36. The Benefits of Acupuncture for Women’s Health with Ali Damron

Acupuncture is a method of medicine that I don’t have a lot of knowledge on, so as usual, I found an expert to fill us in. Ali Damron shares so much information on what acupuncture is, when it’s used, and how it works. We discuss her experience with acupuncture for women’s health and hormones and her close work alongside OBGYN physicians and other medical professionals. Ali answers your questions such as whether or not acupuncture is painful, how long sessions take, and what the science behind it is.  Ali is a wife, mother to two sweet little boys, a licensed acupuncturist and a certified personal trainer. For the last eight years, she ran her own successful private practice as an acupuncturist. Over the last five years, she’s taken her message to the online platform where she does 1:1 consultations on women’s health and hormones, offers digital courses and has a podcast called The Ali Damron Show.
