It always amazes me when I see a new female client and I ask about her cycle and if she has raging pms symptoms, she will invariably reply "I have the normal pms symptoms". Then I think, what's "normal" about extreme and crazy mood swings, irritability, breast tenderness, cramps and bloating? PMS is commonly accepted in the west as a normal part of a woman's monthly cycle. But to a Traditional Chinese practitioner, it is something that should be and can be harmonized. With acupuncture and Chinese herbal therapy, we can see results between 1-3 cycles. Everyone varies, of course. But if your raging emotions get less intense to non-existent each month, and you simply get a period without all the hoopla, imagine how much better life could be.
