We do not need to suffer and be in a constant battle with our bodies! Women are left with little answers for helping menstrual difficulties, infertiity, and suffer through hormonal challenges. By looking at the whole person through both eastern and western approaches we can help support the many challenges that would otherwise just be given hormones, antidepressants, or dismissed entirely.
