Menopause denotes the cessation of menstruation
in women. To my knowledge, it is a normal physiological process
and should not be treated as a disease. With menopause, in
a very conservative interpretation, the absence of active
egg-producing follicles in the ovaries result in a significant
drop of estrogen and progesterone levels. In response, many
undesired symptoms occur.
How does Chinese Medicine explain Menopause?
Why do Chinese women breeze through it?
In Chinese Medicine, the the estrogen and progesterone
are regulated and controlled by the kidneys, who are the foundation
and support to the hormonal system. Consequently, when kidneys
are in force, the estrogen and progesterone levels drop at
a much lower rate, eliminating many uncomfortable symptoms
such as hot flashes and night sweats. In addition, kidneys
govern the liquids of the body as they regulate sodium-water
balance responsible for water retention. The stagnation of
liquids in the body explains weight gain, bloating along with
swelling. In response to efficient treatment, water will be
expelled from cellular tissue. In Chinese medicine, the kidneys
are also responsible for nourishing the bones, as they are
involved in the conversion of inactive vitamin D to the active
form. Kidneys
regulate blood pressure & proper functioning of the bladder.
By treating the kidney energy, you may comprehend how many
symptoms can be relieved in a most natural way. Acupuncture
will exhibit a tonic effect on the female system. Slow bone
mass is calcium leaching from the bone. There are ways of
strengthening bone mass in postmenopausal women by proper
diet and intake of minerals that are of absorbent quality.
Acupuncture treatment combined
with Homeopathic products help elevate kidney energy. These
products are chosen for your specific needs, they are uncostly
and are «non-hormone related.» If you desire to be among one
of those women who wishes to breeze through this transitional
moment of life,
embrace the Oriental approach and cherish life once more.
"Orient" your choice towards a healthy and natural
journey. Menopause
can be a very positive transition, a time of empowerment.
