The Gentle Needle Guy — Traditional Chinese Medicine & Modern Care
Supporting Women’s Health with Acupuncture & Chinese Medicine
Women’s health concerns can affect energy, mood, sleep, and daily comfort. At The Gentle Needle Guy, acupuncture and traditional Chinese medicine are used to support hormonal balance and reproductive wellbeing through personalised, one-on-one care.
Sessions focus on understanding your individual pattern across the menstrual cycle, stress load, lifestyle habits, and symptoms such as PMS, cramps, irregular cycles, fertility goals, or perimenopause/menopause changes. Rather than quick fixes, treatment aims to gently support regulation within the body’s natural rhythms. Individual responses vary, and care is adjusted over time according to your needs, comfort, and stage of life.
Common Concerns People Seek Support For
PMS, cramps, heavy or painful periods
Irregular cycles / cycle support
Hormonal changes (peri/menopause)
Hot flushes, night sweats, temperature swings
Fertility / preconception support
PCOS and cycle irregularity support
Mood changes linked to hormones (irritability, low mood, anxiety)
How Acupuncture May Help
Acupuncture is traditionally used to:
Support nervous system regulation (stress response and recovery)
Encourage healthy circulation and reduce pelvic/abdominal tension
Support sleep quality and energy regulation during hormonal change
Assist digestive comfort and inflammation patterns that may affect wellbeing
Promote overall balance from a TCM perspective (rather than “chasing symptoms”)
From a TCM viewpoint, hormonal and menstrual health is closely connected to stress load, sleep, digestion, and circulation. Care is tailored to your body, your cycle, and your goals — whether that’s symptom relief, cycle regulation support, fertility preparation, or menopause transition support.

Patient Experience After Acupuncture
This short video features a patient sharing her personal experience following acupuncture sessions, describing how treatment helped her feel more grounded, calmer, and more in tune with her body. She reflects that acupuncture supported a stronger sense of connection and awareness — noticing what her body was feeling day to day, rather than pushing through symptoms or guessing what was “normal” for her.
In the context of women’s health, this matters because hormonal shifts can influence mood, energy, sleep, and how the body responds to stress across the cycle. Acupuncture is traditionally used to support nervous system regulation and healthy circulation, which may help people feel more stable and balanced during hormonal change. The clip is shared as an individual reflection rather than a guaranteed outcome, and care is tailored progressively based on comfort, cycle patterns, and long-term wellbeing goals.
Who This May Suit
Period pain, PMS, clotting, or heavy bleeding
Irregular cycles or hormonal “ups and downs”
Fertility preparation or cycle awareness support
Perimenopause/menopause symptoms (hot flushes, sleep disruption, mood changes)
Post-stress hormonal disruption (fatigue, anxiety, brain fog)
Ongoing tension patterns that flare around your cycle
