PCOS

Rooted Support for PCOS

Restoring Hormonal Balance Through Gentle, Whole-Body Care

Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) can affect far more than your cycle. It can influence your energy, skin, emotions, digestion, and sense of connection to your body. Often, the deeper struggle is not just the symptoms—but the feeling of disconnection or being misunderstood.

At Scottsdale Family Acupuncture, we offer a slow, steady return to balance. Our approach supports your body’s natural intelligence, helping regulate hormones, restore cycles, and create a path toward peace in your body again.

Your body is not working against you. It’s asking to be heard—and we’re here to listen.

​

How We Support Your Healing

We treat PCOS as a whole-body pattern—not a diagnosis to suppress, but a system to rebalance. Every plan is tailored to your constitution, cycle, and goals.

​

Acupuncture for Hormonal Regulation

Acupuncture helps regulate the body’s systems by:

  • Supporting healthy ovulation

  • Regulating menstrual cycles and reducing long gaps or irregularity

  • Calming the nervous system and reducing cortisol, which impacts hormone conversion

  • Reducing bloating, PMS, and cramping

Acupuncture also improves blood flow to the ovaries and uterus, gently encouraging your body’s rhythm to re-establish itself.

​

Herbal & Nutritional Support

Personalized herbal remedies are created based on your tongue, pulse, symptoms, and goals. These may help:

  • Support digestion, insulin sensitivity, and metabolism

  • Regulate cycles and reduce excess androgens (acne, facial hair, etc.)

  • Clear dampness and heat (common TCM patterns in PCOS)

  • Boost energy, mood, and reproductive function

Formulas evolve with you as your body rebalances.

​

Lifestyle & Daily Rhythm Guidance

We’ll support you in creating daily rhythms that stabilize hormones naturally:

  • Gentle, sustainable movement to improve insulin function

  • Anti-inflammatory food guidance that supports spleen and liver function

  • Cycle-based planning to reduce overwhelm and burnout

  • Rest practices to reset cortisol and promote hormonal flow

No crash diets, no rigid plans—just rooted, rhythm-based care.

​

Your Healing Timeline

Healing from PCOS isn’t linear—it moves in rhythms. We meet your body where it’s at.

​

What Women Often Share

“My cycle is finally regular—and I’m not afraid of it anymore.”
“I didn’t expect this much calm.”
“I feel like I’m living in rhythm with my body again.”

​

Evidence-Based, Rooted in Wisdom

  • A 2017 study (Clinical Endocrinology) showed that acupuncture improved ovulation and hormonal regulation in women with PCOS

  • A 2020 study (Journal of Women’s Health) found acupuncture reduced stress and inflammation linked to PCOS symptoms

  • A 2019 review (Frontiers in Endocrinology) confirmed the role of traditional herbal medicine in supporting metabolic and endocrine function

  • ​

We believe the female body was created with wisdom and rhythm—and that healing, especially in the area of fertility, is a deeply sacred process.
