Women's Health
Women’s Health Acupuncture
Women’s Health Acupuncture is designed to support women through all of the reproductive
phases of their lives, from puberty to menopause, and all of the challenges that they entail.
Adolescent Transformation
As an adolescent girl matures into a vibrant woman, she goes through a phase marked with many changes, growth and development called puberty. During this often-challenging time we
support the smooth transition of teenage girls as they gracefully enter womanhood. We offer treatments for commonly experienced conditions such as stress, PMS, menstrual cramps, menstrual irregularity, eating disorders, acne, and more
Conception
For women that are ready to start a family we offer support that is customized to fit your specific needs. Whether it is preparing your body for conception, supporting a healthy pregnancy, or fertility support. We use a combination of acupuncture, Chinese herbs, massage therapy, nutritional & exercise advice, along with mindset coaching to get you positive results. We treat common conditions that may make it difficult to conceive such as endometriosis, PCOS, hypothyroidism, and more.
Empowered Pregnancy, Birth and Motherhood
Pregnancy is a special time in a woman’s life. We are here to honor, celebrate and support you throughout your journey. If you are suffering from nausea, exhaustion, muscle pain, insomnia, stress, or anxiety, we are here to help and ensure the healthiest and most pleasant pregnancy possible. If the baby happens to be breech, acupuncture and moxibustion often works great to turn a breech presentation. If you are past your due date and are being pressured for an induction, we can gently promote the onset of labor with acupuncture and massage therapy and help avoid a chemical induction.
The birthing process is the most sacred and powerful time in a woman’s life. It is our goal to make it a memorable and empowering experience full of love and joy. In addition to being trained in acupuncture during labor and delivery, Yelena Binder, proprietor of Cataleya Wellness and lead acupuncturist and massage therapist is also a DONA Certified Doula.

We are here to make the transition into motherhood as pleasant, gentle, joyful and rewarding as possible. We are here to support with postpartum, lactation, residual swelling, muscle aches and tension associated with breastfeeding. We can treat blocked ducts and mastitis with cupping, herbs, acupuncture and massage, removing the need of potentially harmful antibiotics. We use nourishing herbs and gentle acupuncture and/or massage to restore and replenish the mother after pregnancy and birth. We encourage beautiful bonding between mama and baby through gentle infant massage that also relieves gassiness, tummy aches and colic. Please click here for more information on pediatric acupuncture.
