5 things that mean your period isn’t normal





Do you have symptoms like these every month? 
moodiness
cramps
bloating
nausea
clots

If so, if you suffer through your period; that’s not normal. Your period is just a time of the month where your body excretes materials that weren’t used that month for pregnancy. Just like our other excretory system (bowels, bladder) it should be a flow, just a flow, not a nightmare. You would know if your bladder/urinary system wasn’t working up to par. You’d have symptoms - pain, burning, difficulty urinating. Or, if you feel bloated, constipated, have gas pains you know that your bowels aren’t working right. It’s the same exact thing with your period. It should just flow. Counter-flow (cramps, clots, moodiness) are signs that you need some help. I’ve had women tell me that “my period was fabulous!”. That might sound strange but when you’re used to suffering a few days a month, unsuffering is wonderful.

Here’s what people are saying about Dr. Martha Lucas, L.Ac. who for over 15 years has been using Chinese medicine to help people feel and look better:
Best in Denver: I have been to several other practitioners over the course of 9 years and Dr. Lucas is the best acupuncturist in Denver!

What a life saver!: After getting a full work up from a neurologist and being prescribed medications that we were uncomfortable giving our child, we were referred to Dr. Lucas. What a life saver! Our daughter is now feeling much relief and is able to go about her days. We couldn’t be happier with the treatments and Dr. Lucas’ willingness to explain everything. 

Sinuses: My sinuses were a mess. But after the needles and Dr. Lucas did their work I’m much, much better!

She gets results! - I’ve been seeing Dr. Lucas for about 5 years for all kinds of needs. I HIGHLY recommend her services! She’s great, knowledgable, and gets results.

Results surpass those of western medicine: I have been getting great results from Martha’s work. I am a disabled vet and her work has surpassed much of the regular western medicine I have experienced. Thank you, thank you, thank you!

Gentle with the needles: I have been seeing Dr. Lucas for a bout 3 years. I love and feel a sense of calmness after each session. She is very gentle with the needles and can tell when you are not doing well through her your pulses (pulse diagnosis is her specialty). I highly recommend going to her for everything; it is well worth it. She is a very compassionate person.

From Dr. Lucas - WHY AM I ABLE TO GET YOU SUCH GOOD RESULTS Because I can give you an expert diagnosis to determine the cause of your symptoms or disease and then TREAT IT!  
Chinese medicine treatment works best when your practitioner KNOWS HOW TO MAKE A DIAGNOSIS. Take it from someone who teaches Chinese medicine students from all over the world - the proper diagnosis leads to more effective treatment.

On the other hand - got good health?  Acupuncture/Chinese medicine works to maintain that.  But if you don't feel the best that you can or as good as you think you should, call me at 303-947-6224 or email me DrMLucas@AcupunctureWoman.com.  Even though I feel great, I receive acupuncture every other week whether I need it or not …. 

Bio: Dr. Martha Lucas, L.Ac. is an internationally recognized expert in Chinese medicine for pulse diagnosis (internal medicine and emotional health issues) and Mei Zen Cosmetic Acupuncture.  She can be reached at DrMLucas@AcupunctureWoman.com or 303-947-6224. "I specialize in 3 things because I believe that it is important to have focus in order to do your best work and get people back on track quickly.  I want to help you have babies and excellent women's health, get you out playing basketball or football or in that triathlon sooner and stronger, and keep your skin looking its best!!!"

INSURANCE BILLING: - you can go here to fill out an insurance verification form so that we can check your coverage:
1. Federal employees - BCBS groups 104 and 105 receive 24 acupuncture treatments per year! 
2. Planned Parenthood of the Rocky Mts has great acupuncture coverage for employees.
3. Work for Children's Hospital? - great acupuncture coverage.
4. CIGNA/Great W Healthcare - has plans that cover acupuncture
5. United has plans that cover acupuncture.
6. Work for Centura???? Call me.
As a service to you, we find out whether or not your health insurance covers acupuncture and our other therapies and when it does we bill your insurance.  There are plans that cover it, some pay for unlimited visits or enough visits for you to come every other week and be the healthiest employee in your company! Why not be healthier! That's what the insurance company realizes - preventing surgeries, the use of expensive pain killers, and your having to have medical procedures saves them (and you!) money.  Even preventing the common cold saves your employer money.

Want to lower your antidepressant or anti-anxiety prescription load?

You CAN lower your prescription drug load.


Hear it right from one of my patient's own testimony:
Genbook review:
Awesome-Highly recommend!
I have been going to Dr. Lucas for about 6 months. She has helped alleviate my back pain, get my allergies under control, and lessen my depression. Since seeing her, I no longer take an antidepressant ...I'm on 1/2 does of my anti-anxiety drug and have started running and doing crossfit (activities that I have not been able to do for 7 years). Her herbal supplements and skin care are amazing as well!"

You CAN get well!

Acupuncture is for kids too

Yes, acupuncture works perfectly on young ones ... in fact, they generally have more pure energy to work with than with adults so they can get fast, fabulous results.


5 star review about children - including special needs
Simply exceptional
"Martha has been treating my children and I since they have been really small infants. She can calm my Special needs sons central nervous system and help him to control his emotions. She has boosted all our dietary and metabolic systems keeping us fit, healthy, and active. Great post-surgical realignment and boost. Whether acute issues such as cold and flu or maintenance, acupuncture plays a central role in our ongoing health care and medical treatment needs "
I want to thank Jonathan Rose for this review!

Zzzzzzz .... need help getting a good night's sleep?

Having a hard time with sleep?

Did you know that nearly nine million Americans take prescription sleeping pills in order to try to get a good night's sleep? Nine million!!

Prescription drugs that you use to help you sleep don't come risk-free ..... they can be associated with depression, disorientation, sometimes risky behavior like sleepwalking or even sleep driving (!).

Now don't get me wrong,
insomnia comes with risks too - increased risk of depression, heart disease, infection and even the risk of obesity because of a diminished ability to make good quality food choices.

You can now go here
