Acupuncture at the Heart of Monika’s Practice
Specialized expertise in acupuncture and women's health
Women's health is one of Monika's main areas of expertise.
She supports women at different stages of their lives by tailoring her sessions to their individual circumstances, the symptoms they are experiencing, and any ongoing medical treatment.
Acupuncture is used here as a complementary approach: it does not replace a medical or gynecological evaluation, treatment, or follow-up when these are necessary.
Acupuncture that goes beyond women's health
While women's health is a significant part of her work, Monika's practice is not limited to that.
She also sees women and men for other acupuncture-related concerns, including stress management and certain conditions commonly treated with acupuncture.
Rather than applying the same protocol to a given symptom, Monika takes the situation as a whole into account in order to tailor the acupoints and techniques used during each session.
Education, Experience, and Professional Recognitions
Are the sessions covered by supplemental insurance?
Some supplemental insurance plans may cover part of the cost of sessions. However, coverage depends on your policy, the type of therapy you receive, and the therapist you choose.
Before your first appointment, we recommend that you contact your insurance provider directly and provide them with the following information:
- the therapist's name;
- the therapy in question.
The therapists at La Clinique Naturelle hold professional accreditations that vary depending on their specialty, including accreditation fromASCA and/or RME. However, these accreditations do not automatically guarantee reimbursement for sessions: only your insurance provider can confirm the exact terms of your coverage.
