When hormones become imbalanced or deficient, whenever possible, we want to encourage the body to rebalance itself.
We can accomplish this by eliminating stress ( ie, by simplifying our lives, being consistent with prayer and meditation, daily exercise, regular massages (See our Spa Treatments page) supplying the body with proper nutrients through vitamins, minerals, essential fatty acids, etc; supporting glandular health (ie. adrenals, thyroid, ovaries, etc.) through herbs,
vitamins and or glandular; encouraging the liver to detoxify (your liver is your filter and can be a tremendous ally when hormonal levels get excessive) through many possible ways (including our Liver Detox Tea(Detox Treatments page), Liver / Gallbladder Tincture or doing our Liver Cleanse Detox Protocol (See our Detox Treatments).
There are times when hormones can be replenished with plant-derived bio-identical hormones. These hormones are chemically indistinguishable from the body’s own hormones.
These formulations are designed to meet the unique individual needs of each person through custom-blending at a compounding pharmacy (a pharmacy that hand mixes custom prescriptions).
These compounded natural hormones are a wonderful alternative to standard hormone replacement and can be put into any dose, strength, composition or delivery system that works best for each patient’s unique needs.
How do we determine the unique needs of our patients?
* Through a thorough interview and physical exam
* Through testing hormonal levels (most labs are covered by insurance)
* By blending the art of science and medicine.
