Impotence
A condition which men find difficult to attain and maintain an erection for full sexual intercourse. It can occur for physical and mental reasons. It is not the same as lost libido or premature ejaculation.
We use the 'Health Detective' Screening System in order to identify vitamin and mineral deficiencies. We check for toxicity levels because if the blood and lymph are toxic and the body is struggling to eliminate through the main channels of bowel, kidneys, liver and lungs, the body will not be in a position to want to pro-create.
Possible hormonal imbalances are checked as tired or stressed adrenal glands can mean that the body is running on empty. Identifying root causes rather than just using herbs to increase blood flow and libido are the key to reversing temporary impotence.
The time during the Screening is also used to assess lifestyle factors, some obvious such as smoking and some not so obvious such as the use of a laptop.
Herbal remedies and nutritional supplements are then prescribed to bring the body back to balance. A re-screen is suggested 6 weeks later.
Please telephone or email to book an appointment and ask for a 'Food/ Hormone/ Vitamin and Mineral' test. The test takes about an hour.
