from 2020-08-21T04:00
Michelle Oravitz L.Ac, FABORM is an acupuncturist, ayurvedic practitioner, and certified hypnotherapist specializing in fertility health. Michelle was inspired to change her career from architecture to acupuncture after having her own reproductive imbalances resolved by her acupuncturist. Her method of treatment encompasses not only herbs and acupuncture, but also incorporates diet, supplements, essential oils, and most importantly the mind and how it influences conception. She helps women and couples both online and in person, and is the host of The Wholesome Fertility Podcast.
In today’s episode Michelle shares how the phases of the menstrual cycle are broken down in Chinese Medicine, and why your period has always been considered a vital sign in Eastern Medicine.
