The Origin Center

From a patient testimonial regarding treatment for painful in*******se, which can be common in women with endometriosis, peri-menopausal women and in other instances as well.

"I wanted to let you know that s*x is only improving... I'm amazed at how my pain has diminished so quickly. I feel like a new woman! I can't tell you how much it means to me after several years of feeling less than. It's truly remarkable and I am so grateful for your perseverance… Seriously, thank you."

The practitioners at The Origin Center have read and studied...a lot. We believe in empowering our patients by sharing the knowledge we have acquired through extensive study and practice.

One way we share knowledge is by creating "handouts" that we send to our patients to address their own unique health concerns. These include dietary recommendations, instructions for different kinds of self care practices at home, fertility basics, and much more.

While acupuncture sessions are incredibly healing, the lifestyle changes adopted by our patients often make the biggest difference in overall health, wellness and vitality.

Call the clinic today -- we would love to create an individualized healing plan for you.

This cheerful yellow flower is a well-known and welcome beacon of spring! But did you know that the forsythia plant, known in East Asian medicine as Lian qiao, is used in many modern and ancient herbal formulations?

The part of the plant used in herbalism is the "fruit" rather than the flower, and is harvested in early- to mid- autumn.

Lian qiao is considered "bitter" and "cold" in nature and is often used in combination with other herbs to treat early signs of illness caused by heat and toxicity, such as a sore throat or fever. It can also be used topically to treat abscesses or nodules.

Our practitioners at The Origin Center are highly trained in herbal medicine as well as acupuncture. Schedule a visit today if you think East Asian herbs and acupuncture might be helpful to you!

At The Origin Center, we treat women of all ages who suffer from painful periods and other complications of endometriosis. In light of March being , we would like to share this simple breathing practice that can help soothe the nervous system and reduce acute premenstrual pelvic and low back pain, which can often be severe in women with this condition.

Physiologically, the pain and inflammation of endometriosis causes more muscle tension, including in the pelvic floor, which then exacerbates a seemingly infinite loop of pain and tension. Use the above practice to help release muscle tension while relaxing the mind.

If you or someone you love is struggling with endometriosis, the practitioners at The Origin Center have many tools to address the widespread pain, inflammation, fertility struggles and other issues that are woven into this complex presentation. Call today to learn more: periods don't have to be painful.
