#Treatment Stages

Q Besides herbal medicine, what other methods do you use for ovarian cyst treatment? Do acupuncture, moxibustion, and sitz baths help?

A With customized herbal medicine as the foundation, we combine large-scale and navel moxibustion that delivers heat deep into the lower abdomen, mugwort steam sitz baths that aid pelvic circulation, and acupuncture that revives the flow of qi and blood. Using heat therapy in combination is the key.

Detailed Answer

Korean medicine treatment for ovarian cysts combines several methods. Customized herbal medicine tailored to your constitution and pattern (degree of dampness-phlegm, blood stasis, and coldness) is the foundation. To this we add large-scale moxibustion (wangtteum, large indirect moxibustion) and navel moxibustion that deliver heat deep into the lower abdomen, sitz bath therapy (jwahun) using mugwort steam to aid pelvic circulation, and acupuncture that helps with qi-blood circulation and pain relief. How much of each treatment is combined varies depending on the cyst's type, size, and accompanying symptoms, and we design this in detail at the first consultation.

Korean Medicine Clinic Perspective

The reason Dongjedang emphasizes heat therapy is that the Korean medicine causes of ovarian cysts, dampness-phlegm and blood stasis, tend to develop in a cold, stagnant pelvic environment. Rather than simply suppressing symptoms, our goal is to create a warm pelvic environment where blood circulates well, building an internal foundation in which cysts are unlikely to recur.
