Nuyu Reflexology Description
Reflexology allows your nervous system to return to a more balanced state, allowing the body to heal itself and become more healthy. It rids the body of harmful toxins, improves circulation, balances the hormones and relaxes and calms the mind.
Reflexology is an excellent tonic for general wellbeing but it can be extremely beneficial in treating the following female specific conditions :
Fibroids - are benign (non cancerous) tumours that grow in the uterus. They can be as small as a pea or can grow as large as a melon. It is estimated that 20-50% of women have, or will have, fibroids at some time in their lives. They can cause varying degrees of pain and excessive bleeding usually during menstrual periods.
Endometriosis - said to be present when cells that normally line the womb are found elsewhere in the body, such as the outside of the fallopian tubes, the ovaries and the bladder. These cells behave in the same way as those lining the womb so, in response to the female hormones, they grow during the menstrual cycle and bleed during a period. This condition can also cause excessive bleeding and pain during a menstrual period.
Infertility - in women can be caused by the above conditions as well as several other conditions such as polycystic ovaries, blocked or damaged fallopian tubes and hormonal imbalances. One of the main and quite often hidden causes of infertility is stress. In a percentage of cases, the cause of infertility is unknown.
PMS - or premenstrual syndrome affects around 90% of menstruating women. For most women the symptoms are mild, but a small proportion finds their symptoms so severe they dread this time of the month. The most common symptoms are mood swings, irritability, crying for no particular reason, tiredness, abdominal swelling or bloating, weight gain and migraines.
The menopause - is defined as the end of the last menstrual period. The menopause occurs when the ovaries no longer respond to the controlling hormones released by the pituitary gland of the brain. As a result, the ovaries fail to release an egg each month and to produce the female sex hormones oestrogen and progesterone. Some women manage to get through the menopause without help but a large number of women do need help to get through this phase in their lives.
