Your period has become a monthly emergency – soaking through super tampons hourly, canceling everything for fear of accidents, living with chronic exhaustion from blood loss. The iron supplements barely help the anemia, birth control made you sick, and surgery feels too extreme. At Advanced Holistic Center, we normalize menstrual flow naturally through targeted acupuncture that addresses the hormonal imbalances and uterine dysfunction causing your heavy bleeding.
New York’s premier destination for heavy periods acupuncture therapy provides hope when conventional options have failed or caused unbearable side effects. Our practitioners understand that menorrhagia isn’t just inconvenient – it’s depleting your body, limiting your activities, and controlling your life every month.
Heavy menstrual bleeding stems from multiple factors: hormonal imbalances preventing proper uterine lining regulation, blood clotting disorders, uterine fibroids, or simply constitutional weakness affecting blood control. Medications mask symptoms without addressing causes. Acupuncture for heavy periods works by regulating the entire reproductive system, strengthening the body’s ability to control menstrual flow naturally.
Treatment balances estrogen and progesterone levels throughout your cycle, preventing the excessive endometrial buildup that leads to heavy bleeding. Specific points strengthen the spleen’s function in Traditional Chinese Medicine – governing blood containment and preventing hemorrhaging. This dual approach addresses both the hormonal triggers and the body’s capacity to regulate flow.
The hemostatic effects prove remarkable. Acupuncture enhances platelet function and clotting factors while strengthening uterine muscle tone for better contraction and vessel constriction. Women report dramatic flow reduction, shorter periods, and eliminated flooding episodes that previously disrupted their lives.
Compelling research validates acupuncture’s effectiveness for menorrhagia. A randomized controlled trial studied women with heavy menstrual bleeding receiving acupuncture treatments. Results showed 58% reduction in menstrual blood loss, improved hemoglobin levels, and enhanced quality of life scores maintained at six-month follow-up.
British researchers compared acupuncture to conventional menorrhagia treatments. The acupuncture group achieved flow normalization comparable to hormonal therapy but without weight gain, mood changes, or cardiovascular risks. Remarkably, 73% of participants avoided previously planned surgical interventions.
Shanghai University documented acupuncture’s effects on blood coagulation during menstruation. Treatment improved clotting time, increased platelet aggregation, and reduced bleeding duration by average of two days. These physiological changes persisted, suggesting acupuncture creates lasting improvements in hemostatic function.
Since 2004, we’ve successfully treated over 4,500 women with heavy menstrual bleeding, including complex cases with fibroids, adenomyosis, and bleeding disorders. Our practitioners specialize in gynecological conditions with advanced training in blood disorders.
We collaborate with gynecologists and hematologists throughout New York, ensuring comprehensive care whether you’re managing simple heavy flow or complex conditions requiring coordinated treatment.
Both Financial District and Brooklyn clinics accommodate urgent needs with same-day appointments for severe bleeding. Private rooms with immediate restroom access provide comfort during heavy flow days.
Our team helps track your flow patterns, coordinates lab work for anemia monitoring, and handles insurance claims. We accept most commercial insurance plans and submit claims on your behalf, ensuring maximum coverage for your treatments.
Evaluation identifies patterns causing excessive bleeding. We determine whether spleen qi deficiency fails to contain blood, heat in the blood causes reckless flow, or blood stasis from fibroids creates heavy bleeding. Physical examination includes abdominal palpation assessing uterine size and identifying areas of stagnation.
Treatment timing throughout your cycle proves crucial. Pre-menstrual sessions regulate hormones and strengthen blood-holding function. During heavy flow, we use specific points to reduce bleeding urgently. Post-menstrual treatments rebuild blood and energy depleted by excessive loss. Abdominal points regulate uterine function while spleen points along the legs strengthen blood containment. Moxa may be applied to specific points for its hemostatic properties.
Chinese herbal formulas like Bu Zhong Yi Qi Tang strengthen the spleen’s blood-holding capacity between sessions. Dietary therapy emphasizes iron-rich foods while eliminating items that thin blood or increase flow. Moxibustion provides powerful hemostatic effects, particularly for cold-type heavy bleeding. Therapeutic exercises strengthen core muscles supporting uterine tone. Cupping therapy improves pelvic circulation while gua sha breaks up adhesions from fibroids contributing to heavy flow.
Your journey begins with detailed 90-minute consultation documenting your bleeding patterns, clot size, pad/tampon usage, and associated symptoms. We review any ultrasounds, blood work showing anemia, and previous treatments attempted. This thorough assessment ensures appropriate treatment for your specific condition.
During acute heavy bleeding, we provide urgent appointments focusing on immediate flow reduction. Specific point combinations can decrease bleeding within hours, providing relief when you need it most. The 30-minute needle retention allows deep relaxation while your body responds to treatment.
Treatment frequency depends on severity. Acute cases may need several sessions during heavy flow, then twice-weekly for cycle regulation. Most women notice flow reduction within the first treated cycle, with normalized periods by month three. We monitor your progress through bleeding diaries and coordinate iron supplementation with your physician.
How many acupuncture sessions are needed for heavy periods?
Most women require 10-15 sessions over 3-4 cycles for lasting improvement. Severe cases may need initial intensive treatment.
How quickly will bleeding reduce?
Many notice decreased flow within the first treated period. Significant normalization typically occurs by the second or third cycle.
Can acupuncture help with clots and flooding?
Yes, treatment specifically addresses clotting issues and sudden gushes, improving overall flow consistency.
Does insurance cover acupuncture for heavy periods?
Yes, we accept most commercial insurance plans and submit claims on your behalf for covered services related to menstrual disorders.
Is treatment effective for fibroid-related bleeding?
Acupuncture effectively manages bleeding from small to medium fibroids, though large fibroids may require combined approaches.
Can I continue iron supplements during treatment?
Absolutely. We coordinate with your physician to monitor anemia and adjust supplementation as bleeding improves.
Will acupuncture regulate my cycle length too?
Yes, treatment typically normalizes both flow volume and cycle length, creating predictable, manageable periods.
Stop planning your life around bathroom proximity and spare clothing. Your body can menstruate normally without monthly hemorrhaging that leaves you exhausted and anemic. Our proven acupuncture protocols have helped thousands of women achieve healthy, manageable periods without hormones or surgery.
Reclaim your energy and freedom today. Schedule your consultation and discover how acupuncture for heavy periods can transform your monthly experience from crisis to routine. Our experienced practitioners provide the expertise and support needed for lasting flow normalization.

Can’t say enough. My husband and I have seen instant improvement in our health. The staff are nothing shy of INCREDIBLE. You don’t feel like just another number – they are warm and caring. Highly recommend to make this place a part of your self care regimen!!!!! Thank you healers!!!!
Dr. Logman is quite incredible! I’m an individual who is very active and likes to push physical boundaries in training … Coming from Long Island, I was certainly pretty jacked up physically, but within one session, I felt significantly better… She’s 1000% worth seeing regardless of your location. Thank you for actually being the healers we need!
I was in such great hands with BK. As a lifelong sufferer of mental illness, acupuncture made me feel like a million bucks. Just so you know, you need more than 1 visit to recover from whatever ailments. Now that I’ve had 5, I feel like a whole new person. So glad this place exists! Your health is your wealth, after all. I’ll be back for more!
Dr. Logman and her entire staff are all super nice and knowledgeable. I have been experiencing on and off back spasms for a really long time and feel like I may finally be in inching towards healing my lower back! Every session so far has left me feeling better and more relaxed.
The whole staff are friendly and helpful and have created a calm environment with great healing energy. BK, my acupuncturist, is a great listener and in addition to always making me feel great with his work offers helpful suggestions and exercises to work on between sessions.
Dr. Orna was absolutely fabulous! The whole team was welcoming and professional. They walked me through my problem areas and catered an amazing personalized experience based on my needs. I will definitely be back!
My favorite acupuncture practitioners work here. Definitely book Orna, BK and Rimma. (And Irinia, of course, when she’s in NYC) They’re excellent at treating chronic joint pain, mental/ addiction issues and neuropathy. But also go if you need an immune system boost, detox after drinking or have low energy levels. This is also the place to go, if like me, you’re jumpy with needles. They’re very skilled at making it a painless experience
The Adv. Holistic Center is incredible and really changed my life here in the city. Highly recommend for anyone experiencing physical pain, emotional regulation needs, overall wellness and wellbeing or anything in between including pilates and physical therapy needs. Yhenni who works at the desk, is so kind and helpful and always welcoming. She is quick to help you with any scheduling needs or questions. She is very knowledgeable about all things advanced holistic center! I am lucky to have received treatment from Dr Irina, who travels back and forth to her offices here in the city and in Miami, while she was here. I have received treatment here for my chronic migraines, TMJ pain, and emotional regulation, and Pilates work. I’m so grateful to have worked with Dr. Irina who is an incredible practitioner and Pilates instructor. Every experience with her was incredibly healing and treated with the utmost care. I always leave feeling better than when I arrived. The power of acupuncture and eastern medicine to help your body heal itself, is quite magical. The reformer pilates work is equally amazing- I left feeling 6 inches taller and stronger. In 3 days, my TMJ pain was fixed, and migraines decreased. I even received a comprehensive list of foods that will help and hinder my migraines so I am able to implement change in my daily life to see improvements from the root of the problem! My chronic migraines have decreased for the first time in 10+ years with NO PRESCRIPTION MEDICATION! I can without a doubt say this practice has contributed for the betterment of my overall quality of life and care for myself. All thanks to the amazing work of Dr Irina and her staff at the Advanced Holistic Centers. I’m so grateful to have found such a wonderful, healing space! I recommend this space to my family and friends both in Florida, and the city.
Love this practice! I’ve been receiving treatments since June at the NYC locations and have worked with Rimma, Gary, and even Irina herself. Thanks so much for such gentle and loving care. I really have been trying to give my belly, uterus, ovaries, and overall body some love throughout the day, minding my breathing and really focusing on the tools each practitioner has given me. I loved our session on monday so much, thank you for that time. One of the very best acupuncture snoozes I’ve ever had!
I’ve been coming here for quite some time now and I must say, from the admin to the doctors, everyone is amazing. Either Anna or Yhenni will greet you with a smile and take care of all your admin needs. I have never received a treatment that I didn’t like. This is why I continue to go back. Today, Orna treated me and she was absolutely amazing. She goes above and beyond and is always spot on with treatments.
Beautiful clinic and amazing providers. Im a physical therapist and used my body a lot for work, often resulting in low back pain and shoulder/neck pain. I always come to see Orna for great trigger point acupuncture. She’s also helped me with gastro and sleep issues. Highly recommend
Honestly she has the golden touch. My lower back was killing me could barely stand straight. Even sneezing would hurt. But Just after 1 session I felt alive again. Would highly recommend anyone who has lower back pain or any pain.
Outstanding and proffessional clinic. From the service and approach of the customer coordinatour through the Most . proffessional and sensitive doctor I went in with stressed muscles hardly able to move my leg and came out walking almost as usual after only 2 visits Highly reccomend
Suffering from back and neck pain, I finally decided to see Dr. Irina Logman. I can’t believe the immediate pain relief after only 1 session of acupuncture and manual therapy. Not only did the pain go away, I felt revitalized. I will definitely continue treatments with Dr. Logman. I highly recommend the Advanced Holistic Center for all your holistic care needs. I highly recommend seeing Orna! She will make your body melt.
This place miraculous!! I am so grateful and happy that have found this clinic. I’ve been in so much pain and illness with my digestive issues since moving to the United States in 2019. I’ve gone through three gastroenterologists who while experts, only treated symptoms of what has become a chronic problem with over medication and poor diet (there’s something about American food and ingredients that mess up my digestion). Rimma has been treating me since I’ve signed up for acupuncture. She’s a professional but also very caring and warm. She’s done amazing work with my digestive system, muscle pain, and migraine complimenting acupuncture with cupping and gua sha. She’s also treated me when I had colds and also my occasional muscle pain from exercising. Dr. Irina treated me in one session where she used electrolysis which resulted to the best releasing cleanse I’ve had in a very long time. I look forward to my biweekly sessions especially on Sundays as it’s my self-care day. I feel healed but I’m still in my journey towards become holistically healthy. I can’t thank this place enough.
