Women’s bodies differ from men’s in many subtle ways and can benefit from specifically addressing their unique needs. At some point in their life almost every woman experiences the unpleasant and often distressing symptoms of premenstrual syndrome (PMS), perimenopause, menopause and vaginal yeast infections. The severity of PMS, perimenopausal and menopausal symptoms greatly varies depending on the woman and can affect body and mind so severely that it interferes with everyday activities. Women are also susceptible to other medical problems including high risk of stroke, heart disease, endometriosis, ovarian cysts, cervical dysplasia, fibrocystic breast lumps, and breast cancer.

Our Practitioner’s Holistic Recommendations

Dr. Nick LeRoy, Holistic Medicine | Profile
Many health challenges facing women are ultimately due to hormonal imbalances arising from poor dietary habits and stress. Have your “free” hormones tested to develop an effective treatment regimen.

Hormonal imbalances must be treated at their root, and that usually involves assisting with proper detoxification and nutritional support. Sometimes natural hormone therapy is useful until the body becomes balanced once again.

Women have a variety of unique issues as caregivers, household managers, mothers, wives, etc. and are expected to be able to ‘handle’ everything. These emotional stresses can manifest as physical problems or depression from trying to be superwoman.

By listening to the client’s view of what is going on, I energetically and intuitively balance the energy system, with the non-touch method of Chinese Energetics, changing her to be energetically ‘strong’ to the issues that are weakening her, thus helping the person feel and know that they can handle whatever may come up.

Transitioning through perimenopause and menopause is a holistic experience that involves profound changes spiritually and emotionally, as well as physically. Rarely can this life transition be ignored. By embracing the changes with an attitude of self-discovery, we can reap the rewards of becoming a Wise Woman. On a practical level, be sure to make time for yourself, eat well, exercise, and provide for enough sleep and rest. Supplements and herbs are available over-the-counter to help achieve sleep and ease symptoms.

I work with women to assess where they are in their transition by history, blood work, diagnostic testing, physical exam, and intuitive or energetic exam when indicated. We develop a healing plan that addresses dietary, exercise, sleep and rest, life goals, relationship issues. It may include therapies such as supplements, herbs, bioidentical hormones. The plan often includes energy healing, meditation, and journaling.

Hormonal imbalances are not the only determinant of severe PMS/cyles, endometriosis, infertility, anxiety, and menopause. In a holistic mindset, it is important to also look at overall choices in lifestyle, past experiences/memories, how you think & perspective in life which leads to the energy & body that you create.

The conscious mind runs your life with the decisions/thoughts you have all through the day but the subconscious mind runs your body & holds all your memories. Consciously you may know 100% that you want to increase health, but the subconscious mind & body must be aligned with these same desires in order for it to manifest. At TLC, we utilize techniques that update the body & mind so that each are working with you to create the life you want.
