from Acupuncture, Traditional Chinese Medicine, herbal remedies, lifestyle and food choices. The atmosphere is holistic and comfortable. It has been over two weeks since seeing Monica for my treatment and I am still feeling the positive effects of my session. I recommend Monica to anyone looking to create a better life for themselves. You want her on your team!
