Holistic Treatment For Fibroids
Some women believe that the only way to deal with fibroids is by using invasive conventional methods such as surgery or hormone-blocking treatment but this is not the case. Thousands of women worldwide have managed to successfully use holistic treatment for fibroids and providing your fibroids are benign, you too could join them.
Although there are still many unanswered questions relating to fibroids, we do know that they are intrinsically linked to our hormone levels, what we eat and the lifestyles we lead. There are also links to our race. What we do not understand is why there are big variances between women who seem very similar but we know enough to know that for treatment to be successful, it must eliminate the root cause.
One way we can do this is by using holistic treatment for fibroids. This "whole body" approach ensures that no stone is left unturned. The types of treatment which might typically be included are as follows:-
* Liver detoxification
* Herbal cleansing
* Dietary measures, including the removal of pesticides and environmental toxins
* Regular exercise to increase circulation and help with healing and overall well-being
* Ensuring you drink at least 2 liters of water daily
* Acupuncture, acupressure and other point pressure therapy
* Herbal treatment to help relieve symptoms
* Emotional analysis to ensure that you are not excessively stressed
Whilst there is little doubt that holistic treatment for fibroids works, the stumbling block for many women is that you do need a degree of self-motivation. Because this is a "whole body" approach, it requires daily vigilance as you need to carefully monitor your diet and lifestyle choices on a daily basis and there is nobody who can "police" this other than you yourself.
However, if you are prepared to follow the treatment through, the results can be life-changing, with many women beginning to see a reduction in their symptoms within days and actual fibroid shrinkage within weeks.
The lack of comprehensive "real" help for women led an alternative practitioner to develop a complete system for shrinking fibroids which mirrored what she taught women in her busy clinic. Her unique, holistic treatment for fibroids using a 7 Step Plan has been successfully used by many thousands of women worldwide and if you would like to see details of what is involved, please visit my website, Shrink Fibroids.

What Is Naturopathic Medicine?
Naturopathic Medicine is a unique and comprehensive approach to improving health and treating illness. It includes diagnosis, treatment and prevention of disease using natural therapies. When seeing a Naturopathic Doctor (ND), you will not only learn about health and how it relates to your condition, but you will also be active in determining which treatment options are right for you.
The primary goal of naturopathic treatment is to address the cause of illness, rather than simply eliminate or suppress symptoms. The patient is seen as a whole person and the ND takes physical, mental, emotional, genetic, social and environmental factors into account when diagnosing and developing a treatment plan. Treatments are individualized according to each patient and based on both traditional therapies and the latest medical knowledge.
The primary naturopathic therapies include:
Clinical Nutrition examines the relationship between diet and health. Special diets may be recommended, and treatment may include nutritional supplements such as vitamins, minerals, enzymes, and other nutraceuticals.
Traditional Chinese Medicine evaluates the flow and balance of energy in the body and involves the use of both Chinese herbs and acupuncture.
Acupuncture is the insertion of very fine needles on the body's surface, used to influence physiological functioning of the body. It is based on the theories of Traditional Chinese Medicine. It strengthens and improves overall functions, enhances immunity and enables you to regain physical and emotional health. Acupuncture produces results by re-establishing balance and ensuring the continuous flow of vital life energy, called Qi (pronounced "chee").
Cosmetic Acupuncture, is a non-surgical face-lift that has been shown to be effective in reducing the signs of aging. Based on the theory of Chinese Medicine, it involves the insertion of very thin, disposable needles into acupuncture points in the face. This superficial insertion will stimulate both blood and energy to the face, which will nourish and moisten the skin. It also increases collagen production, which will fill out the lines and give firmness to the skin producing a healthy, glowing complexion.
Botanical Medicine stems from the theory that plants have powerful healing properties. Many pharmaceutical drugs have their origins in plant substances. Naturopathic physicians use plant substances for their healing effects and nutritional value.
Homeopathic Medicine is based on Law of Similar, “Like Cures Like”, dilute preparations of plant, mineral or animal substances are used to stimulate the body to heal itself.
Physical Medicine involves the treatment of pain, stimulates circulation and promotes healing. Some applications include heat/cold, light, ultraviolet and infrared, electrical pulsation, hydrotherapy, traction, massage and exercise.
Lifestyle Counseling identifies lifestyle, diet and environmental risk factors. Naturopathic Doctors make recommendations to optimize the physical, mental and emotional environment of the individual.
Diseases that are commonly treated with Naturopathic Medicine include:
Chronic Conditions
-High blood pressure, atherosclerosis and heart disease
-Heart burn, constipation and inflammatory bowel diseases
-Acne, psoriasis and eczema
-Allergies
-Insomnia, depression and anxiety
-Prostatitis and cystitis

Naturopathic Medicine is often referred to as complimentary medicine since it is meant to compliment traditional medical practices. It is still important to visit your regular MD for annual appointments and other problems that arise. However, next time you have a nagging problem that just won't go away, give your local licensed Naturopathic Doctor a try and heal yourself - naturally.
