Acupressure for menstrual complaints – natural relief
Menstrual pain, cramps, mood swings – in Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM), menstrual complaints are understood as signs of disrupted Qi and blood flow. Acupressure can help harmonise this flow – gently, without medication.
How acupressure can help with menstrual complaints
Menstrual pain (dysmenorrhoea)
Cramping abdominal pain before and during menstruation – acupressure can promote circulation and relieve cramps
PMS symptoms
Mood swings, irritability, breast tenderness – targeted pressure points can support hormonal balance
Irregular cycle
In TCM, an irregular cycle is understood as a sign of Qi stagnation
Back and headaches
Cycle-related pain in back, head and legs – common accompanying symptoms
Fatigue and exhaustion
Energy deficiency around menstruation – TCM approaches to strengthen Qi
Digestive complaints
Bloating and digestive problems during menstruation – targeted pressure points for the abdomen
How acupressure works for menstrual complaints
In TCM, meridians run through the body – energy pathways through which Qi flows. With menstrual complaints, there is often stagnation or deficiency in the liver, spleen or kidney pathways. Through targeted finger pressure on specific points, energy flow can be stimulated and blockages released.
The treatment is gentle, pain-free and requires no needles – unlike acupuncture, only the fingers are used.
