At Naturamed, we don't just stick needles in and hope something happens. Treatments are based on a real assessment of what's going on with you.
Traditional Chinese Medicine: Katarzyna uses classic TCM methods - tongue and pulse diagnosis, pattern differentiation, meridian theory - to see what's going on in your body energetically. This system has treated women's health problems for thousands of years.
Women's Hormone Expertise: Most acupuncturists treat everything—sports injuries, general wellness, you name it. We focus on women's hormones. That means we know how acupuncture affects estrogen, progesterone, cortisol, thyroid, and your entire endocrine system. When you're in your 40s with perimenopause or dealing with PMDD, you need someone who understands the hormone mechanics.
Works With Functional Medicine: What sets us apart from other Orlando acupuncture practices: we work with functional medicine. When it helps, we team up with Dr. Karolina Skrzypek's practice for hormone testing. This gives us actual data to guide your treatment and see what's working. Eastern and Western medicine together beat either one alone.
Herbal Medicine: Acupuncture works better with Chinese herbs. Katarzyna makes custom herbal formulas for your specific symptoms. These aren't generic supplements—they're traditional formulas refined over centuries.

Does acupuncture hurt?
Does acupuncture hurt?
No. The needles are thin - about the width of a hair. You might feel a small pinch when they go in. Some points are more sensitive, but it's not painful. Most people find it relaxing enough to fall asleep during treatment.
How many treatments do I need?
How many treatments do I need?
Depends on what we're treating and how long you've had it. New issues might respond in 4-6 sessions. Chronic hormone problems or long-term pain usually need 10-12 sessions over 2-3 months. Each treatment builds on the last one.
How soon will I feel better?
How soon will I feel better?
Some people notice changes right away - better sleep that night, less pain within 24 hours, feeling calmer. For hormone issues, most women see improvement around week 3-4. Bigger changes happen by week 8-12. We check progress at every visit and adjust.
Is this covered by insurance?
Is this covered by insurance?
Some plans do, but coverage varies. Most HSA and FSA accounts cover acupuncture. Call your insurance and ask about acupuncture benefits and whether they require in-network providers.
Can acupuncture help with fertility?
Can acupuncture help with fertility?
Yes. Research shows acupuncture increases blood flow to the uterus, regulates cycles, reduces stress hormones, and supports egg quality. Many women use it alongside IVF or IUI. I work with your fertility doctor when needed.
What's the difference between acupuncture and dry needling?
What's the difference between acupuncture and dry needling?
Acupuncture is Traditional Chinese Medicine. It treats hormones, digestion, sleep, stress, and pain. Dry needling just targets muscle trigger points. I trained in classical acupuncture, not dry needling.
Is acupuncture safe during pregnancy?
Is acupuncture safe during pregnancy?
Yes, when done by a licensed practitioner. It helps with nausea, fatigue, back pain, anxiety, and labor prep. I modify point selection based on your trimester and avoid certain points. Many women use acupuncture throughout pregnancy.
