Premenstrual Syndrome is a common condition that occurs in the days leading up to menstruation. Symptoms vary from person to person and may include physical discomfort, muscle tension, mood changes, or increased sensitivity to stress.
Hormonal shifts involving estrogen, progesterone, and cortisol may influence how symptoms present. External stress, inflammation, and lifestyle factors can intensify how the body responds during this phase of the cycle.
Elevated stress levels can increase cortisol, which may influence other hormone systems in the body. Over time, this stress response may contribute to increased discomfort and more noticeable PMS symptoms.
Our team focuses on identifying stress sources and implementing supportive strategies through functional medicine, coordinated hormone care when appropriate, and lifestyle guidance.
Many women experience muscle tightness, pelvic discomfort, or lower back tension related to PMS. Physical therapy-based care can help address these symptoms through gentle movement, stretching, and targeted techniques.
These approaches are designed to promote relaxation, improve mobility, and support comfort during the menstrual cycle.
PMS support may involve multiple approaches depending on individual needs. In some cases, imaging or referrals may be recommended to rule out underlying conditions such as fibroids, cysts, or endometriosis.
Additional supportive options may include nutritional guidance, food sensitivity evaluation, acupuncture, or symptom-focused therapies aimed at improving quality of life.

Yes. PMS care is tailored to each individual based on symptoms, health history, lifestyle factors, and goals. No two care plans are exactly the same because cycles and stress responses vary widely.
Our providers focus on integrative and supportive care strategies. When appropriate, we may coordinate with or refer to other healthcare professionals for additional evaluation or medical management.
Your first visit includes a detailed health history review and a discussion about your symptoms and cycle patterns. From there, we determine appropriate next steps and outline a personalized care plan.
Timelines vary depending on the individual and contributing factors. Our team monitors progress over time and adjusts care recommendations as needed to support ongoing improvement.
