Cupping is an ancient technique that involves placing jars on the skin, suctioning out the air and creating a vacuum. The underlying tissue is raised, or sucked, partway into the cup. The purpose of cupping is to enhance circulation, help relieve pain, remove "heat, " and pull toxins from your body's tissues.
Chinese Medicine has always addressed gynecological problems. Since the 1950's, we have increasingly seen it combined with Western Medicine. In the two articles below, I discuss fertility from a Chinese Medicine perspective as well as how to combine it with conventional Western practices.

Offering online consultations to women dealing with Vulvodynia, Pelvic Floor Dysfunction and other types of Vulvar pain. In my Chicago office, I have successfully treated women with Chinese Medicine which includes acupuncture, herbs, lifestyle and dietary suggestions.

Many insurance companies are now covering acupuncture. The best way to determine whether your carrier covers acupuncture treatment, is to call them directly. In all cases, you will pay for your treatment and receive a receipt that you send to your insurance company for reimbursement. If you are not covered by insurance, you can still consider your payments as medical expenses that you may be able to write off on your taxes.
This unique book is designed for individuals who want to learn more about the practices and philosophy of Chinese Medicine, for practitioners who want to educate their patients, for those thinking about training as an acupuncturist, and for patients who already love their treatments and want to understand more about how they work.

I have been seeing Jennifer for over 2 years. I love her practice. She is very helpful with my headaches, back and neck pains. I have done acupuncture and cupping as well which I find as a great additional treatment to acupuncture. Jennifer also carries Chinese herbs and some supplements so which is very convenient. Highly recommended.

Just over a year ago, I went see Jennifer for cupping and much needed upper back pain relief. After only one session, I felt so much better! I continued to visit her office regularly and started incorporating acupuncture into the sessions. Initially, I was really nervous, but now I’m hooked. My life long problematic skin is now perfect, my digestion is regular, I sleep better, PMS is less stressful, and I’m no longer in chronic pain. If you want to improve the quality of your life, I highly recommend Jennifer and TCM!

I tried acupuncture with other practitioners before but never saw any results; however, that wasn't the case with Jennifer. After one session, I experienced pain-free movement in my wrists for the first time in a long time. Her office is very inviting and peaceful; her procedure room is clean and comfortable and Jennifer's a caring and skillful practitioner. If you're looking for medication-free pain relief, I recommend scheduling a session with Jennifer.

I have known Jenny for many years, and I have nothing but good things to say about her. She is warm, easy to talk to, committed to helping people feel better, and incredibly knowledgeable about the human body. So, whether you are an acupuncture newbie or a more experienced sort, you'll know right away that you are in good hands with this practitioner. Parking is no problem, and her prices are fair. I can't recommend her highly enough.

I've been seeing Jenny for 6 weeks for chronic tailbone pain that I've had for a year and a half. I tried chiropractic medicine and physical therapy, neither relieved my pain. The orthopedic surgeon suggested a cortisone injection. He said it was my only option to get relief. Instead of going through with the injection, a friend suggested I see Jenny and I'm so glad I did. I have been without pain for 4 weeks. She is incredibly intelligent and professional. I was amazed with the results I experienced after the first visit. I thought I was going to suffer from this pain for the rest of my life,
