Infertility struggles have become more and more common in recent years. There are many physical and environmental contributors to infertility and couples dealing with this issue are desperate for solutions. As it makes its way into the mainstream health world, acupuncture has become more of a go-to treatment method for both males and females; and there is plenty of valid research to back up these claims. More traditional forms of treatment such as IVF can be expensive and emotionally challenging for many couples. These more conventional treatment options require medical testing, a great deal of consultation, and could include hormone or other injections depending on the causative factors involved. What studies have shown is that acupuncture can help with the issues that might be causing infertility. Acupuncture has been found to be highly effective in dealing with irregular ovulation, endometriosis, hormonal imbalance, amenorrhea, and stress-related issues that can cause a women’s cycle to be imbalanced. For females dealing with infertility, acupuncture can help with reducing stress, strengthening the endometrial lining, and even improving blood flow to the reproductive organs. There are several studies that have shown that acupuncture in conjunction with IVF is a great combination as the acupuncture has increased the chances of conceiving because it does help with many of these underlying factors like blood flow and stress. Acupuncture has also been shown to help women conceive quickly and minimize the risks of miscarriage to help ensure a full-term pregnancy. Just as women can have severe fertility issues, so can men. Studies have shown that acupuncture can help male issues such as erectile dysfunction and lower sperm counts. One of the main advantages of acupuncture for men is that it can improve the health and strength of individual sperm cells. So, what can you expect from regular acupuncture treatments if you are dealing with infertility? The frequency and length of the sessions really does depend on what types of issues you are dealing with, so sessions can last a few weeks or a few months, either once or twice a week. Many women continue the treatments after conception to prevent miscarriages and other complications that can arise in the first trimester. I have all of my patients fill out a comprehensive health history to ensure that they have the proper treatment protocol for their specific issues.

The best time to get acupuncture depends on what you’re seeking care for. If you are wanting to start a family, I highly suggest getting acupuncture immediately, before trying to conceive on your own. Acupuncture increases your chances of conception, but also makes the whole process more enjoyable by helping to reduce your stress and anxiety around starting a family. I highly recommend continuing with acupuncture throughout pregnancy. I tend to believe that in your second trimester, unless you have a specific ailment or issue, you can take a break as that time is considered the golden period during your pregnancy. However, it is extremely important to proceed with acupuncture throughout your third trimester and during the fourth trimester, which is also known as the postpartum period. Continuing with acupuncture treatments postpartum helps with regaining your strength and helping with nursing as well as the stresses and anxieties of being a new mother.
In general, with all other ailments, as soon as you feel slightly off, you might not know exactly why, but that feeling of being “off” means that there is some sort of imbalance in your body and your body is trying to send you a message. Acupuncture is extremely effective in balancing your mind, body and soul, improving digestion, sleep, mental clarity, emotional well-being, sexual drive and ridding your body of most pain. Acupuncture has always been known as a preventative medicine. Remember that when dealing with your own health, it is very wise to avoid getting sick because it is much easier to avoid getting sick rather than curing an illness. Disease is dis-ease and acupuncture works wonders on putting your body in-ease. If you have any doubts on whether you should try acupuncture or if acupuncture would be beneficial for you please don't hesitate to reach out. I’d love to help you in any way I can.

Women’s health issues can be complex and unique to each person. However, traditional Western medicine solutions are full of invasive procedures that can alter hormones. Other solutions include prescription drugs that can have strong side effects for those taking them. Unfortunately, many women believe these are the only options.
However, acupuncture can be a tremendous solution in addressing a growing number of women’s health issues including: Menstrual Issues, Menopause, and Endometriosis Many women suffer from complications during their menstrual cycles. No two women are the same so this time of the month can be debilitating for some, causing extreme pain and discomfort. Acupuncture can be a great help in addressing the symptoms of endometriosis. Acupuncture can also be a solution for the headaches, cycle irregularity and abdominal cramps that come each month. Acupuncture is also a great option for those closing out their reproductive years and entering menopause. Acupuncture is an effective treatment for all the symptoms that come during this time including hot flashes, moodiness, insomnia, heart palpitations, just to name a few. Infertility and Pregnancy Pregnancy is a glorious time but it also can be challenging for many women. Acupuncture treatments can help with the low-back pain many pregnant women suffer from but it can also help with issues of morning sickness and nausea. For those suffering from infertility, acupuncture can address the irregular menstrual cycles and endometriosis that can cause these issues. Acupuncture directs blood flow to the reproductive organs to help regulate the menstrual cycle. Insomnia Research has shown that, for a variety of reasons, more women than men suffer from insomnia. Clinical studies have shown that acupuncture is a great help in improving both sleep quality and duration. But the key is regular acupuncture treatments. Depression and Anxiety For those looking for a drug-free option, clinical research has also shown that acupuncture is just as effective as antidepressants but without the harsh side effects that can come from some prescription medication. Regular acupuncture treatments can help lower blood pressure, reduce instances of anxiety and panic attacks and help to lower stress. Chronic Pain Chronic pain is an issue for millions of people and most people treat it by popping an over-the-counter pain medication. However, consistent acupuncture treatments can help with various chronic pain conditions whether from arthritis, fibromyalgia, or injury. Acupuncture can help with joint pain and the chronic inflammation that can come with arthritis. Skin Health One of the key components of acupuncture is how it increases blood flow and this can certainly benefit skin health. Facial acupuncture has been shown to reduce puffiness and diminish fine lines and wrinkles. Most women don’t think of acupuncture for its anti-aging benefits but it has been clinically proven to be a great asset to improving facial skin health, thus improving a woman’s appearance and mood. If you are looking for an effective way to treat your health issues, acupuncture is a great place to start. Head to https://yaelacuwellness.janeapp.com/ to book a free consultation today!

If you are suffering from insomnia or unable to get a good night’s rest, you are not alone. Around 60 million Americans experience insomnia and sleep related problems on a daily basis. Prescription sleeping pills are one of the most highly overused medications and can lead to side effects and addiction. Acupuncture is a centuries-old practice that has been proven to help sleep disorders without the risk of addiction or putting chemicals in the body.
How acupuncture works Acupuncture works by addressing the root of the problem to return the body back to health. One clinical study found that patients with anxiety had increased sleep time, quality of sleep and felt less stressed with acupuncture treatment. Traditional Chinese Medicine uses the meridian system, the body’s channel in which energy flows through, to stimulate Qi to return the organs to balance. When there is an imbalance in the body, illness such as insomnia arises. Acupuncture uses specific points on the body related to sleep problems to treat underlying issues. There are many problems that contribute to insomnia such as chronic pain, depression, stress, overworking, eating late at night, alcohol/drug use and last but not least, not allowing your body to wind down in response to when the sun sets. We function most optimally when we are in touch with nature. That is, waking with the sun and winding down with the sunset. Acupuncture is known to be a great alternative treatment for these related issues. In TCM, insomnia is looked at as a heart and liver imbalance. Acupuncture especially addresses these organs to help calm the nervous system and improve the muscle and nerve channels by increasing blood flow. In my practice I always look at your lifestyle habits because that plays such a huge role in how you feel, sleep and how your digestion works. 10 Tips for Better Sleep: Many of us find it hard to fall asleep at night and stay asleep, as a result we often wake up feeling groggy and not rested. Sometimes improving sleep is as simple as changing your habits during the day. Below are easy ways that can dramatically help you get a good night’s rest! Cut yourself off in the afternoon. Believe it or not, even having caffeine at 2pm can affect your sleep. Make sure to get that last cup of coffee in beforehand and watch out for certain drinks you may forget have caffeine in them such as soda and many teas. Try restorative yoga. Practicing deep breathing and stretching before bed can help relax the mind and body. Try spending even just ten minutes stretching and practicing mindfulness. Limit your screen time. Let’s face it, we are all addicted to our phones and computers. It’s tempting to look at your phone until the moment you fall asleep. Turn off all electronics an hour before bed to help the brain get into sleep mode. The screens on your devices make it hard for the brain to relax. Acupuncture. If you are finding yourself struggling with inability to get a good night’s rest, or insomnia, you may want to consider acupuncture treatment. Acupuncture is non-invasive and has been proven to reduce stress, help chronic pain and increase quality of sleep. Aromatherapy. Lavender has been proven to lead to a better, deeper sleep and help those with insomnia fall asleep more easily. Sniff or rub lavender oil on your wrists before bed to feel the effects. Exercise. Exercising regularly has many health benefits. It can also help you get a better sleep. Even just 20 minutes of some form of exercise a day can make a difference. Cut down on the alcohol. Although some drink a glass of wine before bed to unwind and fall asleep, you are actually more likely to get a poorer quality of sleep. If you do decide to drink, do so earlier in the night to ensure a deep sleep. Spend time outside. Spend time outdoors during the daylight hours. Try different outdoor activities. Camping, for example, has been shown to help reset the sleep cycle of insomniacs. Your body will be able to reset itself after a couple of days, allowing your circadian rhythm to get you back into a proper sleeping pattern. This theory goes hand in hand with some of TCM’s primary principles; staying in tune with nature. Change the lighting. We are all sensitive to light. Before the regular use of artificial lighting, humans spent their evenings in a slow transition to nighttime darkness. In the evening create a darker environment in your home to help your brain ease out of the daytime stimulation and start slowing down. Alternatively, when you wake up in the morning, be sure to open the shades and turn the lights on again to help tell the brain to wake up and get going. Consistency is essential and will help train your brain and balance your circadian rhythm. Plan for sleep. Setting a bedtime, and sticking with it, can help reset your sleep cycle. Implement a routine and do the same things nightly before going to bed. If you are struggling to fall asleep on time, consider a wind-down routine. Create a routine for yourself that may include a cup of tea, a yoga or tai chi session, reading or writing, experiment with what feels best for your mind and body.

You’ve just had a baby and you’re probably wondering what is the best way that you can support yourself at this moment in your life.
Ask yourself: How do I prioritize both my health and the health of my newborn? What can I do to feel empowered and more grounded? Who in my circle can support me during this time when I need them? Traditional Chinese Medicine focuses on these pillars of postpartum care: Rest Postpartum is a time for rest and recovery. Your body is adjusting and slowly returning to its pre-pregnancy state. It’s important to spend your first 40 days at home, tending to yourself and your baby, so that both your mind and body have time to rest. Take lots of naps! These days are essential to avoid any long term health consequences that might arise from the exhaustion and fatigue of pushing your body beyond its threshold. It’s the time to ask for help and lean on your circle of support, so that you can spend more time resting and caring for your baby. Warmth Postpartum is considered a cool stage, whereas pregnancy is a hot stage. Make sure you stay in a warm environment to conserve heat and build warmth. We call it “Mother Roasting” – making sure you keep warm, both in external temperature and by consuming warming foods and herbs. Nourishing Foods Consuming foods that are going to build blood and heal tissue are essential during the postpartum period. If you’re breastfeeding, your body also faces increased nutritional demands. During this time it’s important to consume pre and probiotic foods, nutrient-dense, whole foods that include quality protein and brightly colored fruits and vegetables. You’ll also want to focus on including more iron rich and healthy fats in your diet by eating foods like spinach, lean meats, liver, fatty fish, walnuts, flaxseeds, and olive oil. Bone broth has amazing collagen-building properties, amino acids, and nutrients your body needs at this time. You’ll also want to eat in a way that supports blood sugar stability. The best way to do this is, when it’s easy, eat your veggies first, then proteins and fats, and starches last. Add a veggie starter to meals or add healthy fats or protein to carb-heavy foods, like oatmeal, to lessen a blood sugar spike. Remember to stay hydrated and minimize or eliminate sugar and caffeine. Bodywork Your body is so amazing and it’s gone through so much at this time. It’s supported you and your baby throughout your pregnancy journey, and now needs to adjust back to its pre-pregnancy state. The uterus has to heal by shedding and closing the placenta spot and your perineum must recover from stretching. All of the organs within your body must make their way back into their new space. During this time it’s best to work with a pelvic floor therapist or practice pelvic floor exercises that can assist with recovery, use a pelvic wrap or belt for additional support, and slowly begin to move your body in nourishing ways that feel good to you. Also, massaging your feet daily can support circulation and strengthen your immune system. As you begin to embrace these four pillars, make sure to tend to your emotional wellbeing, too. Take time for self-care, practice gratitude, breathe, journal, and find the little moments throughout your day where you can pause and relax. Acupuncture is a great way to support your body postpartum. How does acupuncture help postpartum? 1. Speeds Recovery Process Whether you’ve had a c-section delivery or a natural birth, acupuncture helps enhance postpartum healing. It was mandatory for a woman to rest for 40 days after giving birth to ensure maximum recovery in ancient Chinese traditions. However, in today’s fast-paced world, we see moms getting back on their feet and taking on responsibilities as fast as they can. Acupuncture can help bring that balance back in their life, stabilize emotions and reduce night sweats. 2. Increases Milk Supply According to studies, acupuncture has proven to increase milk production in breastfeeding women. It can also help you breastfeed your baby longer if you have a low supply or experience any pain while nursing. 3. Reduces Pain Labor and birth isn’t an easy process; many women experience pain and aches even after giving birth. This is when acupuncture comes to play; a session can help reduce soreness, fatigues, and pain, helping your body relax. 4. Helps You Relax Welcoming a baby can mean endless joy, but stress, worry, and tiredness also tag along. As a new mother, your body will be on high alert for the baby, making sleeping and resting almost impossible. Acupuncture calms your nervous system and promotes stability in the body and mind. This reduces stress and anxiety reduces the risk of postpartum depression. 5. Promotes Healthy Menstrual Cycles Pregnancy and labor can cause your hormones to fluctuate. Acupuncture can re-establish healthy menstrual cycles and address issues like heavy flow, irregular cycles, and painful periods.

Bringing a child into the world is one of life’s greatest gifts. But, along with the anticipation of that little bundle of joy, often comes some physical challenges and discomfort that can make for a long nine months. Did you know that acupuncture has been shown to address several issues that come up during pregnancy? Here’s what to know about the benefits of acupuncture during pregnancy and what the research actually says is true.
Morning Sickness One of the most difficult aspects of pregnancy for many women is morning sickness. For some women, it can be severe and last throughout the day. The medical term for this severe form of nausea and vomiting is called hyperemesis gravidarum. A 2021 review of 16 previously published studies concluded that acupuncture was effective in dealing with severe nausea during pregnancy. Aches & Pains (including Labor Pain) The human body changes in amazing ways during pregnancy and that often brings with it pelvic and back pain in the second and third trimesters. A 2021 and a 2018 study both found acupuncture to be safe and effective in addressing lower back pain. Overall, acupuncture has been shown by many studies to help with labor pain management. For example, a 2020 review examined 28 more recent studies and found that acupuncture was effective in helping to manage labor pain and reduce the need for other pain medications including epidural. One of the largest studies conducted involved more than 600 pregnant women and compared those using acupuncture during labor to those who used other methods like traditional pain medications or transcutaneous electric nerve stimulation. Researchers found that those in the acupuncture group had a lower chance of using other pain relieving measures. Breech Babies Researchers have also found that acupuncture can be a great treatment option when a baby is breech. Studies show that stimulating acupuncture points BL67 and Sl1 between weeks 32 and 35 might help turn babies so they can present headfirst. In this study, participants were given 30-minute treatments for 3 days in a week and it was combined with moxibustion, another Chinese medicine treatment. Depression Anxiety and depression can be difficult to address during pregnancy but are more common than most women think. A small study performed in 2010 found that both acupuncture and massage helped women who had developed depressive symptoms. Researchers found that those in the acupuncture group had a reduction in overall symptoms as compared to women who underwent more traditional depression treatments. Overall, studies have shown acupuncture to be a safe and effective alternative to dealing with many of the challenges that come with pregnancy. Acupuncture has also been shown effective in dealing with fertility issues, so you may want to begin treatments even before pregnancy to optimize your fertility and overall well-being.

Acupuncture is an effective medical treatment that has evolved into a complete holistic health care system. Practitioners of acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) have used this noninvasive treatment method to help millions of people become well and stay well. Acupuncture promotes natural healing. It can enhance recuperative power and immunity, support physical and emotional health, and improve overall function and well-being. It is a safe, painless and effective way to treat a wide variety of medical conditions. Acupuncture meridian points activate the body’s innate healing abilities that acupuncturists call Qi (pronounced “chee”). According to TCM, Qi is the vital energy that animates the body and protects it from illness. Qi flows through pathways called meridians and provides nourishment to the body’s cells, tissues, muscles, organs and glands. When there is an imbalance or blockage in the flow of Qi, symptoms associated with the condition or illness may appear. Acupuncture is just one aspect of TCM. There are many modalities within TCM that may effectively contribute to restoring the body’s natural healing ability. How does Qi move? Qi flows through specific pathways called meridians. There are 14 main meridians inside the body. Each of these is connected to specific organs and glands. Meridian pathways are like rivers flowing inside the body. Where a river flows, it transports life- giving water that provides nourishment to the land, plants and people. Similarly, where meridian pathways flow, they bring life-giving Qi that provides nourishment to every cell, organ, gland, tissue and muscle in the body. How is Qi disrupted? When Qi becomes disrupted in one part of the body, the flow becomes restricted in other parts. This blockage of Qi can be detrimental to a person’s health, cutting off vital nourishment to the body, organs and glands. Physical and emotional trauma, stress, lack of exercise, overexertion, seasonal changes, poor diet, accidents, or excessive activity are among the many things that can influence the quality, quantity and balance of Qi. Normally, when a blockage or imbalance occurs, the body easily bounces back, returning to a state of health and well-being. However, when this disruption is prolonged or excessive, or if the body is in a weakened state, illness, pain or disease can set in. Acupuncture and Modern Science From a modern scientific perspective, stimulation of acupuncture meridian points causes the release of nervous-system chemicals in our brain, spinal cord, and muscles that help restore the body’s ability to heal naturally. These chemicals provide tremendous health benefits, whether it is influencing your body to heal more quickly, or simply altering how you may be experiencing your pain. Regardless, the healing and regenerative properties of acupuncture and Traditional Chinese Medicine are truly amazing; the only way to find out if acupuncture is the perfect treatment plan for you is to give it a try. Acupuncture and Chinese medicine are safe, effective and drug-free therapies that can help address a wide variety of common ailments and problems. During the initial exam, an acupuncturist will take a full health history. They will ask questions regarding your health, symptoms and lifestyle. An appropriate physical exam is also conducted, which may include pulse and tongue evaluations. Gathering this information enables the practitioner to effectively diagnose and detect any specific imbalances of Qi that may be contributing to a person’s health problems. This enables the practitioner to create a well-structured treatment plan. Once imbalances of Qi are detected, an acupuncturist will place fine, sterile needles at specific acupuncture points located along your meridian pathways. The safe and often painless insertion of these needles can unblock any obstructions and rebalance Qi in these pathways. When Qi can circulate freely throughout the body, it provides adequate nourishment to cells, organs, glands, tissues and muscles. This circulation can eliminate pain and restore balance as well as the body’s ability to heal itself ultimately leading to optimal health and well-being. Interested in giving acupuncture a try?

Constipation can lead to stool accumulation in the rectum, which exerts pressure on the bladder. This pressure can result in urinary leaks during daytime and sleep, causing the feeling of urgency like "I have to go now! I can't hold it anymore!" or the unpleasant realization of an accident, saying, "Oh no, it came out."
Bedwetting in older children can stem from various causes, and constipation is one of the most common culprits. It's important to note that children can experience constipation even if they have a daily bowel movement. It's also essential to rule out other potential causes, such as sleep apnea, enlarged tonsils or adenoids, and family history. At Westchester Pelvic Health, our team of experts at Physical Therapy 4 Kids specializes in helping children improve muscle coordination, enhance bowel emptying, and resolve urinary leaks and bedwetting issues. Understanding this is not a behavioral problem is crucial, as no child willingly wants to soil themselves. If you find yourself frustrated with these symptoms, it's time to seek our 1:1 care in a private setting. Our appointments are tailored to provide dedicated attention and last for one hour. Please note that the information provided is for educational purposes only and should not be considered medical advice. If you are concerned about your child, don't hesitate to contact us for an evaluation. We're here to help. Prana Practitioner Wendy Kaplan-Lager, PT is the Owner and Director of Physical Therapy 4 Kids. I want to address something that comes up in our prenatal yoga classes a lot, more than people probably realize. Pregnancy is hard, and for some reason our society downplays how hard it is. And we’re made to feel guilty or even ungrateful if we don’t love every single second of it, because it’s been so romanticized. In turn we feel we can’t outwardly communicate what’s going on and how we’re feeling, so we hold it in or just say “I’m fine” or “I’m okay.”
We are suffering in silence which is not okay. There has been a lot of coverage on the tragedy surrounding Lindsay Clancy in Massachusetts and her children, and my heart goes out to everyone impacted by this. This unfortunately isn’t the first time something like this has happened, but I think part of the reason why people are so taken aback by this particular incident is because for all intents and purposes, this mom “had it all together.” Beautiful healthy children, loving and supporting husband, nice house in the suburbs, great job as a labor and delivery nurse. Someone in her family was quoted as saying that they spoke to her last week and nothing seemed amiss. Another family member said they had a beautiful life. I think we all need to remember that women of every single culture, race, age group, income level, education level, and marital status develop perinatal mood and anxiety disorders. Whether you breastfeed, formula feed, have healthy babies or those with medical challenges, first time parents, or those with more than one child…there is no exemption. We need to stop thinking “it can’t happen to me.” If you’re currently pregnant or have had a baby within the past year, please utilize your local resources. Do not suffer in silence. This is especially true for women of color who statistically speaking are at a higher risk of postpartum depression than Caucasian women. We need to let go of this superwoman notion where we feel it’s our responsibility to do everything on our own. Here at Prana Prenatal Yoga we partner with some of the best maternal mental health experts in Westchester County, including Dr. Layne Raskin and Dr. Kira Bartlett. Consider hiring a postpartum doula, even if just for a few weeks. We also have a new moms support group and a toddler parent support group. There’s also The Motherhood Center of New York, Shades of Blue Project, Just Birth Space, Every Mother Counts, Ashe Birthing Services, and The Flourish Fund. A big takeaway from all of this is that we need to check on our strong friends. Those people in your life who seem to have it all together, the ones you never have to worry about, everything is great and they have everything under control. Those are the ones who almost always are suffering in silence. If someone in your life recently had a baby or is about to have one, gift them a meal. Drop it off on their doorstep or if you don’t live in their area, send them an UberEats gift card. Or better yet, organize a meal train for them. Drive them to an appointment or to run their errands so that they can rest in the backseat with their baby. Be prepared to visit briefly with the baby and spend the bulk of your time there cleaning the house. Or be prepared to hang out with the baby while the mom enjoys a long, hot, uninterrupted shower. Encourage them to use the resources I mentioned and tagged. Actively listen to them. Educate yourself on what baby blues and PMADs are and what some of the signs are. All of that goes a long way, a lot further than we even realize. Because I promise you, every single new mom would beg, borrow, and steal if she had to in order to make sure her baby has diapers, wipes, and nourishment. But at the end of the day, who is holding the mother? Please follow and share the resources mentioned above, and remember that we cannot continue to suffer in silence. We are not meant to navigate pregnancy and the fourth trimester alone. With love, Marissa |
