Are you in perimenopause or menopause and looking for natural ways to feel like yourself again?
Are hot flashes and night sweats interrupting your days and your sleep?
Maybe your cycles are becoming irregular with periods coming every 2 weeks or lengthening to 30 days or longer.
Perhaps you're waking at 3am and just can't get back to sleep.
Is brain fog disrupting your focus or are you easily irritated or suddenly sad?
Maybe you're dealing with weight gain, joint pain, vaginal dryness or low libido that seem to have come out of nowhere.
Or perhaps you can't or would rather not use hormone therapy or you want more natural support alongside it.
Acupuncture and Chinese medicine have been used for centuries to support women through this transition. Research suggests they may ease many common symptoms, especially hot flashes, sleep disruption and stress.
My work blends traditional acupuncture and herbal medicine with modern, evidence-informed care — because perimenopause and menopause deserve both the ancient wisdom and modern science.
Menopause Care that Listens, So You Can Feel Like Yourself Again.
I'm Jen Cherewaty. A Registered Acupuncturist (RAc), Registered Traditional Chinese Medicine Practitioner (RTCMP), and former doula.
With over 21 years of experience in women's health, I've supported women through many of life's transitions from conception through pregnancy, postpartum and then perimenopause/menopause.
Perimenopause and menopause bring significant changes to your hormones, your energy, your identity and even your relationships. You deserve support from someone who listens to all your symptoms and looks at the whole picture.
My approach blends acupuncture, Chinese and herbal medicine intuitive, holistic, and it's evidence-informed. My goal is to help your body find balance so you can sleep, think clearly and feel like yourself again.
Imagine...
-sleeping deeper and longer
-getting through a meeting without a hot flash
-feeling steady in your body and mood

Women most often come to me for hot flashes, night sweats, insomnia, mood changes, anxiety, fatigue, brain fog, joint pain and low libido.
Research is strongest for hot flashes, sleep and mood-related symptoms, and every woman responds differently.
Not at all.

Irregular cycles, heavier or lighter flow, worsening PMS, poor sleep and mood shifts are all common early signs, and support at this stage can make the transition smoother.
Often yes.
Many women use acupuncture alongside HRT for additional symptom relief.
Herbal medicine is always coordinated with your medications and your healthcare providers.
