General Health
Singing River offers a variety of services for women and men, including annual exams, menopausal and andropausal support, bio-identical hormone therapy and help with symptoms of premenstrual syndrome, migraines, etc.
While we do not do Obstetrics at Singing River Natural Medicine, we do use acupuncture and homeopathy to support our pregnant patients who have symptoms that arise during their pregnancy.
Acupuncture can often help to decrease early pregnancy nausea, turn a breech baby, and initiate labor once a woman has reached her due date. We also utilize acupuncture and herbs to help our patients successfully achieve fertility.
In addition, there are a number of natural therapies that can help during the postpartum period.
We also offer supportive therapies for men’s health including testosterone boosting, treatment for andropause, prostate issues, fertility issues, and erectile dysfunction.
Hormone and Neurotransmitter Balancing
Because of the demands placed on us by our busy lives, sleep habits, diet choices, toxins in our environment, and general stress we often feel overwhelmed, stressed out, irritable and exhausted which further affects our ability to cope.
Our bodies function under the command of a complex series of chemical signals that come in the form of hormones and neurotransmitters released from the brain and hormone-producing glands in a response to our environment. These hormones are profoundly affected by the fast-paced world in which we live, our diets, and the lifestyle choices that we make.
None of our hormones act alone. They all influence each other to affect organs, tissues, joints, behavior, mood, energy level, digestion, and every other vital function of the body.
Optimizing hormones and neurotransmitters through diet, nutrition, and supplemental care can impact our ability to tolerate the demands of our lives and improve our outlook.
At Singing River Natural Medicine, we are well trained at assessing this complex interplay between hormones through lab testing, physical exam, and taking thorough histories.
We routinely treat patients with botanical medicine, nutritional supplements, compounded hormones, and acupuncture who are being affected by hormonal changes including menopause, andropause, high-stress circumstances, autoimmune conditions.
