A passion for caring.
Dr. Stefanie Sanger Woollen has always had a strong interest in women’s health issues, and it was her initial interest in Obstetrics that lead her to her current practice. Many women’s health issues respond phenomenally well to chiropractic, acupuncture, and NAET treatments, and Dr. Stefanie is overjoyed to have helped many women through conception and pregnancy, to birth, menopause and beyond. Dr. Stefanie’s work with women’s health issues includes:
Infertility Acupuncture has the potential effect of improved ovarian and follicular function and can increase blood flow to the endometrium, helping to facilitate a thick, rich lining. Acupuncture is often most effective for those couples experiencing a functional problem like irregular ovulation, rather than a structural problem like a blockage in the sperm ducts.
Pregnancy Dr. Stefanie can provide relief for many ailments of pregnancy, including reflux/heartburn, constipation, ligament pain, headaches and, of course, back pain. Pregnant women undergo neuromuscular and biochemical changes that can be eased through chiropractic treatment. Adjustments, especially to the pelvis, can help the birth move along more quickly and with less pain by ensuring that the joints that are stressed so much during birth will be moving properly.
In addition, acupuncture is beneficial during pregnancy for conditions such as edema, nausea, migraine headaches, breech position, and sciatica. It also facilitates the induction of labor.
Post-Partum Issues Dr. Stefanie's individualized treatments can help with many post-partum issues, including fatigue, post-partum vaginal discharge, post-partum depression, mastitis, insufficient or excessive lactation, and post-operative healing.
Hormonal Imbalances Research has also shown that acupuncture has been proven to be beneficial for gynecological conditions such as menopause, irregular menses, anovulatory cycles, luteal phase defect, endometriosis, and "unexplained infertility".
