Breast Pain / Cysts
Women can get painful but benign breast lumps or cysts, particularly around the time of menstruation. This can be due to a hormonal imbalance or a blockage in the lymph nodes. Excess coffee, tea, chocolate and cola drinks can also contribute.
Natural Practices recommend:
Lymph Formula
Assists in the cleansing of the lymphatic system and circulation, supports the liver.
Dose: 60 drops in water or juice three times daily.
Female Tonic Irregular periods, General Hormone Balance
A good general hormone balancer bringing regularity to periods. Can help with excessive flow as well as scanty periods. Helps to balance the pituitary gland which regulates hormone production. Can assist with all symptoms relating to menstruation: irregularity, anxiety, irritability, breast tenderness, heavy clotting, bloating, bowel disturbances.
PMTonic - Heavy, Painful Periods, PMT, Cramps and Bloating
This formula is a woman's best friend. Taken ten days before a period is due, this will ease water retention, anxiety, irritability and nervous tension. Combined with a thorough bowel cleanse it can go along way to help menstrual difficulties.
We also have a very effective technique for helping with breast tenderness, this is demonstrated to you during a Lymphatic Drainage treatment and is something you can continue to practise at home.
More often than not, there are hormonal imbalances that can cause, not only breast pain, but mood swings or breakouts prior to menstruation. We use a Screening System called the 'Health Detective' to help to identify any hormonal imbalances. The hormones are so finely balanced and changes can be so subtle that they are not always picked up on blood tests. The test we use is so sensitive to slight changes and will accurately asses the endocrine glands and the hormones produced by the glands (56 of them!) We also identify nutritional deficiencies as a lack of certain nutrients can cause tenderness in the body, we even check for dehydration.
Please telephone or email to book an appointment and ask for the 'Hormone / Vitamin and Mineral Test'. This test takes about an hour.
The products Natural Practices recommend can be purchased from our on-line Shop or by telephone on 01625 549 000. We are aware that the on-line Shop leaves a lot to be desired and are currently working on making improvements.
