Naturopathic Medicine For Women’s Health
A Holistic Approach to Managing Women’s Health Conditions
For too long, women’s health concerns have often been dismissed or managed with quick fixes that focus only on symptoms. Naturopathic medicine takes a different approach by addressing the root causes of hormonal imbalances, cycle irregularities, fertility struggles, weight changes, mood shifts, and other concerns that impact daily life. At Dr. Lana Wellness, we combine advanced naturopathic care with individualized nutrition plans and acupuncture to create a truly holistic approach. Together, these therapies provide women with tools not just to relieve symptoms, but to prevent future health challenges, restore balance, and improve overall quality of life.
Women’s Health Conditions Dr. Lana & the DLW Team Specialize In
PMS / PMDD
Your period doesn’t have to feel like a monthly struggle. By balancing hormones naturally through nutrition, lifestyle shifts, cleaner products, and targeted supplements, it’s possible to reduce pain, cramping, and mood swings. Regular acupuncture, scheduled around the phases of your cycle, further supports hormonal balance and can make each month far more manageable.
Irregular Periods
Irregular cycles are often a sign of an underlying imbalance rather than a condition on their own. At Dr. Lana Wellness, we use acupuncture, nutrition, and botanical medicine to support healthy cycle regulation while addressing contributing factors like stress, lifestyle habits, and metabolic health. By identifying and addressing the root cause, we help restore balance and bring more predictability to your menstrual cycle.
PMOS (formerly known as PCOS)
Polyendocrine Metabolic Ovarian Syndrome, also known as PMOS, is a leading cause of infertility and is driven by hormonal imbalances and disrupted blood sugar regulation. At Dr. Lana Wellness, we focus on restoring balance through targeted nutrition, lifestyle, and supplementation changes to lower inflammation, stabilize glucose, and support healthy ovulation.
Fibroids
Most women will develop fibroids during their lifetime. While some cause no issues, others can lead to heavy periods, anemia, pelvic pain, bloating, pain with sex, and digestive discomfort, all of which can greatly affect daily life.
Addressing the condition depends on fibroid size and symptoms. Many women experience relief through holistic options such as nutrition, supplementation, and acupuncture, which support hormone balance and reduce discomfort. Our team is here to help you explore natural options and find lasting relief!
Perimenopause /
Menopause
The transition into menopause is natural, but symptoms like hot flashes, fatigue, mood shifts, and disrupted sleep can take a toll. At Dr. Lana Wellness, we support women through this stage with nutrition, supplementation, and lifestyle strategies that ease discomfort and promote steady energy, restful sleep, and overall balance.
UTIs
UTIs are a common and painful concern for many women and one of the most frequent reasons antibiotics are prescribed. While antibiotics can be necessary, repeated use may disrupt gut health and the balance of healthy vaginal flora.
Naturopathic care offers alternatives and support. Targeted supplements, dietary adjustments during flare-ups, and acupuncture can help reduce symptoms, promote faster recovery, and support long-term urinary health. Our team can guide you in finding natural solutions to help prevent and manage UTI symptoms with greater ease!
Sexual Health:
HPV, HSV, ETC
HPV and HSV (types 1 and 2) are very common viruses that can impact both physical health and emotional wellbeing.
At DLW, we support patients in managing symptoms and reducing flare-ups through antiviral herbs, immune-supportive nutrition, blood sugar balance, and acupuncture. Our goal is to help you feel empowered, supported, and confident in your sexual health.
Stopping Birth Control /
Post Birth Control Syndrome
Many women are choosing to come off hormonal birth control to restore hormonal balance naturally. At DLW, we guide you through this transition and support your body as it re-establishes hormonal rhythm.
Our approach helps reduce common post-pill symptoms like acne, mood swings, weight changes, and cycle irregularities. Ready to feel balanced again? Our team is here to support you every step of the way.
Dysmenorrhea
Dysmenorrhea refers to severe menstrual cramps often accompanied by nausea, vomiting, and digestive upset. These symptoms are caused by high levels of prostaglandins, which trigger strong uterine contractions.
At DLW, we help balance prostaglandin levels through nutrition, herbal support, acupuncture, and cupping to ease pain and improve cycle comfort.
Endometriosis
Endometriosis occurs when endometrial tissue grows outside the uterus, often on the abdomen or rectum. This can cause chronic pelvic pain and severe menstrual cramps as the tissue sheds each cycle.
Because endometriosis is Estrogen-dependent, care at DLW focuses on regulating Estrogen levels through nutrition, supplements, and lifestyle support to help reduce symptoms and improve quality of life.
