Feeling tired? Losing muscle? Struggling with pain or memory loss? Did it begin after age 40 or 50? Could it be your brain and muscle hormones?

Estradiol, progesterone, and testosterone don’t just influence symptoms—they regulate mitochondrial energy production, oxidative stress, calcium handling, and even apoptosis. This is why we applaud the FDA's recent changes to HRT labeling led by Dr. Makary. As the knowledge spreads with this announcement, women are rushing to get back on HRT, or begin for the first time, triggering a national HRT shortage for 2026.

Now you know why we consider it essential to check your brain and muscle hormone levels as part of your routine health evaluation after age 40. Have you checked your hormones recently?

Do you know Dr. Long is trained in acupuncture? We combine conventional medicine with acupuncture and other holistic care options to optimize your health.

Acupuncture is a wonderful strategy to influence the nervous system, and modulate the immune system. It is helpful for all sorts of ailments, including certain side effects of chemotherapy.

Cancer-related cognitive impairment — often called “brain fog” or “chemo brain” — has been shown to affect about 40% of breast cancer survivors, making it difficult for them to focus, work, and perform daily tasks. But acupuncture may help alleviate this brain fog, according to a rigorous phase 2 clinical trial conducted by the Integrative Medicine and Wellness Service at Memorial Sloan Kettering Cancer Center (MSK). The study found that acupuncture doesn’t just boost someone’s perception of their cognitive abilities, it actually improves their performance on standardized tests. Learn More
