Hormones

Hormonal balance is within reach

There are many natural remedies available to help us help you achieve hormonal balance. An initial consultation and/or a saliva hormone test will help reveal which will be the best treatment protocol for you. All treatments are individualized in order to achieve the best possible results.

You may pick up the test kit from the BetterHealth Naturopathic Clinic, prior or during your consultation (Kit Fee applies)

Hormone imbalances can be an underlying contributing factor to many conditions such as:

    • PMS
    • Menopause
    • Immune function
    • Mental health disorders
    • Fatigue
    • Sleep disturbance
    • Night sweats
    • Mood swings

Rapid advances in our understanding of hormone related conditions and the effective use of specific nutrients to support and balance hormones enables us to provide relief from many common women’s conditions.

Symptoms such as bloating, breast tenderness and sugar cravings can be a thing of the past with the appropriate treatment. Did you know that the seemingly harmless craving for savories may be linked to adrenal fatigue/insufficiency, which in turn are responsible for healthy hormone function?

During a consultation we will be able to also assess if other herbs are needed in combination such as Evodia, Ginger, Cinnamon or Dong Quai, to mention a few. There may be a need for mineral supplementation, nutritional support or an initial detoxification program before your body can fully recover.

The value of a personalized treatment program should not be underestimated as hormonal imbalances may often be related to other non-apparent issues such as adrenal fatigue.

(Don’t forget that your man has hormones too & they affect his prostate health, fertility, moods, impotence and weight- we can look after him too.)
