This poor lady had been struggling with her menstrual cycle for years. They were so painful, ‘crampy’ and looong! It would start with 3-4 days of light brown-ish blood, then 3 flooding days, then light again 3-4 days of lighter and brighter blood.
The actions she needed were uterine astringents. Watch how her herbal protocol was put together.
Case Study: Red Raw Skin
“I honestly can’t believe the difference in my skin” said James. It had only been 6 weeks since our last appointment and the quality of his skin had really improved.
Previously it was so dry that it was cracking, itching, and bleeding. In fact, his tongue was deep red, with no coating and his lips were flaking. Poor James couldn’t sleep, mainly due to the itching, but it was also being compounded by increasing anxiety levels since starting his new job.
Choosing the right herbal combination depends on what actions need to be achieved. Watch to see how James' protocol was put together.
Wired yet Tired - something we all hear quite a lot!
This case involved a wired lady who literally questioned everything I said, MULTIPLE times in detail. She appeared to be coping but complained of feeling "wired yet tired".
She also experienced nervous palpitations, with feelings of anxiety. Now at age 36, she wanted to try for a second baby. Previously she had 3 miscarriages, 1 beautiful baby, and no signs of any pregnancy since. She wasn't interested in 'bedroom activity' as both her and her husband were incredibly busy.
Watch the video to see how her protocol was put together.
