The Benefits of Dong Quai

My acupuncturist swears by the benefits of Dong Quai, the female tonic, to help women with menstrual or fertility problems. It has been used as a treatment in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) for thousands of years.

It helps to balance and restore female hormones. It nurses your blood and vital energy back to normal, so that your body can function properly. It's a safe and effective way to restore health that's why I decided to use it. It helps to regulate your menstrual cycle. It can also decrease the frequency or intensity of migraine headaches associated with your period. I took it for six months which helped in healing my body and restoring my body’s hormones to balanced, thus resulting in a normal period. It can be made and drank as a tea or taken in capsule form. However, it shouldn't be used if your pregnant or breastfeeding. Other than that, I highly recommend giving it a try!

Any TCM trained professional believes that patience are necessary with regard to handling any internal problem in your body. We've become part of a culture that wants instant gratification and results; automatically if the change we’re expecting doesn't happen instantly, we aren't satisfied. Through my visits, I have learned to have patience and listen to my body. By recognizing signs and symptoms in your own body, you are better able to help an acupuncturist or other health care professional help you!
